A ʻaʻohe mea i haʻi aku i nā triliona kālā a mākou e hoʻonele ai a i ʻole nā pono kīvila a mākou e nalo ai ma ka home a i ʻole nā hōʻino koʻikoʻi e kau ʻia i ka nohona kūlohelohe. ʻOiai manu mai hele hou i Afghanistan.
OK. ʻO kēlā me kēia ʻano par-for-the-course, bullshit marketing-war. ʻO ka poʻe e nānā ana i ka ʻike i kēlā mau mea āpau. ʻO ka poʻe makemake ʻole e ʻike i kekahi o ia mau mea ka manaʻolana hope loa loa o nā pūʻali koa i nā wahi āpau. A mai hoʻopunipuni ʻoe i ka wā i hala. Ke hoʻāʻo nei ka White House e hoʻomau i ka noho ʻana o Afghanistan no UMI MAKAHI MAKAHIKI ("a ʻoi aku"), a ke hoʻomaka nei nā ʻatikala i kēia pule e pili ana i ka hoʻihoʻi ʻana i nā pūʻali koa US i ʻIraka. Akā aia kekahi mea hou aʻe.
Ua heluhelu wale wau i kahi puke hou maikaʻi na Anand Gopal i kāhea ʻiaʻAʻohe kanaka maikaʻi i waena o nā mea ola:ʻAmelika, ka Taliban, a me ke Kaua Ma o Afghanistan Eyes. Ua hala ʻo Gopal i mau makahiki ma Afghanistan, ua aʻo i nā ʻōlelo kūloko, ua nīnauele i nā poʻe i ka hohonu, ua noiʻi i kā lākou mau moʻolelo, a ua hoʻopuka i kahi puke lawehala maoli i ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi, a ʻoi aku ka pololei, ma mua o nā mea a Truman Capote i manaʻo ai. Ua like kā kā Gopal puke puke me he puke hou e hoʻopili ana i nā moʻolelo o kekahi mau huapalapala - nā moʻolelo i kau ʻia i kekahi manawa. ʻO ia kahi ʻano puke e hopohopo nei e hōʻino wau inā ʻōlelo nui wau e pili ana i ka hopena o nā huaʻōlelo, no laila e akahele wau ʻaʻole.
ʻO nā huapalapala me nā ʻAmelika, nā Afghans i hui pū me ka hana US, nā Afghans e hakakā ana i ka hana a ka US, a me nā kāne a me nā wahine e hoʻāʻo nei e ola - e like me ka hoʻololi ʻana i kā lākou kūpaʻa i kēlā me kēia ʻāpana e liʻiliʻi ai i kēlā manawa e hoʻopaʻa a pepehi paha iā lākou. ʻO ka mea a mākou e ʻike ai mai kēia ʻaʻole ka ʻenemi wale nō kekahi. ʻIke mākou e hoʻololi maʻalahi nā kānaka like mai kahi mahele a i kahi ʻē aʻe. Ua kūkākūkā nui ʻia ka hewa o ke kulekele de-Baathification a ka US hana i ʻIraka. ʻO ka hoʻolei ʻana i nā mea pepehi kanaka mākaukau a me nā mea kaua mai ka hana ʻaʻole i lilo i kahi neʻe keu loa. Akā e noʻonoʻo e pili ana i ka mea i hoʻonāukiuki iā ia: ʻo ka manaʻo ʻo ka mea i kākoʻo i ke aupuni ʻino ʻo ia ka hewa i hiki ʻole (ʻoiai ʻo Ronald Reagan lāua ʻo Donald Rumsfeld i kākoʻo pū i ke aupuni ʻino - OK, laʻana maikaʻi ʻole, akā ʻike ʻoe i ka manaʻo aʻu). Ma Afghanistan ka manaʻo cartoonish like, ka hāʻule like ʻana no kā propaganda ponoʻī, ua hele.
