Mr Sarkozy and the CIA. Based on Thierry Meyssan's "Operation Sarkozy"
By Robert Thompson
Jul 18, 2008, 10:19
Editor�s Note: The article discussed below is included at the end of the document, both in translation and in the original French. Translation into English by Robert Thompson, with additional edits from Siv O�Neall.
A most interesting study dated 14th July 2008 by Thierry Meyssan, entitled Operation Sarkozy, has been brought to my attention on how the CIA managed to place one of its agents, namely Mr Nicolas Sarkozy, as president of the French Republic.
To make his point, Mr Meyssan does not content himself with vague conjecture, but puts together checkable facts relating to the relationship between our President and the CIA (the well-known terrorist organisation financed by the tax-payers in the USA), and the USA establishment in general, with a view to ensuring that French policy should be dramatically re-aligned to serve the interests of the present USA administration (not, of course, the people of the USA).
The links between various arms of the USA establishment and Mr Sarkozy are much closer than I could ever have imagined, although I was aware of a fair number of the facts reported and examined by Mr Meyssan. I had not however thought, and this is indeed my own fault, how closely these links tie up with other links with groups on both sides of the Atlantic allied, or similar, to the Mafia and other conspiratorial bodies based in Italy and neighbouring states as well as being well entrenched in the USA.
Acceptance of the arguments put forward by Mr Meyssan serves to explain many of the otherwise seemingly inexplicable decisions made by Mr Sarkozy since he took over from Jacques Chirac in 2007, as well as giving very personal private reasons (previously totally unknown to me, but then I am not a fan of the gossip columns) for the obvious dislike, and perhaps even hatred, which Mr Chirac has for his successor.
This article should be read by everyone as the implications are extremely serious for the future of the world. I make this claim not because France is still a great power -- it is not and most of us recognise this -- but it shows a more subtle means of achieving a coup d'�tat than using military or other violent means. Mr Meyssan very carefully tracks the whole story of Mr Sarkozy's rise within the ranks of the successive parties which have claimed to be "Gaulliste" (as following the broad lines of policy laid down by the General, later President, but many of us still think of him as the great leader during the Second World War from 1940 onwards). It is a tale of most cunning duplicity supported by hyper-intelligent backing from within the USA establishment.
If the conclusions reached by Mr Meyssan are correct, and I can see no reason to doubt his analysis of the facts, then Mr Sarkozy is even more dangerous than he has so far appeared to be, and the poor and the oppressed can expect to suffer almost anywhere in the world from his actions on behalf of his masters in the USA. The Arab world, above all others, can expect to be the victim of highly sophisticated concerted trickery as he does everything that he can to crush any moves which the people may try to make towards freedom from tyranny, wherever such moves might in any way limit the greedy ambitions of those who rule the USA.

This the article in question:
Thierry Meyssan 14/07/08
Translated for Axis of Logic from French to English by Robert Thompson
Operation Sarkozy: how the CIA planted one of its agents as President of the French Republic.
Nicolas Sarkozy should be judged on his actions and not on his personality.
But when his actions surprise even his own electors, it is legitimate to examine in detail his biography and to ask about the alliances which brought him to power. Thierry Meyssan decided to write the truth about the origins of the President of the French Republic. All the information contained in this article is verifiable, with the exception of two imputations, pointed out by the author who assumes sole responsibility for them.
The French people, weary of the over-long presidencies of Fran�ois Mitterrand and Jacques Chirac, elected Nicolas Sarkozy and counted on his energy to revitalise their country. They hoped for a break with the years of immobilism and superannuated ideologies. They have had a break with the principles which form the foundation of the French nation. They have been stupefied by this "hyper president", every day grabbing hold of another new file, drawing the right and the left to him, thus disposing of all the land-marks to the point of creating complete confusion.
Like children who have just done something very stupid, the French are too busy finding excuses to admit the extent of the damage and of their na�vety. This makes them refuse all the more to see who Nicolas Sarkozy is, which they ought to have realised long ago.
The man is clever. Like an illusionist, he has diverted their attention by offering them his private life as a spectacle and in posing in celebrity magazines, to the point of making them overlook his political history.
Let the sense of this article be fully understood: it is not to reproach Mr Sarkozy with his links of family, friends and professional contacts, but to reproach him with having hidden his links from the French people who believed that they were electing a free man.
To understand how a man in whom all agree they see an agent of the United States and Israel has been able to become the head of the Gaullist party, then the President of the French Republic, one must go back in time. Far back. We must follow a long digression during which we shall introduce the protagonists who are today taking their revenge.
Family secrets
At the end of the Second World War, the USA secret services counted on the Italo-US godfather Lucky Luciano to control the security of American ports and to prepare the allied landings in Sicily.
Luciano's contacts with the US services passed above all through Frank Wisner Sr. then, when the 'godfather' was freed and went into exile in Italy, through his Corsican 'ambassador', �tienne L�andri.
In 1958, the United States, worried about a possible victory of the FLN in Algeria which would have opened North Africa to Soviet influence, decided to give rise to a military coup d'�tat in France. The operation was organised jointly by the Planning Direction of the CIA - in theory run by Frank Wisner Sr.- and by NATO. But Wisner had already sunk into dementia so that it was his successor, Allan Dulles, who supervised the action. From Algiers, the French Generals formed a Committee of Public Safety which exerted pressure on the civil government in Paris and forced it to give full powers to General De Gaulle without any need to use force.
However, Charles De Gaulle was not the pawn whom the Anglo-Saxons believed they could manipulate. To start with, he tried to find a way out of the colonial contradiction by giving wide autonomy to the overseas territories within a French Union. But it was already too late to save the French Empire since the colonised peoples did not believe in the promises from the metropolis and insisted on their independence. After having successfully led fierce campaigns of repression against the independentists, De Gaulle realised what had to be done. Showing rare political wisdom, he decided to give each colony its independence.
This U-turn was seen as a betrayal by most of those who brought him to power. The CIA and NATO then backed all sorts of plots to get rid of him, including a failed putsch and some forty attempts to assassinate him. However, some of his partisans approved of his political evolution. Around Charles Pasqua, they formed the SAC, a militia to protect him.
Pasqua is both a Corsican crook and a former member of the resistance. He married the daughter of a Canadian bootlegger who made a fortune during prohibition. He ran the Ricard company which, after having dealt in absinthe, a forbidden drink, made itself respectable by selling anisette. However, the company continued to serve as a cover for all sorts of deals in relation with the Italo-New Yorker Genovese family, that of Lucky Luciano. It was therefore not surprising that Pasqua called on �tienne L�andri (Luciano's "ambassador") to recruit strong arm men and build up a Gaullist militia. A third man played an important role in the formation of the SAC, De Gaulle's former body-guard, Achille Peretti -another Corsican.
