Nkhondo ndi khansa ndi zina mwazomwe zimayambitsa kufa kwa anthu padziko lonse lapansi. Sangathe kupatukana mosamalitsa ndikuyerekeza poyerekeza nkhondo ndizomwe zimayambitsa khansa, monga zilili kukonzekera nkhondo. (Ndipo kachigawo kakang'ono ka bajeti yaku US yokonzekera kunkhondo kangapereke ndalama zothandizira kafukufuku wa khansa mopitilira ndalama zonse zomwe zimaperekedwa ndi ndalama zaboma ndi zaboma komanso mitundu yonse ya 5-K yochiritsa ndi zina zomwe tadziwa.) Nkhondo ndipo khansa, mwa chikhalidwe chawo, sichingathe kuyankhidwa ndi mayankho amodzimodziwo.
Kupewa khansa, kuphatikiza kusintha kwamachitidwe amakampani ndi mphamvu, ndizoletsa, pomwe chithandizo cha khansa ndikufunafuna chithandizo ndiye njira yathu yofala kwambiri yodziyimira pawokha komanso kulimbikitsa. Mukawona othamanga kapena odziwika atayikidwa pinki wowala, kapena chochitika chapagulu chodzaza malaya apinki kapena maliboni, kapena - m'mbali mwa msewu - chifuwa chachikulu cha pinki chofufumitsa chilichonse, simukayikira kuti "WTF ndiye?" kuposa "Tiyenera kuthandizira kuchiza khansa ya m'mawere."
Kupewa nkhondo, kuphatikizapo kusinthiratu chuma chathu komanso chuma chathu kutali ndi nkhondo, kuphunzitsanso kutali ndi mabodza achiwawa, kuthandizira kuthetsa mikangano yopanda chiwawa, ndikukweza malamulo apadziko lonse lapansi komanso kuweruza omwe amapanga nkhondo, nawonso ndi oletsedwa . Koma chithandizo chankhondo komanso kufunafuna njira yothetsera nkhondo kuyambika, zikuwoneka ngati zopanda ntchito kwenikweni kuposa kufunafuna chithandizo cha khansa. Nkhondo ndiyopanda kukayika komanso yopangidwa ndi anthu. Ambiri mwa omwe amaphedwa nawo amafa nthawi yomweyo. Kuyimitsa nkhondo yomwe idayambika kumakhala kovuta kwambiri kuposa kupewa kuyiyambitsa, chifukwa palibe gulu limodzi lomwe lingayang'anire njira yankhondo, ndipo mabodza othandizira-asitikali amatsimikizira anthu kuti kuthetsa nkhondo ndi koyipa kuposa kupitiriza. Nkhondo ikangotha, kuthetsa mkwiyo ndi udani ndi zizolowezi zachiwawa, komanso kuwonongeka kwa chilengedwe (ndi miliri ya khansa), ndikuwononga ufulu ndi demokalase, zonsezi zimawonjezera ntchito yayikulu - ngati yosatheka poyerekeza ndi ya kupewa nkhondo asanayambe.
Chifukwa chake, tikayerekezera kufunikira kwa anthu ambiri kuthetsa khansa ndi imodzi yoti kuthetsa nkhondo, chomalizirachi chikuwoneka kuti chikufuna kuyimitsa pulogalamu yathu yayikulu kwambiri, pomwe yoyambayo imatilola kupitiliza kuyendetsa ma SUV athu kupita ku Wal-Mart bola titamangirira nthiti ya pinki kumbuyo kuwonetsa kuti madotolo ndi asayansi apitiliza kuyenda kwakukulu kwa kupita patsogolo. Ndipo zowonadi ayenera. Tiyenera kuyesetsa kwambiri kuchiritsa khansa, osatchula za Alzheimer's yomwe imapha kwambiri ngati khansa koma ikutsutsidwa ndi ndalama zochepa (osati chiwopsezo kwa omwe amakonda ziwalo zonse za thupi: bere).
Koma kuthetsa nkhondo kungakhale kofunikira kwambiri. Zida za nyukiliya zitha kugwiritsidwa ntchito mwadala kapena mwangozi ndikutiwononga tonsefe. Zomwe zidaponyedwa kunkhondo ndizofunikira kwambiri kuti athetse mavuto azachilengedwe (osanenapo za kuchiza khansa). Bwanji ngati kampeni yothetsa nkhondo itaphunzira zochepa chabe pantchito yothetsa khansa ya m'mawere?
Kutsatira kutsogolera kwa Odzipereka a Mtendere ku Afghanistan, Campaign Nonviolence, World Beyond War, ndipo magulu ena amtendere akulimbikitsa aliyense kuti agwiritse ntchito mitambo ya buluu ndi zibangili monga zizindikiro zamtendere ndi chithandizo chothetsera nkhondo zonse. Bwanji ngati zizindikilo za buluu zakuthambo zikufalikira monga pinki? Kodi ziwoneka bwanji?