ʻO ka poʻe ma Afghanistan nona ka moʻolelo pilikino e hōʻike ʻia ma ʻaneʻi i ʻaoʻao a kūʻē paha iā Pakistan, me a i ʻole kūʻē paha i ka USSR, me a i ʻole kūʻē paha iā Taliban, me a i ʻole kūʻē iā US a me NATO, i ka huli ʻana o ke kai o ka waiwai. Ua hoʻāʻo kekahi e hana i kahi ola ma kahi hana maluhia ke wehe ʻia kēlā manawa kūpono, e like me ke kakahiaka nui i ka noho ʻana o ka US. Ua luku wikiwiki loa ʻia ka Taliban ma 2001 ma o ka hui pū ʻana o ka mana luku nui a me ka haʻalele. Hoʻomaka ka US e ʻimi holoholona no ka mea i lilo i lālā no ka Taliban. Akā ua komo kēia i ka hapa nui o ka poʻe e alakaʻi nei i ke kākoʻo o ke aupuni US - a he nui nā alakaʻi hui like i pepehi ʻia a hopu ʻia ʻia aole ʻo Taliban hoʻi, ma o ka lapuwale a me ka palaho. Ua lohe pinepine mākou i ke kau ʻana o nā makana he $ 5000 i mua o ka poʻe ʻilihuna i hana i nā hoʻopiʻi hoʻopiʻi wahaheʻe i pae i ko lākou poʻe hoa paio ma Bagram a i ʻole Guantanamo. Akā hōʻike ʻo kā Gopal puke i ka lawe ʻia ʻana o kēia mau kiʻina nui i hōʻino ʻia i nā kaiāulu, a huli i nā kaiāulu e kūʻē iā ʻAmelika Hui Pū ʻIa i ʻae e kākoʻo iā ia. Hoʻohui i kēia i ka hoʻomāinoino hoʻomāinoino a hōʻino ʻia o nā ʻohana holoʻokoʻa, e like me nā wahine a me nā keiki i hopu ʻia a hoʻomāinoino ʻia e nā pūʻali koa US, a me ka hoʻāla hou ʻana o ka Taliban ma lalo o ka noho ʻana o ka US. ʻO ka wahaheʻe i haʻi ʻia iā mākou e wehewehe aku, ua lilo ʻo US i mea hoʻonāukiuki e ʻIraka. ʻO nā palapala Gopal, eia nō naʻe, ua ola hou ka Taliban ma kahi a nā pūʻali koa US e hoʻokau nei i kahi lula o ka hana kolohe a ʻaʻole ma kahi e kūkākūkā ai nā poʻe ʻē aʻe i nā loina e hoʻohana nei, ʻike ʻoe, nā hua'ōlelo.
ʻIke mākou ma aneʻi i kahi moʻolelo o kahi hana haole ʻike ʻole a hoʻomaopopo ʻole i ka hana haole e hoʻomāinoino ana a me ka pepehi kanaka ʻana i ka hapa nui o kāna mau mea aloha ikaika loa, e hoʻouna ana i kekahi o lākou i Gitmo - a me ka hoʻouna ʻana aku i nā keiki kāne Gitmo nona ka hewa wale nō i hōʻeha kolohe iā US. nā mea kōkua ʻO ka weliweli o kēia ʻano moʻolelo e luʻu hohonu i loko o ka ʻūlū Kafkan weliweli o ka lula e ka ikaika naʻaupō naʻaupō ka manaʻo o ka mea heluhelu: E hana maikaʻi i ke kaua aʻe. Inā ʻaʻole hiki i nā ʻoihana ke hana, e puhi wale kākou a haʻalele. Kaʻu e pane aku ai: ʻAe, pehea nā mea e hana nei i Libya? ʻO ka haʻawina na mākou e aʻo ai, ʻaʻole mālama maikaʻi ʻia ke kaua, akā ʻaʻole maikaʻi nā kānaka a i ʻole nā kānaka maikaʻi ʻole. A eia ka ʻāpana paʻakikī: Aia pū me nā Lūkini.
Makemakeʻoe e hana i kekahi mea maikaʻi no Afghanistan? E hele maanei. ʻO maanei.