Thus protected, De Gaulle drew up with panache a policy of national independence. While confirming that he belonged to the Atlantic camp, he questioned the Anglo-Saxon leadership. He objected to the entry of the United Kingdom into the European Common Market (1961 and 1967); he refused the deployment of UNO blue helmets in the Congo (1961); he encouraged Latin American states to break free of US imperialism (speech in Mexico, 1964); he expelled NATO from France and withdrew form the Integrated Command Structure of the Atlantic Alliance (1966); he denounced the Viet-Nam War (speech in Phnon Penh, 1966); he condemned Israeli expansionism during the Six Day War (1967); he supported the independence of Quebec (speech in Montreal 1967) ; etc...
At the same time, De Gaulle consolidated France's power by giving it a military-industrial complex including a nuclear dissuasion force, and by guaranteeing its supply of energy. He usefully separated the troublesome Corsicans from his entourage by giving them overseas missions. Thus �tienne L�andri became the dealer for the Elf group (now Total), while Charles Pasqua became the confidant of the heads of state in French-speaking Africa.
Aware that he could now defy the Anglo-Saxons everywhere at the same time, De Gaulle allied himself with the Rothschild family. He chose as Prime Minister the Director of the Bank, Georges Pompidou. The two men formed an efficient tandem. The political audacity of the first never lost sight of the economic realism of the second.
When De Gaulle resigned, in 1969, Georges Pompidou briefly succeeded him as President before being carried off by cancer. The historical Gaullists did not accept his leadership and were worried by his excessively anglophile attitude. They cried treason when Pompidou, seconded by the Secretary General of the Elyse Eduard Balladur, allowed "perfidious Albion" into the European Common Market.
The making of Nicolas Sarkozy
Having thus described the background, let us come back to our principal personage, Nicolas Sarkozy. Born in 1955, he was the son of a Hungarian nobleman, Pal Sark�sy de Nagy-Bocsa, who fled to France after fleeing the Red Army, and Andr�e Mallah, a Jewish lady from Sallonica. After having had three children (Guillaume, Nicolas and Fran�ois), the couple divorced. Pal Sark�sy de Nagy-Bocsa remarried with an aristocrat, Christine de Ganay, by whom he had two children (Pierre-Olivier and Caroline). Nicolas was not brought up by his parents alone, but passed to and fro in this recomposed family.
His mother became the Secretary of Achille Peretti. After having co-founded the SAC, De Gaulle's body-guard had pursued a brilliant political career. He was elected D�put� and Mayor of Neuilly-sur-Seine, the richest suburb of the capital, then President of the National Assembly.
Unhappily, in 1972, Achille Peretti was subject to serious accusations. In the United States, the magazine Time revealed the existence of a secret Corsican criminal organisation the 'Union corse ' which was said to control a large share of the traffic in drugs between Europe and America, the famous "French connection" which Hollywood brought to the screen. Based on parliamentary hearings and its own investigations, Time quoted the name of a Mafia boss, Jean Venturi, arrested some years earlier in Canada, who was no other than the commercial representative of Charles Pasqua for the drinks company Ricard. The names of several families were mentioned who were said to run the "Union corse", including the Perettis. Achille denied this, but had to resign from the presidency of the National Assembly and even escaped from a "suicide".
In 1977, Pal Sark�zy separated from his second wife, Christine de Ganay, who then linked herself with the number two of the central administration of the Department of State in the United States. She married him and set up home with him in America. The world being small, as is well known, her husband was no other than Frank Wisner Jr., the son of the previous one. The functions of Junior at the CIA are not known, but it was clear that he had an important role there. Nicolas, who remained close to his step-mother, his half-brother and his half-sister, began to turn towards the United States where he "benefitted" from training programmes in the Department of State.
At the same time, Nicolas Sarkozy joined the Gaullist Party. He there met and had contacts with Charles Pasqua more speedily as he was not only a national leader, but also in charge of the local section in the Hauts-de-Seine.
In 1982, Nicolas Sarkozy, having completed his legal training and having been called to the Bar, married Achilles Pretty's niece. His best man was Charles Pasqual. As an Avocet, Ma�tre Sarkozy looked after the interests of the Corsican friends of his mentors. He bought a property in Corsica, at Vice, and thought of making his name more Corsican by replacing the 'y' with an 'I': Sarkozy.
The following year, he was elected Mayor of Neuilly-sure-Seine in the place of his uncle-in-law, Achilles Pretty, stricken by a heart attack.
However, Nicolas did not take long to betray his wife and, from 1984 onward, he had a hidden liaison with Cecilia, the wife of the most famous French television personality at the time, Jacques Martin, whom he had met when celebrating their marriage as Mayor of Neuilly. This double life lasted for five years, before the lovers left their respective spouses to set up a new household.
Nicolas was a witness at the marriage, in 1992, of Jacques Chirac's daughter, Claude, to an editorialist at Le Figaro. he could not stop himself from seducing Claude and to have a brief affair with her, while living officially with Cecilia. The betrayed husband committed suicide by taking drugs. The break between the Chirac's and Nicolas Sarkozy was brutal and permanent.
In 1993, the left lost the parliamentary elections. President Fran�ois Mitterrand refused to resign and entered into a cohabitation with a Prime Minister from the right, Jacques Chirac. His ambition was to become President and thought of then forming a tandem with Eduard Balladur comparable with that of De Gaulle and Pompidou, and he refused to be Prime Minister again and left the place to his "friend for over thirty years", Eduard Balladur. Despite his dubious past, Charles Pasqual became Minister of the Interior. Even if he kept a firm grip Moroccan marijuana, he took advantage of his position to legalise his other activities by taking control of the casinos, gaming and racing in French-speaking Africa. He also established links in Saudi Arabia and in Israel an became an honorary officer in the Mossad. As for Nicolas Sarkozy, he was Minister of the Budget and government spokesman.
In Washington, Frank Wisner Jr. took over from Paul Wolfowitz as being responsible for political planning in the Defence Department. Nobody commented on the links which he had with the French government's spokesman.
This was when the tension within the Gaullist Party came back as thirty years earlier between the historic Gaullists and the financial right, in the person of Balladur. The novelty was that Charles Pasqua and with him the young Nicolas Sarkozy betrayed Jacques Chirac to come closer to the Rothschild tendency. Everything went wrong. The conflict reached its peak in 1995 when �douard Balladur put himself forward against his ex-friend Jacques Chirac for the presidential election, and was beaten. Above all, following the instructions received from London and Washington, the Balladur government opened negotiations for adhesion to the European Union and to NATO of the States in Central and Eastern Europe, freed from Soviet control.
