Wunschliste für Wikileaks

Beitragvon Britta » Sonntag 1. August 2010, 21:25

Daniel Ellsberg, 1971 verantwortlich für die Veröffentlichung der Pentagon Papiere, was für das Ende des Vietnam-Krieges sorgte, hat eine Wunschliste an Wikileaks veröffentlicht.

http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pentagon-Papiere

1. The official U.S. "order of battle" estimates of the Taliban in Afghanistan, detailing its size, organization and geographic breakdown -- in short, the total of our opponents in this war. If possible, a comparison of the estimate in December 2009 (when President Obama decided on a troop increase and new strategy) and the estimate in June or July 2010 (after six or seven months of the new strategy). We would probably see that our increased presence and activities have strengthened the Taliban, as has happened over the past three years.

2. Memos from the administration's decision-making process between July and December 2009 on the new strategy for Afghanistan, presenting internal critiques of the McChrystal-Petraeus strategy and troop requests -- similar to the November 2009 cables from Ambassador Karl W. Eikenberry that were leaked in January. In particular, memos by Vice President Biden, national security adviser Jim Jones and others; responses to the critiques; and responses to the responses. This paperwork would probably show that, like Eikenberry, other high-level internal critics of escalation made a stronger and more realistic case than its advocates, warranting congressional reexamination of the president's policy.

3. The draft revision, known as a "memo to holders," of the National Intelligence Estimate on Iran from November 2007. This has been held up for the past several months, apparently because it is consistent with the judgment of that NIE that Iran has not made a decision to produce nuclear weapons. In particular, the contribution to that memo by the State Department's Bureau of Intelligence and Research (INR), since the INR has had the best track record on such matters. Plus, estimates by the INR and others of the likelihood of an Israeli attack on Iran later this summer. Such disclosures could arrest momentum toward a foreseeably disastrous U.S.-supported attack, as the same finding did in 2007.

4. The 28 or more pages on the foreknowledge or involvement of foreign governments (particularly Saudi Arabia) that were redacted from the congressional investigation of 9/11, over the protest of then-Sen. Bob Graham (D-Fla.).


Sein Wunsch Nr. 1 ist die Veröffentlichung der Zahl der Kriegsgegner in Afghanistan, um zu beweisen dass durch Obama's Aufstockung der Truppen der Widerstand noch viel größer geworden ist.

Wunsch Nr. 2 wären die Memos aus der Zeit, wo die neue Afghanistan-Strategie beschlossen wurde. Da möchte er mehr über die interne Auseinandersetzung zur McChrystal-Petraeus Strategie draus erfahren.

Wunsch Nr. 3 betrifft Memos aus dem Jahre 2007 zum Thema iranische Atomwaffen, um zu beweisen dass Iran niemals geplant hat, Atomwaffen zu bauen.

Und Wunsch Nr. 4 wären die 28 oder mehr Seiten zum Vorwissen zu den Ereignissen von 911, besonders das von Saudi-Arabien, die nach dem Protest von Senator Bob Graham von der Untersuchungskommission zurückgezogen wurden.

Für alle 4 Fälle ist eine Untersuchungskommission des Senates gefordert. Ellsberg appeliert an alle, die Insiderwissen haben und Zugriff zu solchen Dokumenten, diese Wikileaks zuzuspielen, da damit die Untersuchungskommission Beweise in Händen hätte. Anonymität würde garantiert, auch für Zeugenaussagen vor den Ausschüssen.

People who lie to others have merely hidden away the truth, but people who lie to themselves have forgotten where they put it.
