Chodetsa nkhawa changa sikuti United States, monga m'modzi mwa omwe akukonzekera zaka zinayi chifukwa chake, amapeza chiphaso pamakhalidwe ake onse. Chodetsa nkhawa changa ndichakuti US idaposa FIFA chaka chino, komanso chaka chilichonse, ku Qatar. US yayika zinthu zisanu ndi chimodzi muulamuliro wowopsa wamafuta pang'ono, chilichonse chomwe chili choyipa kuposa World Cup.

Chinthu choyamba ndi malo ankhondo aku US omwe amatumiza asitikali ndi zida ndi zida za US ku Qatar, ndi mafuta ku United States, pomwe akuthandizira kulimbikitsa wolamulira wankhanza komanso kuphatikizira Qatar kunkhondo zaku US. Zinthu zisanu zina zirinso Maziko ankhondo aku US - maziko ogwiritsidwa ntchito ndi asitikali aku US - ku Qatar. US imasunga ake ochepa ankhondo ku Qatar, komanso zida, ndi masitima apamtunda, komanso ngakhale ndalama ndi madola amisonkho aku US, gulu lankhondo la Qatari, lomwe adagulidwa pafupifupi madola biliyoni a zida za US chaka chatha. Kodi ofufuza a John Oliver sanapeze bwanji izi? Ngakhale maziko ndi asitikali aku US ku Saudi Arabia, komanso kugulitsa zida zazikulu zaku US ku ulamuliro wankhanza wankhanzawo, zikuwoneka kuti sizikuwoneka. Kuchuluka kwa asitikali aku US omwe ali pafupi ndi Bahrain sikudziwika. Momwemonso omwe ali ku UAE ndi Oman. Zomwezo kwa mabungwe onse aku US ndi asitikali aku Kuwait, Iraq, Syria, Egypt, Israel, ndi zina zotero.

Koma taganizirani vidiyo yomwe ingapangidwe ngati mutuwo unali wovomerezeka. Kufunika kotha kuyambitsa nkhondo mwachangu padziko lonse lapansi sikumatsimikiziranso maziko ankhondo yaku US. Ndipo komabe maziko akupitilirabe, kulimbikitsa olamulira ankhanza omwe amawonedwa ndi boma la US kukhala ofunikira kugwira nawo ntchito, ndendende monga momwe FIFA idatchulidwira kuti ikuwona Qatar mu kanema wa John Oliver.

Ma media aku US amagwira ntchito mosiyanasiyana, kuyambira pa Wall Street Journal kumapeto kumodzi kuzinthu ngati mavidiyo a John Oliver kumbali inayo. Kutsutsidwa kwa asitikali aku US kapena nkhondo zake kapena maziko ake akunja kapena kuthandizira kwake kwaulamuliro wankhanza kuli kunja kwamtunduwu.

Zaka ziwiri zapitazo, ndinalemba buku lotchedwa "Olamulira ankhanza 20 Panopa Akuthandizidwa ndi US" Ndidawonetsa ngati m'modzi mwa anthu 20 osankhidwa omwe adakali ndi mphamvu ku Qatar, Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani. Wolamulira wankhanza ameneyu sanali yekha amene anaphunzitsidwa ku Sherborne School (International College) ndi Harrow School, komanso ku Royal Military Academy Sandhurst, yomwe "inaphunzitsa" olamulira ankhanza osachepera asanu mwa 20. Anapangidwa kukhala msilikali wa asilikali a Qatar kuchokera ku Sandhurst. Mu 2003 anakhala wachiwiri kwa mkulu wa asilikali. Anali atayeneretsedwa kale kukhala wolowa m'malo pampando wachifumu pokhala ndi mpumulo ndipo mchimwene wake wamkulu sankafuna gigi. Bambo ake adalanda mpando wachifumu kwa agogo ake pagulu lankhondo lothandizidwa ndi France. Emir ali ndi akazi atatu okha, mmodzi yekha ndi msuweni wake wachiwiri.

Sheikh ndi wolamulira wankhanza komanso bwenzi labwino la ofalitsa demokalase padziko lonse lapansi. Adakumana ndi a Obama ndi a Trump ku White House ndipo akuti anali abwenzi ndi a Trump ngakhale chisankho chomalizachi chisanachitike. Pamsonkhano wina wa Trump White House, adagwirizana ndi "mgwirizano wachuma" ndi United States womwe umaphatikizapo kugula zinthu zambiri kuchokera ku Boeing, Gulfstream, Raytheon, ndi Chevron Phillips Chemical.

Pa Januware 31 chaka chino, malinga ndi a Webusaiti ya White House, “Pulezidenti Joseph R. Biden, Jr. adakumana lero ndi Amir Sheikh Tamim Bin Hamad Al-Thani waku Qatar. Onse pamodzi, adatsimikiziranso chidwi chawo cholimbikitsa chitetezo ndi chitukuko ku Gulf ndi dera lonse la Middle East, kuonetsetsa kuti mphamvu zapadziko lonse zikuyenda bwino, kuthandiza anthu aku Afghanistan, komanso kulimbikitsa mgwirizano wamalonda ndi zachuma. Purezidenti ndi Amir alandila kusaina kwa mgwirizano wa $ 20 biliyoni pakati pa Boeing ndi Qatar Airways Group, womwe udzathandizire makumi masauzande a ntchito zopanga US.

"

Qatar yathandiza asitikali aku US (ndi asitikali aku Canada) pankhondo zosiyanasiyana, kuphatikiza Gulf War, Nkhondo ya Iraq, Nkhondo ya Libya, komanso kulowa nawo kunkhondo ya Saudi / US ku Yemen.

Qatar sinakhale mdani wodalirika wa Iran nthawi zonse. Chifukwa chake, kuchita ziwanda kwa Emir wake ku US media kutsogolera kunkhondo yatsopano sikudutsa momwe mungaganizire, koma pakadali pano ndi bwenzi lapamtima komanso bwenzi lake.

Malinga ndi Dipatimenti ya US State mu 2018, "Qatar ndi ufumu wachifumu womwe Amir Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani amagwiritsa ntchito mphamvu zonse. . . . Nkhani zaufulu wa anthu zikuphatikizapo kuphwanya malamulo; kuletsa kusonkhana mwamtendere ndi ufulu wosonkhana, kuphatikizapo kuletsa zipani za ndale ndi mabungwe ogwira ntchito; zoletsa ufulu woyendayenda kwa ogwira ntchito osamukira kumayiko ena; kuchepetsa kuthekera kwa nzika kusankha boma pa chisankho chaufulu ndi chilungamo; ndi kuletsa kugonana kwa amuna kapena akazi okhaokha. Panali malipoti oti boma lidachitapo kanthu kuti lithane nalo. O, chabwino, bola ngati kunatenga masitepe kuti awathane nawo!

N'chifukwa chiyani kulondola koteroko kungakhale kosayenera? Sikuti boma la US silingatsutsidwe. Ndi chifukwa asilikali a US ndi ogulitsa zida sangathe kutsutsidwa. Ndipo lamulo limenelo likugwiritsidwa ntchito mosamalitsa kotero kuti siliwoneka.