Everything went wrong in the Gaullist Party where the friends of yester-year were ready to kill one another. To finance his electoral campaign, �douard Balladur tried to get hold of the Gaullist Party's black funds, hidden within the double accounting system of the oil company Elf. Hardly had the old �tienne L�andri died, when Judges looked into the company and its bosses were incarcerated. But Balladur, Pasqua and Sarkozy never managed to recuperate the booty.
Crossing the desert
Throughout his first term, Jacques Chirac kept Nicolas Sarkozy at a distance. The man became discreet during this long period of crossing the desert. Discreetly, he continued to make links in financial circles.
In 1996, Nicolas Sarkozy having finally managed to end an endless divorce procedure married C�cilia. As witnesses they had the two billionaires Martin Bouygues and Bernard Arnaud (the richest man in the country).
Last act
Well before the Iraq crisis, Frank Wisner Jr. and his colleagues at the CIA were planning the destruction of the Gaullist line and the rise in power of Nicolas Sarkozy. They acted in three stages: firstly the elimination of the leaders of the Gaullist Party and taking over this body, then the elimination of the principal rival on the right and the investiture by the Gaullist Party for the presidential election, and finally the elimination of any serious challenger from the left in order to be sure of carrying off the presidential election.
For years, the media were kept excited by posthumous revelations by a real property speculator. Before dying of a serious illness, he had registered for reasons never made clear a video confession. For even more obscure reasons, the "cassette" fell into the hands of a highly placed member of the Socialist Party, Dominique Strauss-Khan, who passed it on indirectly to the press.
Even if the confessions of the speculator did not lead to any judicial sanction, they opened a Pandora's box. The principal victim of the successive affairs was to be the Prime Minister Alain Jupp�. To protect Chirac, he alone took on all the criminal offences. Putting Jupp� out of the way left the way clear for Nicolas Sarkozy to take over the running of the Gaullist Party.
Sarkozy then made use of his position to force Jacques Chirac to take him back into the government, despite their mutual hatred. He was definitively to be the Minister of the Interior. What a mistake! In this post, he controlled the Pr�fets and the interior intelligence network which he used to put his appointees into the major branches of the administration.
He also dealt with Corsican matters. The Pr�fet Claude �rignac had been assassinated. Although no-one had claimed it, the murder was immediately interpreted as a challenge made by the independentists to the Republic. After a long hunt, the police managed to arrest a fleeing suspect, Yvan Colonna, the son of a Socialist D�put�. Without regard for the presumption of innocence, Nicolas Sarkozy announced this arrest accusing the suspect of being the assassin. This news was too good two days before a referendum being organised by the Minister of the Interior in Corsica to modify the status of the Island. However that may be, the voters rejected the Sarkozy project which, according to some, favoured Mafia interests.
Although Yvan Colonna was later found guilty, he has always claimed his innocence and no material evidence has been found against him. Strangely, the man refused to talk, preferring to be found guilty than to reveal what he knows. We here reveal that the Pr�fet �rignac was not killed by nationalists, but shot by the hit-man, Igor Pecatte, immediately sent off to Angola where he has been taken on by the Elf group. The motive for the crime was closely linked to the previous functions of �rignac, in charge of the African networks of Charles Pasqua at the Ministry of Cooperation. As for Yvan Colonna, he has been a personal friend of Nicolas Sarkozy for many years and their children are in friendly contact with one another.
A new affair came to light: false listings were circulating which untruthfully accused certain personalities of hiding bank accounts in Luxembourg, with Clearstream. Among the personalities defamed: Nicolas Sarkozy. He took the case to court and let it seem that his right-wing rival for the presidential election, the Prime Minister, Dominique de Villepin, had organised this machination. He did not hide his intention to have him sent to prison. In reality, the false listings were put in circulation by members of the Franco-American Foundation, of which John Negroponte was the President and Frank Wisner Jr. the Director. What the Judges did not know and we reveal here was that the listings were made in London by a joint office of the CIA and the MI6, Hakluyt & Co, of which Frank Wisner Jr. is also Director. Villepin fights back against the accusations, but he is charged, forbidden to leave his home and, de facto, temporarily removed from political life. The way is open for on the right for Nicolas Sarkozy.
It remained necessary to neutralise opposition candidates. The membership dues to the Socialist Party have gone down to a symbolic level to attract new members. Suddenly thousands of young people applied for membership cards. Among them are at least ten thousand new members who are in reality members of the Trotskyite "Lambertist" Party (so called from the name of their founder Pierre Lambert). This small extreme left formation has a history of working for the CIA against the Stalinist communists during the Cold War (it was the equivalent of the SD/USA of Max Shatchman, which formed the neoconservatives in the USA). This was not the first time that the "Lambertists" had infiltrated the Socialist Party.
In particular they planted two famous CIA agents: Lionel Jospin (who became Prime Minister) and Jean-Christophe Cambad�lis, the principal adviser to Dominique Strauss-Kahn.
Primaries were organised in the Socialist Party to appoint its candidate for the presidential election. Two personalities were competing: Laurent Fabius and S�gol�ne Royal. Only the first represented a danger for Sarkozy. Dominique Strauss-Kahn became a candidate with the task of eliminating Fabius at the last moment. This he was able to do thanks to the votes of the infiltrated "Lambertist" militants who voted not for him but for Royal. The operation was possible because Strauss-Kahn, of Moroccan Jewish origin, had been on the US payroll for many years. The French were not aware that he lectured at Stanford, where he had been taken on by the Provost of the University, Condoleezza Rice. As soon as he took office, Nicolas Sarkozy and Condoleezza Rice thanked Strauss-Kahn by having him appointed to head the International Monetary Fund.
First days at the �lys�e Palace
On the evening of the second round of the presidential election, when the opinion polls announced his probable victory, Nicolas Sarkozy made a short speech to the nation from his campaign HQ. Then, contrary to custom, he did not go to celebrate with the militants of his party, but went to Fouquet's. The famous restaurant on the Champs-�lys�es, which had once been the meeting place for the "Union Corse" now belongs to the casino operator Dominique Desseigne. It was placed at the disposition of the elected President to receive his friends and principal donors to his campaign. A hundred or so guests crowded in, the richest men in France were there with the casino bosses.
Then the elected President allowed himself a few days of earned rest. Taken there in a private Falcon-900 to Malta, he rested there on the Paloma, the 65 metre yacht of his friend Vincent Bollor�, a billionaire formed at the Banque Rothschild.
Finally, Nicolas Sarkozy was invested as President of the French Republic. The first decree which he signed was not to proclaim an amnesty, but to allow casinos to be operated by his friends Desseigne et Partouche and increase the number of gambling machines.
