一昨々日の(2003/05/19)の夕刻、アフガニスタンの戦闘状況が載る「ジハド」電網宝庫を覗いたら、実に痛快な皮肉たっぷりの「親愛なるアメリカ」に対する「心の底からの感謝」の記事があった。
私は、これに自前の編集の週刊誌の記事風の見出しを付けて、英語のまま、広く転送した。
以下の長い見出しの拙訳：

Dear America
May 17, 2003
Excerpted from The Islamic Republic of Iraq? Iviews.com
Dear America,
Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for getting rid of Saddam Hussein, a man who has kept us from realizing our political power, a man who has forbidden us from many of our beloved customs. But, by God, we lived like the Imam Ali, and we died like Hussein. Today, you have destroyed Saddam's reign and ended his hold on Iraq. And today you have freed us, the Iraqi people and the Shiite people of Iraq.
Before Saddam, there was Ahmad Hassan Bakr (we doubt any of you know who this man is because you have been so ignorant of Iraqi affairs for so long) who also kept us from majority rule. Then there was Abd Al Karim Kassem, Colonel Abdul Salem Mohamed Aref, and many others as well. We were never really allowed to voice our concerns, our will, our aspirations.
But, thanks to you, America, our day has finally come. Today we celebrate the return of our beloved Ayatollah Mohammad Baqir al-Hakim, who was forced to flee for his life to neighboring Iran, our spiritual brothers, for the past 23 years.
Did you hear his speech today in Basra? "I am a soldier of Islam, serving all the Iraqi people. We don't want extremist Islam, but an Islam of independence, justice and freedom," he told the tens of thousands of us who gathered to hear him. (Associated Press)
No, we will not be like Iran. After all, we are Iraqis, all of us Iraqis with a historic role to play in world affairs. And Islam is the only way for us to move forward as a nation. Secularism in Iraq has failed us. It is not the way of our people. It is socialism; it is communism; it is un-Islamic.
No, America, today we declare with our voices that we will be Islamic, by God. And Islamic law will ensure that Iraqi society is a righteous one. Islamic law will root out the thieves, butchers, rapists, drug smugglers, prostitutes, and alcohol merchants.
Look how we are already rooting out those who insist on sinning. Just two days ago, in this very city of Basra, "two Christian businessmen were shot dead after ignoring repeated warnings from Islamic militants to stop selling liquor in their shops." (Los Angeles Times)
Thank you, America, for allowing us to realize our 1,400-year quest to build a just society on the land that saw the martyrdom of Ali, and his sons Hassan and Hussein. Did you not know that Iraq is holy land? Indeed, the whole world is God's, but Iraq is hallowed ground to us.
We are ready for rebuilding the country; we are already bringing the hospitals back, even though you did nothing to prevent their destruction. We have brought back social services, which you allowed brigands to destroy; we have armed men patrolling the streets because, since you came, people cannot sleep in their own houses anymore. We are making sure that Iraq stands on its feet again.
Now, please go home. You have removed Saddam. Thank you. Here are a few tons of dates; take some oil on your way out. We will even find you a few Baathist loyalists. But, really, that is it. Our beloved al-Hakim is here and he will lead us.
Go back to Kuwait - they worship the ground your dirty boots walk on.
Our time has come...

''The Islamic Republic of Iraq?''
Date: Tuesday, May 13, 2003 @ 00:00:38 CDT
Topic: Firas Al-Atraqchi
By Firas Al-Atraqchi
YellowTimes.org Columnist (Canada)
(YellowTimes.org) The Islamic Republic of Iraq is becoming more of a reality with every passing day of lawlessness and civil disorder in Iraq. This is not the ranting of naysayers or the defunct liberals who seek to find some fault with U.S. President George Bush's Iraq scenario. The likelihood of an Islamic Republic is voiced by a majority of Iraqis. Indeed, there are those who would prefer secularism, especially religious minorities such as the Chaldeans, Assyrians, and other Christians who number up to 800,000 in Iraq.
However, the momentum of political Islam began some 1,400 years ago and began to take on its present shape after the 1991 Gulf War. While much of this flux is being propagated by organized Shiite groups, it does envelope Sunni factions as well.
It would not be a surprise, then, to read something similar to the mock letter below in the coming days and weeks:
[後略]
----- 引用ここまで ------------------------------
この出典の方の記事では、「イラクのイスラム共和国」の歴史的必然性と、その必然性の主張が、「ブッシュ大統領のイラク作戦の筋書きの欠陥」をあげつらう繰り言のようなものではないと、強調されている。1,400年も前からの歴史があるのだと言うのである。
以上の議論の基本には、サダム・フセイン政権、または「アラブ民族主義」のバース党のイラク支配が、実は、アメリカの第二次大戦以来の中東支配の謀略、特には、イランのホメイニ革命、またはイ「スラム共和国」革命以後の対イラン謀略に由来するものだという歴史的認識が、横たわっている。
アメリカによる「サダム・フセイン打倒」は、実のところ、アメリカにとっては、「痛し痒し」といった感じで、矛盾だらけの無茶苦茶な方針だった。イラクでは少数派のスンニ派を基盤とするサダム・フセインの政権が、イランと近い関係の多数派のシーア派を押さえ込む構造になっていたのだから、サダムを倒せば、多数派のシーア派が、イスラム革命を起こし、イランと同様の反米国家になる可能性は、非常に高かったのである。そして、事実、その様に事態は進展しつつある。
このような位置づけのサダム・フセインの歴史的な評価に関して、私は、少し前の別件の通信で、以下に抜粋再録する様に、簡略に記したばかりだった。

