Patadutsa sabata kuchokera pomwe Purezidenti Harry Truman adachotsa ngwazi yankhondo yankhondo ya WWII Gen. kuzimiririka. ”
MacArthur anali atadzudzula Truman pagulu pomukana iye chilolezo chotsutsa "Red China" itatumiza asitikali ku Korea kuti akamenyane ndi asitikali aku US kumeneko. Umu munali mu April 1951, zaka 70 zapitazo. Truman adalongosola kuti: "Ndinamuthamangitsa chifukwa sankalemekeza ulamuliro wa Purezidenti ... sindinamuthamangitse chifukwa anali mwana wosalankhula, ngakhale anali."
Popeza, kuyerekezera kumatha kukhala kosavomerezeka, koma malongosoledwe achifundo kwambiri pamakhalidwe a Chairman wa Joint Chiefs 4-star Gen.Gen.Mark Milley - ndikufotokozera komwe nthawi zambiri kumaperekedwa ndi omwe amamudziwa - ndikuti akuyenera kulandira ulemu Truman adapatsa MacArthur nyenyezi zisanu. Ndimakonda kukhala ocheperako, powona Milley ngati wonyalanyaza komanso wopusitsa, ndipo - chofunikira kwambiri - kuyesera kuti adzilowetse mozemba muulamuliro wololeza kugwiritsa ntchito zida za nyukiliya.
“Mavuto” Enieni
Milley sanakane mavumbulutso opatsa chidwi m'buku la "Ngozi" lolembedwa ndi Bob Woodward ndi Robert Costa. Kupatula pa zodabwitsa (koma zovomerezeka kwambiri) zomwe Milley adawona kuti ndi bwino kuchenjeza mnzake waku China kuti amupatsa mwayi ngati zida zankhondo zaku China zikubwera, pali vumbulutso lodabwitsa lomwe Milley adalangiza akuluakulu a Pentagon kuti amayenera kutenga nawo mbali pazokambirana zilizonse zokhudzana ndi kuyambitsa zida za nyukiliya.
Cholakwika ndi chiyani, akufunsa Atlantic. Mnyamata wabwino Milley anali ndi nkhawa kwambiri za munthu woyipa Trump kotero adatipulumutsa tonse:
Milley akuti adayitanitsanso gulu la akuluakulu aku US ndikuwapangitsa kuti atsimikizire, m'modzi m'modzi, kuti amvetsetsa kuti njira yotulutsira zida za nyukiliya iyenera kuphatikizidwanso. … Milley adakhalabe m'mizere, pang'ono."
Ayi
Ndidapempha ndemanga kwa a Col. Douglas Macgregor kuti nditsimikizire kukayikira kwanga kuti The Atlantic ikukongoletsa kakombo. Zomwe Milley adachita poyesera kuti adzilowetse munjira zovomerezeka zololeza kugwiritsa ntchito zida za nyukiliya zinali zosamveka bwino, mwina zosaloledwa. Wapampando wa JCS alibe gawo logwira ntchito munthawi imeneyi. Nazi zomwe Macgregor anandiuza lero (POTUS, ndiye Purezidenti):
Chingwe cha nyukiliya chimachokera ku POTUS kupita ku SECDEF kupita ku CDR STRATCOM. Zachidziwikire, pali ena omwe POTUS angawafunse, koma malinga ndi malamulo omwe ali pamwambapa ndiolondola. POTUS iyeneranso kupereka mphamvu zogwiritsa ntchito chida chilichonse panyanja kapena mlengalenga. Apanso, Milley ndiye mlangizi wamkulu wankhondo ku POTUS. Amatha kufunsidwa, koma mulibe chilamulo chomwe chimafunikira kuti atenge nawo mbali. Mwina, ndichifukwa chake adalimbikira kuti atenge nawo mbali.
Mosiyana ndi a Truman omwe sanachite bwino mofananamo, Purezidenti Biden Lachitatu adawonetsa "chidaliro chonse" mwa a Milley. Apanso, kufananitsa kumatha kukhala kosavomerezeka, koma a Trump adamutcha "ntchito ya mtedza".
Kuyambiranso koyamba
Pomwe ndimayesera kuzindikira zonsezi dzulo, ndidalemba nkhani yovuta iyi:
Lankhulani zosokoneza! Mwamavuto (ndipo - osafunikira kunena - wowunikira aliyense ayenera kuyesetsa kupewa kuwunika kwamitundu), ndikosavuta kupuma ndi kukhala othokoza chifukwa cha zomwe Milley sakukana.
Dziyikeni mu nsapato za Xi, Putin. Mulungu wabwino! Ngati gulu lapamwamba lankhondo litha kuchitapo kanthu popewa kukhazikitsa lamulo lovomerezeka (ngakhale lowopsa) ndipo izi zimaloledwa kukhala ngati ulemu, choyenera kutamandidwa, izi zikutanthauza kuti gulu lankhondo lapamwamba lingayambitsenso / kuyambitsa nkhondo yankhondo mosasamala kanthu za wamkulu-wamkulu. A Air Force anayesera kuchita izi mkati mwa Cuban Missile Crisis, koma magazi ozizira ku Moscow kunapewa zovuta kwambiri. Pali ma Curtis LeMays ambiri mozungulira.
Ndikadakhala Putin, kapena Xi, ndikadakhala wokakamizika kukonzekera zoyipa kwambiri - zoyipitsitsa. Ali kale ndi umboni wokwanira wosonyeza kuti asitikali aku US - komanso anthu ngati a Donald Rumsfeld ndi Robert Gates - alamulira nkhondo zapambuyo pa 9/11; kuti kuletsa mfuti ku Syria, kukambirana mwachidwi kwa miyezi 11 ndi Kerry ndi Lavrov, komanso ovomerezeka ndi a Obama ndi a Putin, kudawonongedwa sabata yotsatira ndi US AF.