He formed his working team and his government. With no surprise, one finds there a very worrying casino owner (Minister of Youth and Sport) and lobbyist for the casinos of his friend Desseigne (who became spokesman for the "Gaullist" Party).
Nicolas Sarkozy relied above all on four men: Claude Gu�ant, Secretary General of the �lys�e Palace. He was the former right arm of Charles Pasqua. Fran�ois P�rol, Assistant Secretary General of the �lys�e. He was a managing partner of the Banque Rothschild. Jean-David L�vitte, diplomatic adviser. Son of the former Director of the Jewish Agency. French Ambassador to UNO, he was removed from his post by Chirac who considered him too close to George Bush. Alain Bauer, the man in the shadow. His name does not appear in any directory. He is in charge of the intelligence services. Grandson of the Grand Rabbi of Lyon, former Grand-Master of the Grand Orient of France (the principal Masonic obedience in France) and former number 2 of the USA National Security Agency in Europe.
Frank Wisner Jr., who had in the meantime been appointed special envoy by President Bush for the independence of Kosovo, insisted that Bernard Kouchner be appointed Minister for Foreign Affairs with a dual priority mission: The independence of Kosovo and the ending of France's Arab policy.
Kouchner, of Baltic Jewish origin, started his career by taking part in creating a humanitarian NGO. Thanks to money from the National Endowment for Democracy, he took part in operations for Zbigniew Brzezinski in Afghanistan, alongside Osama Ben Laden and the Karza� brothers against the Soviets. He could be found in the 90s alongside Alija Izetbegovi� in Bosnia-Herzegovina. From 1999 to 2001, he was the High Representative of UNO in Kosovo.
Under the control of the younger brother of President Hamid Karza�, Afghanistan became the largest producer in the world of opium poppies. The juice is transformed on the spot into heroin and transported by the US Air Force to Camp Bondsteed (Kosovo). There the drug is taken over by the men of Ha�im Tha�i who distribute it principally in Europe and also in the United States. The profits are used to finance the illegal operations of the CIA. Karza� and Tha�i are long-time personal friends of Bernard Kouchner, who obviously knows nothing of their criminal activities despite the international reports which have been made on the subject.
To complete his government, Nicolas Sarkozy appoints Christine Lagarde, Minister of Economy and Finance. She had made all her career in the United States where she ran the prestigious law firm of Baker & McKenzie. Within Dick Cheney's the Center for International & Strategic Studies, she co-chaired with Zbigniew Brzezinski a working group which supervised the privatisations in Poland. She had organised intense lobbying for Lockheed Martin against the French aircraft manufacturer Dassault.
A new escapade during the summer. Nicolas, C�cilia, their joint mistress and their children were offered holidays in the USA at Wolfenboro, not far from President Bush's property. The bill this time was paid by Robert F. Agostinelli, an Italo-New York merchant banker, a Zionist and a leading neo-conservative who gives his views in Commentary, the magazine of the American Jewish Committee.
The success of Nicolas spreads to his half-brother Pierre-Olivier. Under the Americanised name of "Oliver", he was appointed by Frank Carlucci (who was the number 2 of the CIA after having been recruited by Frank Wisner Sr.) Director of a new investment fund of the Carlyle Group (the joint management company of the portfolios of the Bushes and the Ben Ladens). Having become the 5th deal-maker in the world, he manages the principal assets of the sovereign funds of Kuwait and Singapore.
The popularity of the President is in free-fall in the opinion polls. One of his advisers in communication, Jacques S�gu�la, planned to distract the attention of the public with new "celebrity stories". The announcement of the divorce from C�cilia was published by Lib�ration, the newspaper of his friend �douard de Rothschild, to cover up the demonstrators' slogans during a day of general strikes. Going further still, the communicator organised a meeting with the singer and former model, Carla Bruni. Several days later, her affair with the President became official and the media din again covered up the political criticisms. A few weeks later still and it was Nicolas' third marriage. This time the witnesses whom he chose were Mathilde Agostinelli (the wife of Robert) and Nicolas Bazire, former private secretary of �douard Balladur who had become a managing partner at the Banque Rothschild.
When will the French open their eyes to see what they should do?

Op�ration Sarkozy
Op�ration Sarkozy: comment la CIA a plac� un de ses agents � la pr�sidence de la R�publique fran�aise.
Nicolas Sarkozy doit �tre jug� � son action et non pas d'apr�s sa personnalit�.
Mais lorsque son action surprend jusqu'� ses propres �lecteurs, il est l�gitime de se pencher en d�tail sur sa biographie et de s'interroger sur les alliances qui l'ont conduit au pouvoir. Thierry Meyssan a d�cid� d'�crire la v�rit� sur les origines du pr�sident de la R�publique fran�aise. Toutes les informations contenues dans cet article sont v�rifiables, � l'exception de deux imputations, signal�es par l'auteur qui en assume seul la responsabilit�.
Les Fran�ais, lass�s des trop longues pr�sidences de Fran�ois Mitterrand et de Jacques Chirac, ont �lu Nicolas Sarkozy en comptant sur son �nergie pour revitaliser leur pays. Ils esp�raient une rupture avec des ann�es d'immobilisme et des id�ologies surann�es. Ils ont eu une rupture avec les principes qui fondent la nation fran�aise. Ils ont �t� stup�faits par cet � hyper pr�sident �, se saisissant chaque jour d'un nouveau dossier, aspirant � lui la droite et la gauche, bousculant tous les rep�res jusqu'� cr�er une compl�te confusion.
Comme des enfants qui viennent de faire une grosse b�tise, les Fran�ais sont trop occup�s � se trouver des excuses pour admettre l'ampleur des d�g�ts et leur na�vet�. Ils refusent d'autant plus de voir qui est vraiment Nicolas Sarkozy, qu'ils auraient d� s'en rendre compte depuis longtemps.
C'est que l'homme est habile. Comme un illusionniste, il a d�tourn� leur attention en offrant sa vie priv�e en spectacle et en posant dans les magazines people, jusqu'� leur faire oublier son parcours politique.
Que l'on comprenne bien le sens de cet article : il ne s'agit pas de reprocher � M. Sarkozy ses liens familiaux, amicaux et professionnels, mais de lui reprocher d'avoir cach� ses attaches aux Fran�ais qui ont cru, � tort, �lire un homme libre.
Pour comprendre comment un homme en qui tous s'accordent aujourd'hui � voir l'agent des �tats-Unis et d'Isra�l a pu devenir le chef du parti gaulliste, puis le pr�sident de la R�publique fran�aise, il nous faut revenir en arri�re. Tr�s en arri�re. Il nous faut emprunter une longue digression au cours de laquelle nous pr�senterons les protagonistes qui trouvent aujourd'hui leur revanche.
