Chilichonse pa pulaneti lathu laling'ono chimakhudza china chilichonse. Kudalirana kumeneku nkwaukali kwambiri kuposa bromide ya Nyengo Yatsopano. Ochepa omwe akucheperachepera angakanebe kuti anthu ali ndi udindo chifukwa cha kusakhazikika kwanyengo, koma sangayerekeze kuti matenda, kapena kuipitsa koyendetsedwa ndi mphepo, sikungaletsedwe ndi malire a mayiko. Ngakhale a Donald Trump sakanatha kumanga mpanda womwe udayimitsa kachilombo ka Zika, tinthu tating'onoting'ono tomwe timachokera kumitengo ya malasha yaku China, kapena kutuluka kwamadzi a radioactive kuchokera ku Fukushima.
Ndikofunikira kwambiri kuti timvetsetse kudalirana kodabwitsa komwe kumabwera chifukwa chakuti mayiko asanu ndi anayi ali ndi zida za nyukiliya. Zilibenso kanthu kuti mtundu wina uli ndi zida zingati za nyukiliya, chifukwa kuphulitsidwa kwa zida zoterozo ndi dziko lililonse, ngakhale gawo laling’ono la zida zankhondo zapadziko lonse, kungachititse “nyengo yozizira ya nyukiliya” imene ingakhale ndi zotsatirapo pa dziko lonse lapansi.
Tafika kukhoma, osati khoma la mawonekedwe a Trump, koma malire amphamvu owononga omwe amasintha chilichonse. Zotsatira zake zimabwereranso m'mikangano yaing'ono, yomwe si ya nyukiliya. Malemu Admiral Eugene Carroll, yemwe kale anali woyang'anira zida zonse za nyukiliya za ku America, ananena molunjika kuti: "Kuletsa nkhondo ya nyukiliya, tiyenera kuletsa nkhondo zonse." Nkhondo iliyonse, kuphatikizapo mikangano yachigawo monga mkangano wamalire ku Kashmir pakati pa India ndi Pakistan, ukhoza kuwonjezereka kwambiri mpaka kufika pamlingo wa nyukiliya.
Mwachiwonekere lingaliro ili, lomveka bwino kwa munthu wamba ngati ine, silinakhazikike pamlingo wapamwamba kwambiri waukatswiri wazinthu zakunja m'maiko athu ndi mayiko ena. Ngati zikanatero, dziko la United States silikanadzipereka pakukweza zida zake zanyukiliya zokwana madola thililiyoni. Komanso Russia sakanawononga ndalama zambiri pazida zotere, kapena India, kapena Pakistan.
Kufananiza ndi kutengeka kwa mfuti ku America sikungapeweke. Andale ambiri ndi okopa anthu kuti athandizire pa kampeni yawo, kunyoza nzeru, kulimbikitsa kukulitsa kwa ufulu ndi zilolezo zonyamula mfuti m'makalasi ndi m'matchalitchi ngakhalenso mabala, akumatsutsa kuti ngati aliyense ali ndi mfuti tonse tikhala otetezeka. Kodi dziko likanakhala lotetezeka ngati mayiko ambiri, kapena Mulungu akanaletsa mayiko onse kukhala ndi zida za nyukiliya—kapena kodi tikanakhala otetezeka ngati palibe amene angakhale ndi zida zanyukiliya?
Zikafika pa momwe timaganizira za zida izi, lingaliro la "mdani" palokha liyenera kuganiziridwanso mozama. Zida zomwezo zakhala mdani wa aliyense, mdani woopsa kwambiri kuposa mdani woipa kwambiri yemwe angamuganizire. Chifukwa timagawana zenizeni kuti chitetezo changa chimadalira chanu ndi chanu pa ine, lingaliro la mdani yemwe atha kuthetsedwa ndi zida zanyukiliya zapamwamba zatha. Pakadali pano zida zathu zikwizikwi zimakhalabe zokonzeka komanso zokonzeka kuti wina alakwitse kwambiri ndikuwononga chilichonse chomwe timachikonda.
