Ndi David Swanson, April 10, 2018

Magulu omwe ali ovuta kwambiri pa moyo wa anthu, chilungamo chachuma, kuteteza chilengedwe, kukhazikitsidwa kwa anthu abwino, kapena zonsezi, zimathetsa vuto la nkhondo. Magulu omwe amadzinenera kuti ndi omveka koma amafuula mofuula kuchokera ku vuto lililonse lankhondo sizowopsa.

Pofika kumapeto kwenikweni kwa gululi pali zoyesayesa zambiri zolimbikitsa zipani zandale m'dongosolo lazandale lachinyengo. Marichi Akazi, Nyengo ya Marichi (yomwe tidagwira ntchito molimbika kuti tichepetse kutchulidwako pang'ono kwamtendere), komanso March for Our Lives sizowopsa. Ngakhale kuti March for Our Lives ndi nkhani imodzi “yoguba,” nkhani yake ndi chiwawa cha mfuti, ndipo atsogoleri ake amalimbikitsa ziwawa zankhondo ndi apolisi kwinaku akupewa kuzindikira kuti gulu lankhondo la US linaphunzitsa anzawo a m’kalasi kupha.

Ndizolimbikitsa kwambiri kuti magulu ena "osadziwika" akhala akutsutsa kusankhidwa kwaposachedwa kwa Trump pazifukwa zotsutsana ndi zigawenga. Koma munthu ayenera kuzengereza kuyang'ana kwa magulu a zigawenga kuti awonenso makhalidwe abwino.

Chakumapeto kwa chiwonetserochi ndi Black Lives Matter, yomwe imaphatikizapo kusanthula kwakukulu kwa zankhondo ndi maubwenzi pakati pa "nkhani" zomwe zimaganiziridwa kuti ndi zosiyana. nsanja, ndi Kampeni ya Anthu Osauka, yomwe Lachiwiri idasindikiza lipoti ndi bungwe la Institute for Policy Studies lomwe limalimbana ndi zoyipa zomwe zimaphatikizika za nkhondo, kusankhana mitundu, kukonda kwambiri chuma, komanso kuwononga chilengedwe.

Lipotilo linati: “Ndi ochepa amene amakumbukira kuti nkhondo ya ku Vietnam inawononga zinthu zambiri zothandiza pa Nkhondo Yolimbana ndi Umphawi, zomwe zinathandiza kwambiri koma zikanatha kuchita zambiri. 'Mabomba oponyedwa ku Vietnam amaphulika kunyumba,' adatero Dr. King. Ochepa amakumbukirabe mawu aulosi a Kampeni ya Anthu Osauka komanso kuti Dr. King anamwalira akukonzekera kusintha kopanda chiwawa kuti akankhire America ku chikhalidwe cha anthu ozikidwa pa chikondi. . . . [T] Kampeni yatsopano ya Anthu Osauka idzasonkhanitsa anthu azikhalidwe zosiyanasiyana kupita ku National Mall ku Washington komanso kumayiko akuluakulu padziko lonse lapansi kuyambira pa Meyi 13 mpaka Juni 23, 2018, patangodutsa masiku makumi anayi kuti dziko lathu liwone osauka m’makwalala athu, amayang’anizana ndi kuwonongeka kwa chilengedwe chathu, ndi kusinkhasinkha za matenda a mtundu umene chaka ndi chaka umawononga ndalama zambiri pankhondo zosatha kuposa pa zosowa za anthu.”

Kampeni yatsopano ya Anthu Osauka imadziwa komwe kuli ndalama.

"Ndalama zomwe zaperekedwa pachaka zankhondo, zokwana $668 biliyoni, zimachepera $190 biliyoni zomwe zimaperekedwa kumaphunziro, ntchito, nyumba, ndi ntchito zina zofunika ndi zomangamanga. Pa dola iliyonse imene boma limagwiritsa ntchito posankha zochita, masenti 53 amapita kunkhondo, ndi masenti 15 okha pa mapulogalamu othana ndi umphaŵi.”

Ndipo sizimagwera bodza lakuti ndalamazo ziyenera kukhalapo.