Secrets de famille
� la fin de la Seconde Guerre mondiale, les services secrets �tats-uniens s'appuient sur le parrain italo-US Lucky Luciano pour contr�ler la s�curit� des ports am�ricains et pour pr�parer le d�barquement alli� en Sicile.
Les contacts de Luciano avec les services US passent notamment par Frank Wisner Sr. puis, lorsque le "parrain" est lib�r� et s'exile en Italie, par son "ambassadeur" corse, �tienne L�andri.
En 1958, les �tats-Unis, inquiets d'une possible victoire du FLN en Alg�rie qui ouvrirait l'Afrique du Nord � l'influence sovi�tique, d�cident de susciter un coup d'�tat militaire en France. L'op�ration est organis�e conjointement par la Direction de la planification de la CIA -th�oriquement dirig�e par Frank Wisner Sr.- et par l'OTAN. Mais Wisner a d�j� sombr� dans la d�mence de sorte que c'est son successeur, Allan Dulles, qui supervise le coup. Depuis Alger, des g�n�raux fran�ais cr�ent un Comit� de salut public qui exerce une pression sur le pouvoir civil parisien et le contraint � voter les pleins pouvoirs au g�n�ral De Gaulle sans avoir besoin de recourir la force.
Or, Charles De Gaulle n'est pas le pion que les Anglo-Saxons croient pouvoir manipuler. Dans un premier temps, il tente de sortir de la contradiction coloniale en accordant une large autonomie aux territoires d'outre-mer au sein d'une Union fran�aise. Mais il est d�j� trop tard pour sauver l'Empire fran�ais car les peuples colonis�s ne croient plus aux promesses de la m�tropole et exigent leur ind�pendance. Apr�s avoir conduit victorieusement de f�roces campagnes de r�pression contre les ind�pendantistes, De Gaulle se rend � l'�vidence. Faisant preuve d'une rare sagesse politique, il d�cide d'accorder � chaque colonie son ind�pendance.
Cette volte-face est v�cue comme une trahison par la plupart de ceux qui l'ont port� au pouvoir. La CIA et l'OTAN soutiennent alors toutes sortes de complots pour l'�liminer, dont un putsch manqu� et une quarantaine de tentatives d'assassinat. Toutefois, certains de ses partisans approuvent son �volution politique. Autour de Charles Pasqua, ils cr�ent le SAC, une milice pour le prot�ger.
Pasqua est � la fois un truand corse et un ancien r�sistant. Il a �pous� la fille d'un bootlegger canadien qui fit fortune durant la prohibition. Il dirige la soci�t� Ricard qui, apr�s avoir commercialis� de l'absinthe, un alcool prohib�, se respectabilise en vendant de l'anisette. Cependant, la soci�t� continue � servir de couverture pour toutes sortes de trafics en relation avec la famille italo-new-yorkaise des Genovese, celle de Lucky Luciano. Il n'est donc pas �tonnant que Pasqua fasse appel � �tienne L�andri (� l'ambassadeur � de
Luciano) pour recruter des gros bras et constituer la milice gaulliste. Un troisi�me homme joue un grand r�le dans la formation du SAC, l'ancien garde du corps de De Gaulle, Achille Peretti -un Corse lui aussi.
Ainsi d�fendu, De Gaulle dessine avec panache une politique d'ind�pendance nationale. Tout en affirmant son appartenance au camp atlantique, il remet en cause le leadership anglo-saxon. Il s'oppose � l'entr�e du Royaume-Uni dans le March� commun europ�en (1961 et 1967) ; Il refuse le d�ploiement des casques de l'ONU au Congo (1961) ; il encourage les �tats latino-am�ricains � s'affranchir de l'imp�rialisme US (discours de Mexico, 1964) ; Il expulse l'OTAN de France et se retire du Commandement int�gr� de l'Alliance atlantique (1966) ; Il d�nonce la Guerre du Viet-Nam (discours de Phnon Penh, 1966) ; Il condamne l'expansionnisme isra�lien lors de la Guerre des Six jours (1967) ; Il soutient l'ind�pendance du Qu�bec (discours de Montr�al 1967) ; etc...
Simultan�ment, De Gaulle consolide la puissance de la France en la dotant d'un complexe militaro-industriel incluant la force de dissuasion nucl�aire, et en garantissant son approvisionnement �nerg�tique. Il �loigne utilement les encombrants Corses de son entourage en leur confiant des missions � �tranger. Ainsi �tienne L�andri devient-il le trader du groupe Elf (aujourd'hui Total), tandis que Charles Pasqua devient l'homme de confiance des chefs d'�tats d'Afrique francophone.
Conscient qu'il ne peut d�fier les Anglo-Saxons sur tous les terrains � la fois, De Gaulle s'allie � la famille Rothschild. Il choisit comme Premier ministre le fond� de pouvoir de la Banque, Georges Pompidou. Les deux hommes forment un tandem efficace. L'audace politique du premier ne perd jamais de vue le r�alisme �conomique du second.
Lorsque De Gaulle d�missionne, en 1969, Georges Pompidou lui succ�de bri�vement � la pr�sidence avant d'�tre emport� par un cancer. Les gaullistes historiques n'admettent pas son leadership et s'inqui�tent de son tropisme anglophile. Ils hurlent � la trahison lorsque Pompidou, second� par le secr�taire g�n�ral de l'�lys�e Edouard Balladur, fait entrer � la perfide Albion � dans le March� commun europ�en.
La fabrication de Nicolas Sarkozy
Ce d�cor �tant plant�, revenons-en � notre personnage principal, Nicolas Sarkozy. N� en 1955, il est le fils d'un noble hongrois, Pal Sark�sy de Nagy-Bocsa, r�fugi� en France apr�s avoir fuit l'Arm�e rouge, et d'Andr�e Mallah, une juive originaire de Thesallonique. Apr�s avoir eu trois enfants (Guillaume, Nicolas et Fran�ois), le couple divorce. Pal Sark�sy de Nagy-Bocsa se remarie avec une aristocrate, Christine de Ganay, dont il aura deux enfants (Pierre-Olivier et Caroline). Nicolas ne sera pas �lev� par ses seuls parents, mais ballot� dans cette famille recompos�e.
Sa m�re est devenue la secr�taire d'Achille Peretti. Apr�s avoir co-fond� le SAC, le garde du corps de De Gaulle avait poursuivi une brillante carri�re politique. Il avait �t� �lu d�put� et maire de Neuilly-sur-Seine, la plus riche banlieue r�sidentielle de la capitale, puis pr�sident de l'Assembl�e nationale.
