Eight hostages scattered across the Middle East and Africa four deaths in three escape attempts, the failure of services is obvious.
Those who are interested know that the intelligence is, at least publicly, that of civilized discourse, cohesion front and unspoken. Or does he now not only the former director of the DGSE (1989-1993), former prefect and the master emeritus of the Court of Auditors, is engaged in Libération this morning in an attack with flamethrowers cons the current organization of intelligence services, and especially against their action in the areas of the world currently in turmoil.
Under the title The cruel intelligence fiascos French, the former "DG" pulls "atrocious record" of the reorganization of 2007 (creation of the DCRI and the National Intelligence Council). And discuss "conduct of France in blind Tunisia and Egypt, eight hostages scattered somewhere between the Middle East and Africa, four hostages died in three attempts recovery in Somalia, Mauritania and Niger" . Appointed by the DGSE Mitterrand when he was prime minister Michel Rocard, maintained in office by Edith Cresson and Pierre Beregovoy, he was thanked by Edouard Balladur.
failed across the board
To illustrate the role of the DGSE in the genesis of diplomatic positions in France, it evokes a note issued by the department when he was in his head, for Algeria, while the generals took power by ousting the Front Islamic hello: "Our country must consider lucidly the arrival of the FIS operates the country [...] and show its willingness to work closely with Algeria whatever the democratic choice of his people." The opinion of the DGSE had no effect, but "at least" the secret services had they then said Silberzahn, "a clear vision allowed an accurate prediction of future events.
Then, referring to a "blindness of the executive," he criticizes the lack of analysis of the situation in Tunisia, "dormant" in the Sahel which would have fallen even the use of SOC (Special Operations Command) to try to rescue hostages "both Somalia and Mauritania and Niger." There the warden is not perfectly informed Silberzahn: Mauritania, July 24, 2010, service action of the DGSE was the only French force into action (after a whole month of training with the Mauritanian army) to try to recover the hostage Michel Germaneau. This failure is a "major" in the French intelligence community.
As for the botched operation to recover the hostages in Niger, she was taken by the COS with the active participation of the management operations of the DGSE. In its conclusion, the pen of Claude Silberzahn is murdered: "Never in recent decades, a negative balance could also be trained to respect the policy area of special services and intelligence."
