Popescu a incalcat protocolul de functionare al PDL
Pentru o formatiune politica precum PSD este normal, in Constanta ne referim, sa nu existe reorganizari. PSD Constanta si-a demonstrat la alegerile locale forta. Deci nu exista loc de comentarii. Poate doar mici barfulite, asta in timp ce la altii – de exemplu la PNL, s-a trecut peste momentul semi-esecului (sau esec de-a dreptul?) si se intocmesc listele pentru Parlament. La PDL Constanta in schimb lucrurile sunt intr-o ceata totala. Nimeni nu are voie sa cracneasca despre stadiul intocmirii Biroului Permanent Local (BPL) al PDL Constanta (adica structura de conducere de la municipiu). Se stie doar Biroul Permanent Judetean (BPJ), cu presedinte Ion Popescu – de fapt tocmai el a fost cel care a intocmit dupa bunul plac BPJ-ul, iar apoi a nominalizat presedintele de la municipiu: pe Florian Constantin. Toate... „bune si frumoase”. Vorba vine, caci, dupa multe zile de mosmondeala, PDL Constanta inca n-a grait componenta de conducere de la municipiu, probabil pentru ca acest lucru va fi transmis azi sau maine, odata cu vizita lui Valeriu Stoica si a lui Costica Canacheu. Intre timp, pentru ca tot sesizam o debandada fara margini in PDL Constanta, anuntam si urmatorul aspect: nominalizarea facuta de Ion Popescu la conducerea Organizatiei Municipale incalca protocolul de fuziune dintre PD si PLD. Dar ce mai conteaza un amarat de protocol de acum... ani-lumina, cand la PDL toate se fac fara respectarea statutului acestui partid? Revenind la protocolul amintit de noi, pe care ne indoim chiar ca Ion Popescu, presedintele PDL Constanta, l-ar cunoaste, iata ce zice acest document: „In judetele in care Presedintele organizatiei judetene provine din fostul PD, organizatiile din municipiile resedinta de judet au presedinte provenind din fostul PD. In aceste cazuri, BPL este format din 7 membri provenind din fostul PD si din 5 membri provenind din PLD. Ceilalti 17 membri ai BP se vor distribui intre fostul PD si PLD potrivit raportului dintre rezultatele obtinute la alegerile europene din 2007 de organizatiile municipale ale celor doua partide. In aceste organizatii, un prim-vicepresedinte si secretarul general adjunct sunt desemnati de PLD”. In traducere: daca presedintele de la judet – in cazul nostru Ion Popescu – provine de la PD, presedintele de la municipiu-resedinta de judet (Constanta adica) trebuie sa fie tot din fostul PD. Ion Popescu provine din fostul PD, insa Florian Constantin... nici pomeneala! Este fost PLD-ist, la fel ca multi dintre oamenii de incredere cu care Ion Popescu s-a inconjurat, sub pretextul ca acum exista un singur partid – PDL. Dar, suntem curiosi sa vedem ce se intampla mai departe, mai exact cum vor veni Valeriu Stoica si Costica Canacheu sa valideze, la Constanta, un BPL care incepe cu incalcarea protocolului de functionare al partidului. Intuim de pe acum ca nu vor fi probleme, de vreme ce amandoi sunt sensibili la fostul PLD.

Renunta la functia din PDL daca nu iese parlamentar
Secretarul executiv al PDL Elena Udrea sustine ca va renunta la functia din conducerea democrat-liberalilor daca nu va castiga un loc de parlamentar la alegerile din toamna. „Daca voi pierde si nu voi fi parlamentar de Bucuresti, imi voi da demisia din functia de secretar executiv. Sunt un om care a facut politica asumat pana acum si voi continua la fel”, a afirmat Elena Udrea, intr-un interviu acordat unui cotidian central. Elena Udrea vrea sa candideze pentru un mandat de parlamentar, intr-un colegiu din sectorul 6 al Capitalei. Secretarul executiv al PDL a apreciat, in cadrul aceluiasi interviu, ca democrat-liberalii au „o sansa mare si unica” de a castiga alegerile si a precizat ca nu vor face nici o alianta preelectorala, care, ca principiu, nu ar fi blamabila. „Cred ca ar trebui sa luam foarte in serios statutul la care ne-au obligat adversarii nostri politici: singuri impotriva tuturor. Aici, Iliescu a dat semnalul: „Omorati PDL-ul si pe Traian Basescu, izolati-i!“. Toata lumea s-a aliat, si PSD, si PNL si PC. Nu stiu ce ar spune electoratul liberal daca PNL ar face alianta cu PSD. Trebuie sa ne bazam si pe responsabilitatea electoratului. Sper ca in toamna sa nu avem nevoie de UDMR. Cu cine sa faci alianta, cu Tariceanu si Olteanu, cu Iliescu si Hrebenciuc?”, a mai spus Elena Udrea.