Malheureusement, en 1972, Achille Peretti est gravement mis en cause. Aux �tats-Unis, le magazine Time r�v�le l'existence d'une organisation criminelle secr�te "l'Union corse " qui contr�lerait une grande partie du trafic de stup�fiants entre l'Europe et l'Am�rique, la fameuse � French connexion � qu'Hollywwod devait porter � l'�cran. S'appuyant sur des auditions parlementaires et sur ses propres investigations, Time cite le nom d'un chef mafieux, Jean Venturi, arr�t� quelques ann�es plus t�t au Canada, et qui n'est autre que le d�l�gu� commercial de Charles Pasqua pour la soci�t� d'alcool Ricard. On �voque le nom de plusieurs familles qui dirigeraient � l'Union corse �, dont les Peretti. Achille nie, mais doit renoncer � la pr�sidence de l'Assembl�e nationale et �chappe m�me � un � suicide �.
En 1977, Pal Sark�zy se s�pare de sa seconde �pouse, Christine de Ganay, laquelle se lie alors avec le n�2 de l'administration centrale du d�partement d'�tat des �tats-Unis. Elle l'�pouse et s'installe avec lui en Am�rique. Le monde �tant petit, c'est bien connu, son mari n'est autre que Frank Wisner Jr., fils du pr�c�dent. Les fonctions de Junior � la CIA ne sont pas connues, mais il clair qu'il y joue un r�le important. Nicolas, qui reste proche de sa belle-m�re, de son demi-fr�re et de sa demi-s�ur, commence � se tourner vers les �tats-Unis o� il � b�n�ficie � des programmes de formation du d�partement d'�tat.
� la m�me p�riode, Nicolas Sarkozy adh�re au parti gaulliste. Il y fr�quente d'autant plus rapidement Charles Pasqua que celui-ci n'est pas seulement un leader national, mais aussi le responsable de la section d�partementale des Hauts-de-Seine.
En 1982, Nicolas Sarkozy, ayant termin� ses �tudes de droit et s'�tant inscrit au barreau, �pouse la ni�ce d'Achille Peretti. Son t�moin de mariage est Charles Pasqua. En tant qu'avocat, Me Sarkozy d�fend les int�r�ts des amis corses de ses mentors. Il acquiert une propri�t� sur l'�le de beaut�, � Vico, et imagine de corsiser son nom en rempla�ant le � y � par un � i � : Sarkozi.
L'ann�e suivante, il est �lu maire de Neuilly-sur-Seine en remplacement de son bel-oncle, Achille Peretti, terrass� par une crise cardiaque.
Cependant, Nicolas ne tarde pas � trahir sa femme et, d�s 1984, il poursuit une liaison cach�e avec C�cilia, l'�pouse du plus c�l�bre animateur de television fran�ais de l'�poque, Jacques Martin, dont il a fait la connaissance en c�l�brant leur mariage en qualit� de maire de Neuilly. Cette double vie dure cinq ans, avant que les amants ne quittent leurs conjoints respectifs pour construire un nouveau foyer.
Nicolas est le t�moin de mariage, en 1992, de la fille de Jacques Chirac, Claude, avec un �ditorialiste du Figaro. Il ne peut s'emp�cher de s�duire Claude et de mener une br�ve relation avec elle, tandis qu'il vit officiellement avec C�cilia. Le mari tromp� se suicide en absorbant des drogues. La rupture est brutale et sans retour entre les Chirac et Nicolas Sarkozy.
En 1993, la gauche perd les �lections l�gislatives. Le pr�sident Fran�ois Mitterrand refuse de d�missionner et entre en cohabitation avec un Premier ministre de droite. Jacques Chirac, qui ambitionne la pr�sidence et pense alors former avec Edouard Balladur un tandem comparable � celui de De Gaulle et Pompidou, refuse d'�tre � nouveau Premier ministre et laisse la place � son � ami de trente ans �, Edouard Balladur. Malgr� son pass� sulfureux, Charles Pasqua devient ministre de l'Int�rieur. S'il conserve la haute main sur la majiruana marocaine, il profite de sa situation pour l�galiser ses autres activit�s en prenant le contr�le des casinos, jeux et courses en Afrique francophone. Il tisse aussi des liens en Arabie saoudite et en Isra�l et devient officier d'honneur du Mossad. Nicolas Sarkozy, quant � lui, est ministre du Budget et porte-parole du gouvernement.
� Washington, Frank Wisner Jr. a pris la succession de Paul Wolfowitz comme responsable de la planification politique au d�partement de la D�fense. Personne ne remarque les liens qui l'unissent au porte-parole du gouvernement fran�ais.
C'est alors que reprend au sein du parti gaulliste la tension que l'on avait connu trente ans plus t�t entre les gaullistes historiques et la droite financi�re, incarn�e par Balladur. La nouveaut�, c'est que Charles Pasqua et avec lui le jeune Nicolas Sarkozy trahissent Jacques Chirac pour se rapprocher du courant Rothschild. Tout d�rape. Le conflit atteindra son apog�e en 1995 lorsque �douard Balladur se pr�sentera contre son ex-ami Jacques Chirac � l'�lection pr�sidentielle, et sera battu. Surtout, suivant les instructions de Londres et de Washington, le gouvernement Balladur ouvre les n�gociations d'adh�sion � l'Union europ�enne et � l'OTAN des �tats d'Europe centrale et orientale, affranchis de la tutelle sovi�tique.
Rien ne va plus dans le parti gaulliste o� les amis d'hier sont pr�s de s'entretuer. Pour financer sa campagne �lectorale, Edouard Balladur tente de faire main basse sur la caisse noire du parti gaulliste, cach�e dans la double comptabilit� du p�trolier Elf. � peine le vieux �tienne L�andri mort, les juges perquisitionnent la soci�t� et ses dirigeants sont incarc�r�s. Mais Balladur, Pasqua et Sarkozy ne parviendront jamais � r�cup�rer le magot.
La travers�e du d�sert
Tout au long de son premier mandat, Jacques Chirac tient Nicolas Sarkozy � distance. L'homme se fait discret durant cette longue travers�e du d�sert. Discr�tement, il continue � nouer des relations dans les cercles financiers.
En 1996, Nicolas Sarkozy ayant enfin r�ussi � clore une proc�dure de divorce qui n'en finissait pas se marie avec C�cilia. Ils ont pour t�moins les deux milliardaires Martin Bouygues et Bernard Arnaud (l'homme le plus riche du pays).
