Alan Grayson, représentant démocrate de Floride, membre du comité des Affaires étrangères, dénonce l’opacité du gouvernement américain quand aux « preuves » qu’il fournit (ou plutôt, ne fournit pas) aux élus du Congrès : On Syria Vote, Trust, but Verify

Compare this lack of transparency with the administration’s treatment of the Benghazi attack. Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton, to her credit, made every single relevant classified e-mail, cable and intelligence report available to every member of Congress. (I know this, because I read them all.) Secretary Clinton had nothing to hide.
Her successor, John Kerry, has said repeatedly that this administration isn’t trying to manipulate the intelligence reports the way that the Bush administration did to rationalize its invasion of Iraq.
But by refusing to disclose the underlying data even to members of Congress, the administration is making it impossible for anyone to judge, independently, whether that statement is correct. Perhaps the edict of an earlier administration applies: “Trust, but verify.”
On comprend notamment que le second document très secret dont l’élu n’a pas le droit de parler au public, ne contient en fait pas plus d’informations pertinentes que le document pas secret.