COMENTARII
„Golanilor”, ieşiţi la vot!

Nu le este de ajuns majoritatea dobândită în alegerile locale, ei vor unanimitate. Vor să reducă opoziţia la neputinţă şi tăcere totală. Nu contează că şi consilierii opoziţiei au fost aleşi de cetăţeni ai Constanţei, aceia sunt alegători de mâna a doua, de vreme ce nu au mizat pe câştigători.
După ce şi-au făcut damblaua de a nu valida (fără motiv, doar pentru că „n-a vrut muşchii lor”) câţiva consilieri municipali şi judeţeni, pesediştii sunt consecvenţi în această direcţie, băgându-l la înaintare pe Dănuţ „Iepuraş” Moisoiu, omul lor, de curând exclus din PD-L.
Chiar dacă nu mai poate spera că va ocupa în continuare scaunul de consilier municipal ce i s-a lipit de fund încă din 1992, căci nu se mai bucură de sprijinul nimănui de la Centru, Moisoiu îşi continuă lupta în justiţie.
Amânările şi strămutările au ca singur scop acela de a-i ţine departe de posturile câştigate prin alegeri pe şefii PD-L Constanţa, avocatul Popescu fiind, de această dată, bătut cu propriile arme, pe propriul teren… Ghidonat de prietenul Mazăre şi de prietenul Constantinescu, care au învăţat de la avocaţi scump plătiţi (şi nu întotdeauna din bani privaţi) căile întortocheate ale justiţiei româneşti, „Iepuraş” va produce pierderi maxime partidului sub a cărui aripă şi-a promovat afacerile şi interesele în ultimii opt ani.
Aşa funcţionează clanul Mazăre, nu suportă opoziţia. Şi nu îi este de ajuns Constanţa, vrea să-şi extindă influenţa nefastă în toată ţara. Reţeta lor, care cuprinde mult tupeu, perseverenţă diabolică, demagogie ieftină şi pomeni asemenea, o echipă sudată - prin interese comune, prin servicii şi contraservicii măsurate în bani, afaceri şi bunuri imobiliare mai mult sau mai puţin curate, prin frica şi coalizarea fără fisură în faţa inamicului comun -, este recunoscută şi apreciată de conducerea PSD.
Radu Mazăre a decis să iasă pe scena mare a partidului, lansându-se ca adversar de serviciu al preşedintelui Băsescu, şi nu m-ar mira ca renumele primăraşului cel viteaz de la malul mării să fie folosit de partid în cursa prezidenţială.
Adrian Năstase mi se pare o variantă penibilă de candidat, mai ales după ce l-am auzit milogindu-se de colegii deputaţi să nu aprobe urmărirea lui penală, iar avansarea acestui nume (şi nu al necompromisului Cristian Diaconescu, de exemplu) ar putea fi o cacealma care pregăteşte surpriza.
După modelul cursei pentru primăria capitalei, pesediştii ar putea merge pe două variante câştigătoare: independentul Oprescu şi outsiderul Mazăre. Acesta din urmă vine cu succesul de la Constanţa, cu acreditarea ca inamic al lui Băsescu şi cu „farmecul interlop” gustat de babe impresionabile, tineri creduli şi băieţaşi de cartier care-l admiră pentru cât e de „jmecher”.
Şi cum ar putea refuza Radu, la o adică, oportunitatea de a intra în istorie şi a călca pe urmele idolului său Ion Iliescu? J Mai ales că excursiile în Venezuela şi discursul înălţător al lui Hugo Chavez, de care s-a declarat impresionat, i-au oferit, probabil, idei pentru upgradarea ideilor antemergătorului său în ale preşedinţiei…
Nu pot decât să constat că am ajuns foarte rău dacă alde Mazăre şi Nicuşor au ajuns să aspire la conducerea ţării. Trebuie să ne amintim că succesul lor - bazat pe promisiuni la patru ani o dată, pe lipsa de adversari cu anvergură şi pe prea obişnuitul gând „au furat, dar au făcut şi pentru noi câte ceva” - este lipsit de substanţă. Guvernarea lor la Constanţa este lipsită de viziune pentru viitor, bazată pe acumularea puterii în cât mai puţine mâini şi, aşa cum am arătat mai sus, pe distrugerea opoziţiei.
Extrapolarea la nivelul întregii ţări a acestui tip de gândire, poate combinat cu ceva din ideile dictatorilor sud americani admiraţi de Mazăre, ar putea însemna o ultimă răzbunare a bunicuţei.
Aşa că, „măi animalelor” şi „golanilor”, poate ar fi bine să începeţi să ieşiţi la vot!