Tsopano Putin ndi XI ali ndi umboni wotsimikizika kuti kusamvera kwamtunduwu kumafikira pamikangano yomwe ingakhale ya NUCLEAR - ndipo imafikira pamwamba kwambiri pa JCS. Ndipo Milley amamuwona ngati munthu wabwino pazomwe adachita. Zachidziwikire, a Putin ndi XI, alibe chitsimikizo kuti zipolowe zomwe zachitika ku US zitha kubweretsa msonkhano wowopsa kwambiri "wogulitsa-mikono-wogulitsa-zida" Congress chaka chamawa NDI Trump yachiwiri.
Kodi gulu lankhondo lomwe silinasankhidwe lingachite chiyani kuti athandize izi? Kodi a Trump angayesetse kuwonetsetsa kuti kuletsa kwa Milley sikungachitike? Kodi akanatha kuchita izi? Zokayikitsa. Chitsanzo chakhazikitsidwa. Inde, lumbirolo ndilokhudza Constitution; koma Constitution ndiyachidziwikire kuti Purezidenti ndiye wamkulu-mutu; mpando wa JCS si. Pitirizani kulingalira za maphunziro omwe XI ndi Putin angapeze kuchokera pazonsezi.
Kodi Milley akanachita chiyani? Nayi lingaliro. Dziperekeni mofatsa ndikupereka chitsanzo kwa asitikali ONSE omwe ali pansi pake ndikuchenjeza dzikolo mwatsatanetsatane. Ndani akudziwa, mwina chitsanzo chake chikadapangitsa kuti ena atule pansi udindo.
Tsopano ndikukumbukira kuti bizinesi ya Nancy Pelosi ikupempha Milley kuti akane malamulo a Trump. Zomwe, m'malingaliro mwanga, zimayambitsa vuto lamalamulo.
Pomaliza, Milley mwiniwake wasonyezedwa - patsamba loyamba la NYTimes pa 9/11/2021 - kukhala wabodza wabodza. Nawu mutu wankhani: "Umboni Umasokoneza Nkhani Yathu [Milley] Yoti bomba la ISIS ku Kabul Drone Strike" - yemwe adapha ana asanu ndi awiri, wothandizira, et al. Ndipo fayilo ya NYT Kuphatikiza kwaphatikizira, kawiri, kanema wokwanira kwa iwo omwe amakonda kuyang'ana-ndikuwona m'malo mowerenga. (Izi zikuwoneka zatsopano, komanso zofunikira, kwa ine. Pali zosowa mu zida za NYT zokhudza Milley, zomwe zikuyenera kutsatiridwa zisanalumikizidwe.)
Mwanjira ina, panthawiyi MICIMATT tsopano ili ndi "M" woyamba wokhala ndi chitetezo chamthupi chodetsa nkhawa, titero kunena kwake. "M" mwina amayenera kuwululidwa ndikuchepetsa pamwamba. Ndiloleni ndikuwuzeni kuti, osachepera ndi nkhani yakutsogolo pa 9/11/21, the NYT atha kukhala kuti akutenga udindo wa Kayafa, mkulu wa ansembe wokhala ku Ufumu wakale. "Ndi kwabwino kuti munthu m'modzi afe," akuti adalongosola kuti: "Kodi sukuwona kuti kutipindulitsa kuti munthu m'modzi afe… koposa kuti dziko lonse liwonongedwe." ("Fuko" potengera nkhaniyi limatanthauza dongosolo la mwayi wokhala ndi omwe akuchita nawo Roma - ansembe akulu, maloya, ndi ena onse a MICIMATT a tsikulo.)
Ndipo, ndikumva kuti momwe atolankhani ena akugwiritsira ntchito buku la Woodward / Costa atha kutanthauza kuti MICIMATT tsopano ikutseka kuti iphatikizire Milley iye ngati "wokonda ukoma."
Tiyeni tiwone momwe atolankhani amakampani pano akuchitira ndi nkhani zamasiku ano kuti a General Milley atisocheretsa tonse ponena kuti kuwombera kwa US ku Kabul pa Ogasiti 29 kunali "kolungama", ndikupha wogwira ntchito ku ISIS. Pambuyo poyambitsa kafukufuku yemwe amatenga miyezi ya Pentagon, idanenanso lero kuti, ayi, anali ana 7 ogwira ntchito yothandizira ochokera ku United States yopanda phindu, ndi ena awiri omwe adaphedwa. Zomwe zapezazi, zomwe zimawonekera kale kwa owerenga NY Times, zidabwera mwachangu modabwitsa. Ngati Biden alibe kulimba mtima kuti amuchotse Milley, tiyeni tifulumire kumuchotsa - kaya akhale wosalankhula, wosamvera, wopusitsa - kapena onse atatu.
Ndatero kuyankhulana pamwambapa pa Lachisanu.
Ray McGovern amagwira ntchito ndi Tell the Word, gulu lofalitsa la Mpingo wa Mpulumutsi wa mumzinda wa Washington. Ntchito yake yazaka 27 monga wofufuza za CIA ikuphatikiza kukhala Chief of the Soviet Foreign Policy Branch komanso wokonzekera / kufotokoza za Purezidenti Daily Brief. Ndiwomwe adakhazikitsa nawo Veteran Intelligence Professionals for Sanity (VIPS).
