Rumsfeld Laments Global Reach of News in Wartime
http://ap.tbo.com/ap/breaking/MGBRWZT969E.html
PHILADELPHIA (AP) - One of the military's new wartime challenges
is dealing with global media that can instantly spread around the
world information that may be false or damaging to U.S. interests,
Defense Secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld said Wednesday.
The United States needs to respond to anti-American messages with
greater agility and speed if it is to win the ideological struggle
with Islamic extremists, Rumsfeld said in a speech to members of
the World Affairs Council of Philadelphia.
"We'll need to develop considerably more sophisticated ways of using
these new means of communication that are now available to reach the
many and diverse audiences," he said.
Rumsfeld didn't delve deeply into specifics in his brief talk with
members of the civic group. But in the recent past, news outlets
have broadcast messages from terrorist groups, or reported stories
that have fueled rage against Americans in the Muslim world.
"This is really the first war in history that is being conducted in
an era of multiple global satellite television networks,
24-hour news outlets with live coverage of terrorist attacks,
disasters and combat operations," Rumsfeld said.
He said U.S. officials must also deal with "a global Internet with
universal access and no inhibitions, e-mail, cell phones, digital cameras
wielded by anyone and everyone" and "a seemingly casual disregard for
the protection of classified information, resulting in a near
continuous hemorrhage of classified documents, to the detriment
of the country."
The defense secretary was among those who complained earlier this month
following deadly riots in Afghanistan after Newsweek published a story
that U.S. interrogators desecrated a copy of the Quran at Guantanamo Bay.
The magazine later retracted the story amid questions about its
truthfulness.

I regimi autoritari hanno bisogno del nemico che li giustifichi.
Le esigenze della guerra fredda e ora della guerra al terrorismo hanno
prodotto i media addomesticati che conosciamo.
Ma questo non pare basti, gia' soffocando Al Jazzera si e' chiarito che solo
i media conformi sono ammessi, rimane il problema della rete.
Come i Cinesi e i Sauditi filtrano la rete cosi' anche gli USA dovranno
farlo, in cio' diventano periferia del mondo civile.
Altra strategia colpire in tutto il mondo i siti e le persone non gradite,
direi arduo.
Ma Rummy la mette sul piano militare, potrebbe darsi che USA e NATO
dichiarino guerra al WEB.
Saluti Cad Ali'