"Nkhondo za Washington zazaka 50 zapitazi sizinachitepo kanthu ndi kuteteza anthu aku America, pomwe cholinga chopindulitsa chawonjezeka kwambiri. Ndi makontrakitala azinsinsi omwe akugwira ntchito zambiri zankhondo, pakhala pafupifupi ka 10 kuchuluka kwa makontrakitala ankhondo pa msirikali aliyense pankhondo zaku Afghanistan ndi Iraq monga momwe zinalili pankhondo yaku Vietnam. . . “

Kampeni yatsopano ya Anthu Osauka imazindikira 96% ya anthu enanso ngati anthu.

"Kulowererapo kwa asitikali aku US kwapha anthu wamba m'maiko osauka. Malinga ndi bungwe la United Nations, pafupifupi wamba mmodzi mwa atatu aliwonse adamwalira ku Afghanistan m'miyezi isanu ndi inayi yoyambirira ya 2017 kuposa nthawi yomweyi mu 2009 pomwe kuwerengera kudayamba. . . . Nkhondo yosatha yawononganso asitikali aku US komanso ogwira ntchito. Mu 2012, anthu odzipha anapha anthu ambiri kuposa asilikali.”

Kampeni iyi imazindikira kulumikizana.

"Zankhondo zakunja zayendera limodzi ndi kulimbikitsa malire a US komanso anthu osauka m'dziko lonselo. Apolisi akumaloko tsopano ali ndi zida zomenyera nkhondo monga galimoto yankhondo yonyamula zida yomwe idatumizidwa ku Ferguson, Missouri, poyankha ziwonetsero zomwe apolisi adapha wachinyamata wachikuda, Michael Brown, mu 2014. mphamvu. Akhoza kuphedwa ndi apolisi kuwirikiza kasanu ndi kamodzi kuposa anthu ena aku America. "

Kampeni iyi imazindikiranso zinthu zomwe bungwe lililonse lodzipereka ku chimodzi mwa zipani ziwiri zazikuluzikulu zandale silingathe kuzindikira, monga ngati china chake chikusowa:

"Mosiyana ndi Purezidenti Dwight Eisenhower, yemwe anachenjeza za 'magulu ankhondo ndi mafakitale,' palibe mtsogoleri wandale wamakono amene akuyika kuopsa kwa nkhondo ndi chuma cha nkhondo pakati pa mikangano ya anthu."

Ndikupangira kuwerenga lonse lipoti, gawo la zankhondo lomwe limakambirana:

chuma chankhondo ndi kukula kwankhondo:

"Kukula kwa asitikali ankhondo aku US padziko lonse lapansi kumabweretsa mavuto akulu, kuyambira kumenyedwa kwa azimayi amderali mpaka kuwononga chilengedwe mpaka kusokoneza chuma chawo."

amene akupindula ndi nkhondo ndi kubisa usilikali:

” Nkhondo za ku Washington zaka 50 zapitazi sizikukhudzana kwenikweni ndi kuteteza anthu aku America. M'malo mwake, zolinga zawo ndikuphatikiza ulamuliro wa mabungwe aku US pamafuta, gasi, zinthu zina ndi mapaipi; kupatsa Pentagon malo ankhondo ndi gawo lokonzekera kumenya nkhondo zambiri; kukhalabe ndi ulamuliro wankhondo pa otsutsa; ndi kupitiliza kupereka zifukwa zamakampani ankhondo aku Washington mabiliyoni ambiri. . . . Lipoti la 2005 la Institute for Policy Studies linasonyeza kuti pakati pa 2001 ndi 2004, ma CEO a makampani akuluakulu adakweza 7 peresenti pa malipiro awo omwe anali atapeza kale. Akuluakulu oyang'anira makontrakitala achitetezo, komabe, adakwera 200 peresenti. . . .”

umphawi draft:

“Monga momwe kafukufuku wina wa 2008 wokhudza mtundu, kalasi, kusamukira kwawo, ndi kulowa usilikali adanenera, 'chinthu chofunikira kwambiri chothandizira usilikali pakati pa anthu ambiri ndi ndalama zomwe mabanja amapeza. Anthu omwe amapeza ndalama zochepa m'mabanja ndi omwe amatha kulowa usilikali kusiyana ndi omwe amapeza ndalama zambiri m'banja. . . .”