President George W Bush backs Israeli plan for strike on Iran

As Tehran tests new missiles, America believes only a show of force can deter President Ahmadinejad

US President George W Bush

President George W Bush: US officials acknowledge that no American president can afford to remain idle if Israel is threatened

President George W Bush has told the Israeli government that he may be prepared to approve a future military strike on Iranian nuclear facilities if negotiations with Tehran break down, according to a senior Pentagon official.

Despite the opposition of his own generals and widespread scepticism that America is ready to risk the military, political and economic consequences of an airborne strike on Iran, the president has given an “amber light” to an Israeli plan to attack Iran’s main nuclear sites with long-range bombing sorties, the official told The Sunday Times.

“Amber means get on with your preparations, stand by for immediate attack and tell us when you’re ready,” the official said. But the Israelis have also been told that they can expect no help from American forces and will not be able to use US military bases in Iraq for logistical support.

Nor is it certain that Bush’s amber light would ever turn to green without irrefutable evidence of lethal Iranian hostility. Tehran’s test launches of medium-range ballistic missiles last week were seen in Washington as provocative and poorly judged, but both the Pentagon and the CIA concluded that they did not represent an immediate threat of attack against Israeli or US targets.


“It’s really all down to the Israelis,” the Pentagon official added. “This administration will not attack Iran. This has already been decided. But the president is really preoccupied with the nuclear threat against Israel and I know he doesn’t believe that anything but force will deter Iran.”

The official added that Israel had not so far presented Bush with a convincing military proposal. “If there is no solid plan, the amber will never turn to green,” he said.

There was also resistance inside the Pentagon from officers concerned about Iranian retaliation. “The uniform people are opposed to the attack plans, mainly because they think it will endanger our soldiers in Iraq and Afghanistan,” the source said.

Complicating the calculations in both Washington and Tel Aviv is the prospect of an incoming Democratic president who has already made it clear that he prefers negotiation to the use of force.

Senator Barack Obama’s previous opposition to the war in Iraq, and his apparent doubts about the urgency of the Iranian threat, have intensified pressure on the Israeli hawks to act before November’s US presidential election. “If I were an Israeli I wouldn’t wait,” the Pentagon official added.

The latest round of regional tension was sparked by the Iranian Revolutionary Guard, which fired nine long and medium-range missiles in war game manoeuvres in the Gulf last Wednesday.

Iran’s state-run media reported that one of them was a modified Shahab-3 ballistic missile, which has a claimed range of 1,250 miles and could theoretically deliver a one-ton nuclear warhead over Israeli cities. Tel Aviv is about 650 miles from western Iran. General Hossein Salami, a senior Revolutionary Guard commander, boasted that “our hands are always on the trigger and our missiles are ready for launch”.

Condoleezza Rice, the US secretary of state, said she saw the launches as “evidence that the missile threat is not an imaginary one”, although the impact of the Iranian stunt was diminished on Thursday when it became clear that a photograph purporting to show the missiles being launched had been faked.

The one thing that all sides agree on is that any strike by either Iran or Israel would trigger a catastrophic round of retaliation that would rock global oil markets, send the price of petrol soaring and wreck the progress of the US military effort in Iraq.

Abdalla Salem El-Badri, secretary-general of Opec, the oil producers’ consortium, said last week that a military conflict involving Iran would see an “unlimited” rise in prices because any loss of Iranian production — or constriction of shipments through the Strait of Hormuz — could not be replaced. Iran is Opec’s second-largest producer after Saudi Arabia.

Equally worrying for Bush would be the impact on the US mission in Iraq, which after years of turmoil has seen gains from the military “surge” of the past few months, and on American operations in the wider region. A senior Iranian official said yesterday that Iran would destroy Israel and 32 American military bases in the Middle East in response to any attack.

Yet US officials acknowledge that no American president can afford to remain idle if Israel is threatened. How genuine the Iranian threat is was the subject of intense debate last week, with some analysts arguing that Iran might have a useable nuclear weapon by next spring and others convinced that President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad is engaged in a dangerous game of bluffing — mainly to impress a domestic Iranian audience that is struggling with economic setbacks and beginning to question his leadership.