Dernier acte
Bien avant la crise irakienne, Frank Wisner Jr. et ses coll�gues de la CIA planifient la destruction du courant gaulliste et la mont�e en puissance de Nicolas Sarkozy. Ils agissent en trois temps : d'abord l'�limination de la direction du parti gaulliste et la prise de contr�le de cet appareil, puis l'�limination du principal rival de droite et l'investiture du parti gaulliste � l'�lection pr�sidentielle, enfin l'�limination de tout challenger s�rieux � gauche de mani�re � �tre certain d'emporter l'�lection pr�sidentielle.
Pendant des ann�es, les m�dia sont tenus en haleine par les r�v�lations posthumes d'un promoteur immobilier. Avant de d�c�der d'une grave maladie, il a enregistr� pour une raison jamais �lucid�e une confession en vid�o. Pour une raison encore plus obscure, la � cassette � �choue dans les mains d'un hi�rarque du Parti socialiste, Dominique Strauss-Khan, qui la fait parvenir indirectement � la presse.
Si les aveux du promoteur ne d�bouchent sur aucune sanction judiciaire, ils ouvrent une bo�te de Pandore. La principale victime des affaires successives sera le Premier ministre Alain Jupp�. Pour prot�ger Chirac, il assume seul toutes les infractions p�nales. La mise � l'�cart de Jupp� laisse la voie libre � Nicolas Sarkozy pour prendre la direction du parti gaulliste.
Sarkozy exploite alors sa position pour contraindre Jacques Chirac � le reprendre au gouvernement, malgr� leur haine r�ciproque. Il sera en d�finitive, ministre de l'Int�rieur. Erreur ! � ce poste, il contr�le les pr�fets et de le renseignement int�rieur qu'il utilise pour noyauter les grandes administrations.
Il s'occupe aussi des affaires corses. Le pr�fet Claude �rignac a �t� assassin�. Bien qu'il n'ait pas �t� revendiqu�, le meurtre a imm�diatement �t� interpr�t� comme un d�fi lanc� par les ind�pendantistes � la R�publique. Apr�s une longue traque, la police parvient � arr�ter un suspect en fuite, Yvan Colonna, fils d'un d�put� socialiste. Faisant fi de la pr�somption d'innocence, Nicolas Sarkozy annonce cette interpellation en accusant le suspect d'�tre l'assassin. C'est que la nouvelle est trop belle � deux jours du r�f�rendum que le ministre de l'Int�rieur organise en Corse pour modifier le statut de l'�le. Quoi qu'il en soit, les �lecteurs rejettent le projet Sarkozy qui, selon certains, favorise les int�r�ts mafieux. Bien qu'Yvan Colonna ait ult�rieurement �t� reconnu coupable, il a toujours clam� son innocence et aucune preuve mat�rielle n'a �t� trouv�e contre lui. �trangement, l'homme s'est mur� dans le silence, pr�f�rant �tre condamn� que de r�v�ler ce qu'il sait. Nous r�v�lons ici que le pr�fet �rignac n'a pas �t� tu� par des nationalistes, mais abattu par un tueur � gage, Igor Pecatte, imm�diatement exfiltr� vers l'Angola o� il a �t� engag� � la s�curit� du groupe Elf. Le mobile du crime �tait pr�cis�ment li� aux fonctions ant�rieures d'�rignac, responsable des r�seaux africains de Charles Pasqua au minist�re de la Coop�ration. Quand � Yvan Colonna, c'est un ami personnel de Nicolas Sarkozy depuis des d�cennies et leurs enfants se sont fr�quent�s.
Une nouvelle affaire �clate : de faux listings circulent qui accusent mensong�rement plusieurs personnalit�s de cacher des comptes bancaires au Luxembourg, chez Clearstream. Parmi les personnalit�s diffam�es : Nicolas Sarkozy. Il porte plainte et sous-entend que son rival de droite � l'�lection pr�sidentielle, le Premier ministre Dominique de Villepin, a organis� cette machination. Il ne cache pas son intention de le faire jeter en prison. En r�alit�, les faux listings ont �t� mis en circulation par des membres de la Foundation franco-am�ricaine, dont John Negroponte �tait pr�sident et dont Frank Wisner Jr. est administrateur. Ce que les juges ignorent et que nous r�v�lons ici, c'est que les listings ont �t� fabriqu�s � Londres par une officine commune de la CIA et du MI6, Hakluyt & Co, dont Frank Wisner Jr. est �galement administrateur. Villepin se d�fend de ce dont on l'accuse, mais il est mis en examen, assign� � r�sidence et, de facto, �cart� provisoirement de la vie politique. La voie est libre � droite pour Nicolas Sarkozy.
Reste � neutraliser les candidatures d'opposition. Les cotisations d'adh�sion au parti socialistes sont r�duites � un niveau symbolique pour attirer de nouveaux militants. Soudainement des milliers de jeunes prennent leur carte. Parmi eux, au moins dix mille nouveaux adh�rents sont en r�alit� des militants du Parti trotskiste � lambertiste � (du nom de son fondateur Pierre Lambert). Cette petite formation d'extr�me gauche s'est historiquement mise au service de la CIA contre les communistes staliniens durant la Guerre froide (Elle est l'�quivalent du SD/USA de Max Shatchman, qui a form� les n�oconservateurs aux USA). Ce n'est pas la premi�re fois que les � lambertistes � infiltrent le Parti socialiste. Ils y ont notamment plac� deux c�l�bres agents de la CIA : Lionel Jospin (qui est devenu Premier ministre) et Jean-Christophe Cambad�lis, le principal conseiller de Dominique Strauss-Kahn.
Des primaires sont organis�es au sein du Parti socialiste pour d�signer son candidat � l'�lection pr�sidentielle. Deux personnalit�s sont en concurrence : Laurent Fabius et S�gol�ne Royal. Seul le premier repr�sente un danger pour Sarkozy. Dominique Strauss-Kahn entre dans la course avec pour mission d'�liminer Fabius au dernier moment. Ce qu'il sera en mesure de faire gr�ce aux votes des militants � lambertistes � infiltr�s, qui portent leur suffrages non pas sur son nom, mais sur celui de Royal. L'op�ration est possible parce que Strauss-Kahn, d'origine juive marocaine, est depuis longtemps sur le payroll des �tats-Unis. Les Fran�ais ignorent qu'il donne des cours � Stanford, o� il a �t� embauch� par le pr�vot de l'universit�, Condoleezza Rice. D�s sa prise de fonction, Nicolas Sarkozy et Condoleezza Rice remercieront Strauss-Kahn en le faisant �lire � la direction du Fonds mon�taire international.