akazi ku usilikali:

"[A] Kutenga nawo gawo kwa amayi ku usilikali kunakula, momwemonso chiwerengero cha amayi omwe amazunzidwa ndi asilikali anzawo chinakula. Malinga ndi data yaposachedwa ya Veterans Administration (VA), m'modzi mwa azimayi asanu aliwonse omwe adamenya nawo nkhondo adauza wothandizira zaumoyo wawo ku VA kuti adakumana ndi vuto lakugonana, lomwe limatanthauzidwa ngati kugwiriridwa kapena mobwerezabwereza, kuwopseza kuzunzidwa. . . . Zaka zinayi zokha 2001 isanafike, pamene a Taliban otsutsana ndi amayi adalamulira Afghanistan, mlangizi wa mafuta ku UNOCAL Zalmay Khalilzad adalandira a Taliban ku United States kuti akambirane zomwe zingatheke. Chodetsa nkhaŵa chochepa kapena sichinatchulidwe chilichonse chokhudza ufulu wa amayi kapena moyo wa amayi. Mu December 2001 Purezidenti George W. Bush anasankha Khalilzad woimira wapadera, ndipo pambuyo pake kazembe wa US ku Afghanistan. Pambuyo pa ziwopsezo za Seputembara 11, kudachitika mwadzidzidzi kukhudzidwa komwe a Taliban amachitira azimayi aku Afghanistan. . . . Koma boma lokhazikitsidwa ndi US lomwe lidalowa m'malo mwa a Taliban lidaphatikizanso omenyera nkhondo ambiri ndi ena omwe kutsutsana kwambiri ndi ufulu wa amayi sikunasiyanitsidwe ndi a Taliban. "

militarization of society:

"Ndalama zambiri zaboma zimabwera kudzera muzinthu ngati pulogalamu ya '1033,' yomwe imalola Pentagon kusamutsa zida zankhondo ndi zida kumadipatimenti apolisi am'deralo - kuyambira owombera mabomba kupita kwa onyamula zida - zonse popanda mtengo uliwonse. . . . Ngakhale kuti mfuti zakhala zikugwira ntchito yaikulu m’mbiri ya dziko la United States ndi chikhalidwe cha anthu, kuyambira pa nthawi ya kuphedwa kwa Amwenye omwe anabadwira m’kugonjetsa kontinenti ya ku Ulaya ndi ukapolo wa anthu akuda a ku Africa, mfuti tsopano zafala kwambiri kuposa kale lonse.”

mtengo wamunthu ndi wamakhalidwe:

“Mitsinje ya anthu otaya mtima ofunafuna chitetezo kudutsa nyanja kapena padziko lonse lapansi yasanduka chigumula. Ku United States kuposa kwina kulikonse, anthu amenewo akumana ndi ziwawa zatsankho, kudana ndi anthu ochokera kumayiko ena, komanso ziletso zitatu za Asilamu. . . . Pakadali pano, anthu osauka padziko lonse lapansi akupitilizabe kulipira ndalama zambiri pankhondo zaku US. Panthawi ya nkhondo za US kunja kwa mizinda, mayiko ndi anthu onse akuvutika, kwinaku akukwiyitsa kwambiri ndikulimbikitsa kulembedwa ntchito kwa mibadwo yatsopano ya omenyana ndi US. Ngakhale m’zaka zoyambirira za Nkhondo Yachigawenga Yapadziko Lonse, akuluakulu a asilikali a ku United States anazindikira kuti kuukira ndi kulanda anthu kunayambitsa uchigawenga kuposa mmene unathera.”

Tangoganizirani za gulu lazinthu zambiri losagwirizana ndi chiwawa lomwe lili ndi kumvetsetsa kwa mutuwu womwe nthawi zambiri sudzatchulidwa.

Izi ndi zomwe tidzafunika kubwera pa Novembara 11 kuti tilowe m'malo mwa Trump Weapons Day Tsiku la Armistice.