【英米式腹話術掌人形テロリスト騙し受売り日本メディアと平和売人は匪賊知らずや】
[中略]
Perfect Enemy(ventriloquist and his puppet)
括弧内のわが注釈の拙訳：
「または「腹話術師と彼の操り人形」
英語では、この種の操り人形のことを、glove-pappetと呼ぶ。直訳すれば、手袋人形か掌人形であろうか。普通は、左手を人形の下から突っ込んで、胴体、両足、両手、頭部、唇を動かし、その人形と腹話術師が、「やらせ口喧嘩」をする。アドルフ・ヒトラーも、ヨセフ・スターリンも、サダム・フセインも、その種の掌人形芝居による世論操作の繰り返しである。
「やらせ口喧嘩」の形象化の代表例は、イギリス人の作家、ジョージ・オーウェルの『1984年』に描かれた「憎悪週間」の敵役、「人民の敵エマニュエル・ゴールドスタイン」と、「偉大な兄弟」が巨大テレヴィ・スクリーン上で演じる対決である。
『1984年』の英語版の初版の発表は、1949年と訳書の巻末に記されている。多分、間違いはないだろう。私は、別に、そこまで調べ直す気にはならない。1949年は、今から数えると、54年前である。以後、優に半世紀を超える時空で、もっともっと低級な技術による「やらせ口喧嘩」が横行し、「人民」を騙し続け、ついには、裸の猿の史上空前の一方的な大量殺戮にまで至った。
[後略]

ところが、これまた、歴史の必然の中での偶然と言うべきか、以下の記事によると、上記の「腹話術師」の左手に相当する「歴史的人物」とも言うべきサダム・フセイン政権の育ての親、CIAの大物スパイが、つい先日の5/13、86歳で癌死を遂げていたのである。以下の記事は、「訃報」または「墓碑銘」である。
彼は、「サダム・フセイン政権」の育成以前に、「元ナチ戦犯」をCIAに引き込む実績をも残しているのであって、いわばアメリカの悪の権化のような役割を果たしていたのであった。
私は、以下の記事に、週刊誌の電車の中吊り広告風の長い見出しを付けて、広く転送した。

