Hoʻoweliweli nā F-35 iā Vermont

Ke hāʻawi nei ʻo Pelekikena Joe Biden i ka hoʻolilo pūʻali koa Trump-level, ke noi nei ʻo ia e hoʻomau i ka hāʻawi kālā ʻana i ka ʻoihana o nā mea kaua make, ʻo ia ka mea mua a me ka mea nui i waena o lākou ka mokulele mokulele F-35. He ʻoihana ia, ʻaʻole ia he "lawelawe," e maopopo ai ke kūʻai ʻia nei ka F-35 i nā aupuni o nā pae like ʻole o ka hana hoʻomāinoino a puni ka hona, a mai ka New York Times ua hoʻoliʻiliʻi ʻia i pale aku nei iā as "Pipiʻi hoʻi e hoʻokō ʻole." A laila aia ka mea a ka F-35 e hana nei i nā lālā o ka lehulehu o ka US he manaʻo paha e pili ana i ka "pale ʻana."

Kāhea ʻia kahi kiʻi ʻoniʻoni pōkole no ka manuahi ma ʻApelila 15th "Mokuna Jet: Nā leo mai ke ala lele." Eia kahi nānā mua:

No ka makahiki i hala, e pae ana nā F-35 a haʻalele iā Burlington International Airport ma Vermont. Aia i loko o kēia kiʻi ʻoniʻoni he 12 mau memo memo i waiho ʻia e ka poʻe e noho ana ma lalo o ke ala lele. Mamuli o ka kānana ma ka lā 15, hiki i ka poʻe ke nīnau i nā nīnau a nā mea hana kiʻiʻoniʻoni.

Kūpilikiʻi ka leo o nā kāne a me nā wahine o Vermont. Hōʻike lākou i ka lulu o ko lākou kino, nā keiki e ʻeha ana, ka halulu ʻole a me nā haʻalulu i ke ao a me ka pō. Ke "kuli" ka leo a uhi ʻole kou mau pepeiao i mea ʻole. Wahi a kekahi wahine ua piʻi a weliweli loa kona kahe koko. Hōʻike kekahi i ka nani o kēlā me kēia lā me ka ʻole o nā lele F-35. Wahi a kekahi mau kāne e haʻalele ana lāua, e neʻe aku ana, a "Hilahila i ka Pūʻali Koa Aupuni!"

Huhū a huhū paha ka hapa nui. Lana ka manaʻo o kekahi kanaka ʻo Senator Patrick Leahy a me nā mea kālaiʻāina ʻē aʻe nāna i lawe nā F-35 i Burlington e "popopo i loko o gehena." Hoʻowahāwahā kekahi mea kāhea iā ʻoe no ka wahaheʻe e pili ana i nā pae walaʻau.

Wahi a kekahi leka, ʻo Burlington wale nō "kahi hewa e hoʻokumu ai i nā F-35," me he mea lā he wahi kūpono. Akā haʻi kekahi i ko lākou huhū, ʻaʻole wale me ka walaʻau, akā me ka hāʻawi kūloko i ka hoʻonui ʻana i ke ʻano o ke kaua, a me ka "1000-gallon-per-flight kontribusi to the climate crisis."

ʻO kahi liʻiliʻi o nā leo i ke kiʻi ʻino pro-F-35. Lana ka manaʻo kaumaha hoʻokahi e lele haʻahaʻa lākou a pinepine. Hoʻolauleʻa kekahi i ka "haʻaheo aloha ʻāina" ʻoiai i ka hanu hou e aʻo ana i nā kamaʻāina o US e makemake ana e kaohi i ko lākou ola i ka lapuwale lapuwale o ke kūʻē ʻana i ka pūʻali koa a i ʻole ka National Guard - ʻo ia paha ke kūlana o nā hihia e haʻaheo ai kahi aloha ʻāina

ʻO nā pilikia me ka F-35 pau ʻole, a aia nō i helu ʻia ma aneʻi me kahi palapala noi pono i nā kānaka āpau e kau inoa i ka poʻe e manaʻo ana e puhi i nā hale me ka walaʻau e lawa pono e hōʻino ai i ka lolo o nā keiki.