Adani osasunthika kwambiri ndi omwe akuyenera kulumikizana ndikulankhulana mwachangu kwambiri: India ndi Pakistan, Russia ndi US, South ndi North Korea. Kupambana kovutirapo kwa mgwirizano womwe ukuchedwetsa ndikuchepetsa kuthekera kwa Iran kupanga zida za nyukiliya sikutamandidwa, koma tifunika kuwonjezera mphamvu zake pomanga maubwenzi pakati pa nzika zaku US ndi Iran. M'malo mwake, kusakhulupirirana kumasungidwa ndi malingaliro achikale omwe amalimbikitsidwa ndi akuluakulu osankhidwa ndi akatswiri.
Monga momwe mapangano oletsa kufalikira ndi kupewa nkhondo ali ofunikira, maukonde a ubale weniweni wa anthu ndiwofunikira kwambiri. Monga momwe womenyera mtendere David Hartsough adalemba za ulendo wake waposachedwa ku Russia: "M'malo motumiza asitikali kumalire a Russia, tiyeni titumize nthumwi zambiri za nzika ngati zathu ku Russia kuti tidziwe anthu aku Russia ndikudziwa kuti ndife. banja limodzi la munthu. Titha kukhazikitsa mtendere ndi kumvetsetsana pakati pa anthu athu. ” Apanso izi zitha kumveka ngati bromide kwa ndale ndi media kukhazikitsidwa, koma m'malo mwake ndi okha njira zenizeni zomwe mitundu yathu ingadutse khoma la chiwonongeko chotheratu chomwe chilibe njira yotulukira pamlingo wa kupambana kwankhondo.
Reagan ndi Gorbachev anayandikira kwambiri kuvomereza kuthetsa ma nukes a mayiko awo awiri pamsonkhano wawo ku Reykjavik mu 1986. Zikadachitika. Zikadayenera kuchitika. Tikufuna atsogoleri omwe ali ndi masomphenya komanso olimba mtima kukankhira zonse kuti zithe. Monga nzika yopanda ukatswiri wapadera, sindikumvetsetsa momwe munthu wanzeru ngati Purezidenti Obama angapitire ku Hiroshima ndikubisa mawu ake okhudza kuthetsedwa kwa zida za nyukiliya ndi mawu oti "Sitingazindikire cholinga ichi m'moyo wanga." Ndikukhulupirira kuti Bambo Obama apanga purezidenti wakale ngati Jimmy Carter. Kumasulidwa ku zovuta za ndale za ofesi yake, mwinamwake adzagwirizana ndi Bambo Carter muzochita zolimba zamtendere zomwe zimagwiritsa ntchito maubwenzi ake ndi atsogoleri a dziko kufunafuna kusintha kwenikweni.
Mawu ake adzakhala ofunika kwambiri, koma liwu limodzi lokha. Mabungwe omwe siaboma ngati Rotary International, okhala ndi mamiliyoni a mamembala m'makalabu masauzande ambiri m'maiko mazana ambiri, ndi njira yathu yotetezeka, yofulumira kwambiri yopezera chitetezo chenicheni. Koma kuti mabungwe ngati Rotary atengeretu kupewa nkhondo monga momwe adatengera kuthetsedwa kwa poliyo padziko lonse lapansi, ma Rotarians, monga nzika zonse, ayenera kudzuka mpaka momwe zonse zasinthira, ndikufikira makoma otalikirana. omwe amati ndi adani. Kuthekera kowopsa kwa nyengo yachisanu ya nyukiliya ndi yabwino mwanjira yosamvetseka, chifukwa imayimira malire odzigonjetsera ankhondo pomwe dziko lonse lapansi labwera. Tonsefe timakumana ndi tsoka limene likubwera, komanso chiyembekezo.
