Ndi Robert C. Koehler
Kupha kwathu ndi koyera ndi zadziko; awo ndi osokoneza komanso achipembedzo.
"Poyesa kupanga chidziwitso m'madera ena a Iraq ndi Syria," CNN akutiuza ife, "ISIS omenyana apha anthu wamba ngati akutenga mizinda m'mayiko awiriwa.
"Ku Syria, gululi linaika mitu yowonongeka ya mitu yawo."
Mimba -kumenyana monga izi, nkhani yomwe imanenedwa - ngati njira yosavuta yowonetsera malingaliro aumunthu - imandichititsa kuopsya kwake, chifukwa imalongosola mwakachetechete zazikulu, zoopsya kwambiri zomwe zimayang'ana m'mapiko. Kubwereka mawu kuchokera kwa Benjamin Netanyahu, izi ndi zachiwawa za telefoni. Ndicho chimene makina a nkhondo a ku America akuyenera kuti amvetsetse nkhondo yotsatira ku Iraq.
Lipoti la CNN likupitiriza kuti: "Nthawi ina yomwe inagwidwa ndi kamera," munthu amaoneka ngati akukankhidwa, atazunguliridwa ndi zigawenga zomwe zimadziwika okha pa vidiyo monga ziwalo za ISIS. Amamukakamiza mwamunthu kuti amutembenukire ku Islam, kenako am'dule mutu. "
Izi ndi zabwino zakale. Mosiyana, pamene timapha Iraq, ndi mofulumira komanso mwaukhondo, ngati osasunthika ngati chess. Nkhani yomweyo ya CNN imatiuza kuti: "Akuluakulu a ku Iraq adanena akuluakulu a US Loweruka anapha asilikali a 16 ISIS, ndipo katswiri wa asilikali a ku Iraq ku Sinjar anapha asilikali ena a 45 ISIS, omwe adawauza za boma la Iraq.
Ndichoncho. Palibe zambiri. Akufa omwe timakhala nawo alibe makhalidwe alionse aumunthu, ndipo kuwapha kwathu ndi zotsatira zake-kopanda kuyeretsa firiji. Zili zofunikira, chifukwa awa ndi a jihadi, ndipo, chabwino. . .
"Chofunika kwambiri ku US tsopano chiyenera kubwerera ndikugonjetsa ISIS kotero kuti sichikhoza kukhazikitsa chigawenga cha zigawenga," Wall StreetJournal zasinthidwa masiku angapo apitawo. "Mkhalidwe woterewu udzakhala mtsogoleri wa ma jihadi omwe adzaphunzitse ndiyeno adzabalalitsa kupha padziko lonse lapansi. Iwo adzayesa kukantha Achimereka m'njira zomwe zimagwira dziko, kuphatikizapo dziko la United States. Njira yongokhala ndi ISIS imachepetsa vutoli. "
Ndipo apa pali South Carolina Sen. Lindsey Graham, akunena chinthu chomwecho ndi zovuta zambiri pa Fox News, monga momwe Paulo Waldman ananenera mu Washington Post: "Udindo wa Obama ndikuteteza dziko lino. Ngati sachita zoipa motsutsana ndi ISIS, ISIL, zilizonse zomwe mukufuna kuwatcha anyamatawa, akubwera kuno. Izi sizikutanthauza za Baghdad. Izi siziri za Syria basi. Ndi za dziko lathu. . . .
"Kodi mukufunadi kuti America iwonongeke? . . . Purezidenti, ngati simusintha njira yanu, anthu awa akubwera kuno. "
Chigwirizano chimene chimapititsa kukonda dziko sikunayambe chitalakwitsa. Ndinadabwa ndi mfundo izi zaka khumi zapitazo; chifukwa chakuti akubweranso bwino kwambiri, akukwera kuchokera pamaphulusa awo kuti apemphe nkhondo yatsopano kuti iwononge zoopsa zomwe wakale amandichititsa, andipangitsa ine kukhala watsopano wosadandaula. Mantha amatsika kosatha ndipo nthawi zonse amaitanidwa. Nkhondo ikuwononga maphunziro ake omwe.
As Ivan Eland posachedwapa analemba ku Huffington Post kuti: "Pa nkhondo, magulu achiwawa kwambiri amalanda zidazo ndi kuzigwiritsa ntchito kwa wina aliyense. Ngati kukayikira kulipo podabwitsa izi, pamene ISIS idzagwedezeka ku Iraq, idasokoneza gulu lankhondo la Iraq lomwe linapangidwa bwino kwambiri ndipo linatumizira kuti liziyenda. Panopa mphepo yamakono yotsutsana ndi mayiko omwe tsopano akutchedwa IS, ndege ya ku America ikulimbana ndi zida zake. "
Iye anawonjezera kuti: "Pokhala ndi mbiri yaposachedwapa, wina angaganize kuti ndale za ku America zingakhale zochititsa manyazi kuti adzigwirizanenso ku Iraq. Koma tsopano akuganiza kuti akufunika kulimbana ndi chilombo chimene adalenga. Koma ngati kuli koopsa kwambiri kusiyana ndi kholo lake, al Qaida ku Iraq, ndizilombo zowonjezereka zowonjezereka zomwe zikutsutsana ndi US bombing? "
Tiyeni tilole izi zilowe mkati. Ife tawononga dziko lonse la Iraq mu "nkhondo yowopsya" yomwe yatiiwalika tsopano, kuthamangitsa mamiliyoni a anthu, kupha zikwi mazana (ndi ena akuyesa oposa mamiliyoni), kuwononga zowonongeka kwa dziko ndikuwononga malo ake nkhondo zambiri zopanda malire. Pomwe tikuchita zonsezi, tinayambitsa chidani, chomwe chinapititsa patsogolo pang'onopang'ono ndikukhala dziko la Islamic, lomwe lili mowopsa komanso mobwerezabwereza kulanda dzikoli. Tsopano, posadziwa kwathu za zikhalidwe zandale za Iraq, sitikuona njira ina koma kuti tibwerere kumbuyo kwa nkhondo yolimbana ndi mabomba, ngati si nkhondo yochuluka kwambiri.
Pulezidenti Obama ndi atsogoleri ovomerezeka a Democrats akuwona izi ngati zochepa, "ubwino" wothandiza, pamene a Republican ndi a Hawkish Dems akulimbiratu kuti awonongeke kwambiri, kuti ateteze "dziko lakwawo," mwinamwake iwo angasankhe kusiya chifukwa cha msonkho.
Ndipo kufotokozera kwakukulu kumakhalabe kozama ngati ndemanga ya masewera. Zomwe asilikali analowerera, kaya ndi zowonjezera, zitsulo, kapena zotsalira, nthawi zonse zimakhala yankho, chifukwa nkhondo nthawizonse imawoneka ngati yankho. Zomwe zikusoweka kuposa zonse ndizofunafuna moyo wa mtundu uliwonse.
Pakalipano, Iraq ndi anthu ake akupitirizabe kuvutika, kaya mwachindunji mmanja mwathu kapena m'manja mwa zinyama zomwe tapanga. Monga ogulitsa zankhondo anganene, ntchito yatha.