A CIA Officer's Calamitous Choices
15.05.2003 [17:56]
Obituaries can barely scrape the surface of anyone's 86-year life. That's especially true for a covert intelligence officer whose responsibility for top-secret decisions -- and their consequences -- is rarely acknowledged.
But long before he succumbed to cancer on April 22, at the age of 86, retired CIA official James Critchfield had owned up to two of his decisions that were so momentous that they still influence the course of international events. One opened the CIA's doors to ex-Nazis. The other cleared the way for Saddam Hussein's rise to power in Iraq.
Critchfield made the first of his fateful decisions soon after he joined the fledgling CIA in 1948. Three years earlier, Hitler's master spy for the Eastern Front, Gen. Reinhard Gehlen, had surrendered to U.S. forces. He then proposed a deal. In return for his freedom, he would turn over his voluminous files on the Soviet Union along with his former agents who had scattered across Europe.
Both the Army and the CIA considered Gehlen a hot potato. They decided to assign someone the task of weighing the pros and cons of his offer. That someone turned out to be James Critchfield, a highly decorated Army colonel who had led wartime units in Europe and North Africa and had greatly impressed senior CIA personnel.
Critchfield was transferred to the Gehlen compound in Pullach, Germany. After a month or so of deliberation, he concluded that Washington would gain substantial advantage over Moscow by annexing the "Gehlen Org" into the CIA. He recommended that the agency do so and it did.
For the next four years, Critchfield remained Gehlen's CIA handler in Germany. Then, in 1952, West German Chancellor Konrad Adenauer chose Gehlen as the initial chief of the BND, West Germany's post-war intelligence agency. Critchfield said Gehlen -- on his death bed 27 years later -- thanked Critchfield for his vital assistance in the post-war period.
War Criminals
Secret documents declassified by the Clinton administration show that the CIA's collaboration with the ex-Nazis was not merely a marriage of convenience. It was more like a deal with the devil.
The documents reveal that Gehlen had hired and protected hundreds of Nazi war criminals. The more notorious of these Hitler henchmen included Alois Brunner, Adolf Eichmann's right-hand man in orchestrating the Final Solution, and Emil Augsburg, who directed the Wansee Institute where the Final Solution was formulated and who served in a unit that specialized in the extermination of Jews. Another was the former Gestapo chief Heinrich Muller, Adolf Eichmann's immediate superior whose signature appears on orders written in 1943 for the deportation of 45,000 Jews to Auschwitz for killing.
Furthermore, the Gehlen Org was so thoroughly penetrated by Soviet spies that CIA operations in Eastern Europe often ended in the murder of its agents. To top it off, the Org fed the CIA a steady diet of misinformation that fanned the flames of East-West hostility -- and thus assured the Org the continued patronage of Washington.
Many historians of the CIA's early days have concluded that letting the ex-Nazis in was the CIA's original sin, a moral failure that also resulted in the distortion of the intelligence given U.S. policymakers during the crucial early years of the Cold War.
Critchfield of Arabia
Critchfield's second fateful decision was in the Middle East, another flashpoint of Cold War tensions.
In 1959, a young Saddam Hussein, allegedly in cahoots with the CIA, botched an assassination attempt on Iraq's leader, Gen. Abdel Karim Qassim. Hussein fled Iraq and reportedly hid out under the CIA's protection and sponsorship.
By early 1963, Qassim's policies were raising new alarms in Washington. He had withdrawn Iraq from the pro-Western Baghdad Pact, made friendly overtures to Moscow, and revoked oil exploration rights granted by a predecessor to a consortium of companies that included American oil interests.
It fell to Critchfield, who was then in an extended tenure in charge of the CIA's Near East and South Asia division, to remove Qassim. Critchfield supported a coup d'etat in February 1963 that was spearheaded by Iraq's Baathist party. The troublesome Qassim was killed, as were scores of suspected communists who had been identified by the CIA.
Critchfield hailed the coup that brought the Baathists to power as "a great victory." Yet the reality is that the coup further destabilized an Iraq that had survived on the edge of crisis since its creation as a British mandate, with arbitrarily selected borders, in the wake of World War I and the collapse of the Ottoman Empire.
The 1963 coup also paved the way for another momentous political development. Five years later, Saddam Hussein emerged as a leader in another Baathist coup. Over the next decade, he bullied his way to power, eventually consolidating a ruthless dictatorship that would lead to three wars in less than a quarter century.
After invading Iraq and ousting Hussein from power in April 2003, U.S. occupiers of Iraq outlawed the Baath party that James Critchfield and the CIA had helped install in the 1960s. Critchfield died two weeks after Hussein's government was toppled.
In retrospect, the United States and the world paid -- and continue to pay -- a high price for the clandestine decisions made by Critchfield and his unaccountable CIA cohorts. As was true of many other "intelligence" decisions, actions perceived to be short-term political gains turned out to be long-term calamities, leading to corruption, disorder and human suffering.
Today, with the Washington information flow again tightly controlled and short on factual support, Critchfield's choices are a reminder that un-elected officials, operating in secret, still make policy decisions -- and that their actions can affect the lives of millions in the U.S. and around the world.

Former CIA agent dead at 86
Critchfield worked as spymaster, soldier, diplomat
By Mark Fritz, Associated Press
April 24, 2003
NEW YORK -- James H. Critchfield, a powerful CIA insider during the Cold War whose anti-Soviet missions included recruiting former Third Reich operatives and supporting the Iraqi political party that put Saddam Hussein in power, has died. He was 86.
Critchfield, a highly decorated U.S. Army colonel who led an assault battalion during World War II, died Tuesday from pancreatic cancer in Williamsburg, Va., his family said.
During his 26-year CIA career, Critchfield worked with the Dalai Lama of Tibet in a guerrilla war against Communist China and headed a CIA task force during the Cuban missile crisis. He also ran regional agency operations when the two superpowers raced to secure satellites first in Eastern Europe and then in the Middle East.
Timothy Naftali, an intelligence historian, said Critchfield's talents as a spymaster, soldier and diplomat put him at the heart of a half century of historic moments.
He described Critchfield's role in the CIA as analogous to that of a general commanding the most crucial missions.
"What happened in Jim's lifetime was staggering," Naftali said. "Fighting the Nazis, then seeing a new global conflict emerge and fighting in that, then seeing that conflict move to the Third World and becoming a general in that."
Critchfield was best known in intelligence circles as the CIA's liaison to the Gehlen Organization, a group of former Third Reich intelligence and military officials recruited by the Army because of their purported knowledge of the Soviet Union.
That group turned out to be tainted with fabricators, double agents and war criminals, though Critchfield said it was instrumental in building a defense and intelligence network for West Germany.
Critchfield himself drew parallels between the moral compromises made at the end of World War II with his recommendation in the early 1960s that the United States support the Baath Party, which staged a 1963 coup against the Iraqi government that the CIA believed was falling under Soviet influence.
"We knew perhaps six months beforehand that it was going to happen," he said during an interview with The Associated Press last month.
Critchfield described Saddam Hussein as a minor and peripheral figure in the Baath Party at the time. Saddam did not become a force in the party until the late 1960s and seized full power in 1979.
Born in North Dakota, Critchfield joined the Army and became one of the youngest colonels of World War II. He led the 2nd Battalion of the 141st Infantry of the 36th Division into France, Germany and finally Austria, and won the Silver Star, Purple Heart and Bronze Star, among other decorations.