Among the sceptics is Kenneth Katzman, a former CIA analyst and author of a book on the Revolutionary Guard. “I don’t subscribe to the view that Iran is in a position to inflict devastating damage on anyone,” said Katzman, who is best known for warning shortly before 9/11 that terrorists were planning to attack America.

“The Revolutionary Guards have always underperformed militarily,” he said. “Their equipment is quite inaccurate if not outright inoperable. Those missile launches were more like putting up a ‘beware of the dog’ sign. They want everyone to think that if you mess with them, you will get bitten.”

A former adviser to Rice noted that Ahmadinejad’s confrontational attitude had earned him powerful enemies among Iran’s religious leadership. Professor Shai Feldman, director of Middle East studies at Brandeis University, said the Iranian government was getting “clobbered” because of global economic strains. “His [Ahmadinejad's] failed policies have made Iran more vulnerable to sanctions and people close to the mullahs have decided he’s a liability,” he said.

In Israel, Ehud Olmert, the prime minister, has his own domestic problems with a corruption scandal that threatens to unseat him and the media have been rife with speculation that he might order an attack on Iran to distract attention from his difficulties. According to one of his closest friends, Olmert recently warned him that “in three months’ time it will be a different Middle East”.

Yet even the most hawkish officials acknowledge that Israel would face what would arguably be the most challenging military mission of its 60-year existence.

“No one here is talking about more than delaying the [nuclear] programme,” said the Pentagon source. He added that Israel would need to set back the Iranians by at least five years for an attack to be considered a success.

Even that may be beyond Israel’s competence if it has to act alone. Obvious targets would include Iran’s Isfahan plant, where uranium ore is converted into gas, the Natanz complex where this gas is used to enrich uranium in centrifuges and the plutonium-producing Arak heavy water plant. But Iran is known to have scattered other elements of its nuclear programme in underground facilities around the country. Neither US nor Israeli intelligence is certain that it knows where everything is.

“Maybe the Israelis could start off the attack and have us finish it off,” Katzman added. “And maybe that has been their intention all along. But in terms of the long-term military campaign that would be needed to permanently suppress Iran’s nuclear programme, only the US is perceived as having that capability right now.”

President George W Bush lobbyist in ‘cash for access’ row

Click here for a brochure on Stephen Payne's company Worldwide Strategic Partners

"A lobbyist with close ties to the White House is offering access to key figures in George W Bush’s administration in return for six-figure donations to the private library being set up to commemorate Bush’s presidency.

Stephen Payne, who claims to have raised more than $1m for the president’s Republican party in recent years, said he would arrange meetings with Dick Cheney, the vice-president, Condoleezza Rice, the secretary of state, and other senior officials in return for a payment of $250,000 (£126,000) towards the library in Texas.

Payne, who has accompanied Bush and Cheney on several foreign trips, also said he would try to secure a meeting with the president himself.

The revelation confirms long-held suspicions that favours are being offered in return for donations to the libraries which outgoing presidents set up to house their archives and safeguard their political legacies.

Unlike campaign donations, there is no requirement to disclose the donors to the libraries, no limit on the amount that can be pledged and no restrictions on foreigners contributing.

During an undercover investigation by The Sunday Times, Payne was asked to arrange meetings in Washington for an exiled former central Asian president. He outlined the cost of facilitating such access.

“The exact budget I will come up with, but it will be somewhere between $600,000 and $750,000, with about a third of it going directly to the Bush library,” said Payne, who sits on the US homeland security advisory council.

He said initially that the “family” of the Asian politician should make the donation. He later added that if all the money was paid to him he would make the payment to the Bush library. Publicly, it would appear to have been made in the politician’s name “unless he wants to be anonymous for some reason”.

Payne said the balance of the $750,000 would go to his own lobbying company, Worldwide Strategic Partners (WSP).

Asked by an undercover reporter who the politician would be able to meet for that price, Payne said: “Cheney’s possible, definitely the national security adviser [Stephen Hadley], definitely either Dr Rice or . . . I think a meeting with Dr Rice or the deputy secretary [John Negroponte] is possible . . .

“The main thing is that he [the Asian politician] comes, and he’s well received, that he meets with high-level people . . . and we send positive statements made back from the administration about ‘This guy wasn’t such a bad guy, many people have done worse’.”

Payne said that he would use the services of Mark Pritchard, a Conservative MP who chairs the House of Commons all-party Russia group and was last week on the brink of signing as a paid “adviser” to WSP. Pritchard issued a statement saying that he had not done any work for WSP.

When confronted, Payne said that there would be “no quid pro quo” for any donation and added that his firm was “always above board”.

The White House said it would not be influenced by such donations."