Premiers jours � l'�lys�e
Le soir du second tour de l'�lection pr�sidentielle, lorsque les instituts de sondages annoncent sa victoire probable, Nicolas Sarkozy prononce un bref discours � la nation depuis son QG de campagne. Puis, contrairement � tous les usages, il ne va pas faire la f�te avec les militants de son parti, mais il se rend au Fouquet's. La c�l�bre brasserie des Champs-�lys�es, qui �tait jadis le rendez-vous de � l'Union corse � est aujourd'hui la propri�t� du casinotier Dominique Desseigne. Il a �t� mis � disposition du pr�sident �lu pour y recevoir ses amis et les principaux donateurs de sa campagne. Une centaine d'invit�s s'y bousculent, les hommes les plus riches de France y c�toient les patrons de casinos.
Puis le pr�sident �lu s'offre quelques jours de repos bien m�rit�s. Conduit en Falcon-900 priv� � Malte, il s'y repose sur le Paloma, le yacht de 65 m�tres de son ami Vincent Bollor�, un milliardaire form� � la Banque Rothschild.
Enfin, Nicolas Sarkozy est investi pr�sident de la R�publique fran�aise. Le premier d�cret qu'il signe n'est pas pour proclamer une amnistie, mais pour autoriser les casinos de ses amis Desseigne et Partouche � multiplier les machines � sous.
Il forme son �quipe de travail et son gouvernement. Sans surprise, on y retrouve un bien trouble propri�taire de casinos (le ministre de la Jeunesse et des Sports) et le lobbyiste des casinos de l'ami Desseigne (qui devient porte-parole du parti �gaulliste�).
Nicolas Sarkozy s'appuie avant tout sur quatre hommes : Claude Gu�ant, secr�taire g�n�ral du palais de l'�lys�e. C'est l'ancien bras droit de Charles Pasqua. Fran�ois P�rol, secr�taire g�n�ral adjoint de l'�lys�e. C'est un associ�-g�rant de la Banque Rothschild. Jean-David L�vitte, conseiller diplomatique. Fils de l'ancien directeur de l'Agence juive. Ambassadeur de France � l'ONU, il fut relev� de ses fonctions par Chirac qui le jugeait trop proche de George Bush. Alain Bauer, l'homme de l'ombre. Son nom n'appara�t pas dans les annuaires. Il est charg� des services de renseignement. Petit-fils du Grand rabbin de Lyon, ancien Grand-Ma�tre du Grand Orient de France (la principale ob�dience ma�onnique fran�aise) et ancien n�2 de la National Security Agency �tats-unienne en Europe.
Frank Wisner Jr., qui a �t� nomm� entre temps envoy� sp�cial du pr�sident Bush pour l'ind�pendance du Kosovo, insiste pour que Bernard Kouchner soit nomm� ministre des Affaires �trang�res avec une double mission prioritaire: l'ind�pendance du Kosovo et la liquidation de la politique arabe de la France.
Kouchner, un juif d'origine balte, a d�but� sa carri�re en participant � la cr�ation d'une ONG humanitaire. Gr�ce aux financements de la National Endowment for Democracy, il a particip� aux op�rations de Zbigniew Brzezinski en Afghanistan, aux c�t�s d'Oussama Ben Laden et des fr�res Karza� contre les Sovi�tiques. On le retrouve dans les ann�es 90 aupr�s d'Alija Izetbegovi� en Bosnie-Herz�govine. De 1999 � 2001, il a �t� Haut repr�sentant de l'ONU au Kosovo.
Sous le contr�le du fr�re cadet du pr�sident Hamid Karza�, l'Afghanistan est devenu le premier producteur mondial de pavot. Le suc est transform� sur place en h�ro�ne et transport� par l'US Air Force � Camp Bondsteed (Kosovo). L�, la drogue est prise en charge par les hommes d'Ha�im Tha�i qui l'�coulent principalement en Europe et accessoirement aux �tats-Unis. Les b�n�fices sont utilis�s pour financer les op�rations ill�gales de la CIA. Karza� et Tha�i sont des amis personnels de longue date de Bernard Kouchner, qui certainement ignore leurs activit�s criminelles malgr� les rapports internationaux qui y ont �t� consacr�s.
Pour compl�ter son gouvernement, Nicolas Sarkozy nomme Christine Lagarde, ministre de l'�conomie et des Finances. Elle a fait toute sa carri�re aux �tats-Unis o� elle a dirig� le prestigieux cabinet de juristes Baker & McKenzie. Au sein du Center for International & Strategic Studies de Dick Cheney, elle a co-pr�sid� avec Zbigniew Brzezinski un groupe de travail qui a supervis� les privatisations en Pologne. Elle a organis� un intense lobying pour le compte de Lockheed Martin contre les l'avionneur fran�ais Dassault.
Nouvelle escapade durant l'�t�. Nicolas, C�cilia, leur maitresse commune et leurs enfants se font offrir des vacances �tats-uniennes � Wolfenboroo, non loin de la propri�t� du pr�sident Bush. La facture, cette fois, est pay�e par Robert F. Agostinelli, un banquier d'affaires italo-new-yorkais, sioniste et n�o-conservateur pur sucre qui s'exprime dans Commentary, la revue de l'American Jewish Committee.
La r�ussite de Nicolas rejaillit sur son demi-fr�re Pierre-Olivier. Sous le nom am�ricanis� �d'Oliver�, il est nomm� par Frank Carlucci (qui fut le n�2 de la CIA apr�s avoir �t� recrut� par Frank Wisner Sr.) directeur d'un nouveau fonds de placement du Carlyle Group (la soci�t� commune de gestion de portefeuille des Bush et des Ben Laden). Devenu le 5e noueur de deals dans le monde, il g�re les principaux avoirs des fonds souverains du Koweit et de Singapour.
La c�te de popularit� du pr�sident est en chute libre dans les sondages. L'un de ses conseillers en communication, Jacques S�gu�la, pr�conise de d�tourner l'attention du public avec de nouvelles � people stories �. L'annonce du divorce avec C�cilia est publi�e par Lib�ration, le journal de son ami Edouard de Rothschild, pour couvrir les slogans des manifestants un jour de gr�ve g�n�rale. Plus fort encore, le communiquant organise une rencontre avec l'artiste et ex-mannequin, Carla Bruni. Quelques jours plus tard, sa liaison avec le pr�sident est officialis�e et le battage m�diatique couvre � nouveau les critiques politiques. Quelques semaines encore et c'est le troisi�me mariage de Nicolas. Cette fois, il choisit comme t�moins Mathilde Agostinelli (l'�pouse de Robert) et Nicolas Bazire, ancien directeur de cabinet d'Edouard Balladur devenu associ�-g�rant chez Rothschild.
Quand les Fran�ois auront-ils des yeux pour voir � qui ils ont � faire ?
