Wolemba Medea Benjamin ndi Nicolas JS Davies, Meyi 4, 2020

Monga Purezidenti Trump adandaula, US sikupambananso nkhondo. M'malo mwake, kuyambira 1945, nkhondo za 4 zokha zomwe zidapambana zinali pamagulu ang'onoang'ono a neocolonial a Grenada, Panama, Kuwait ndi Kosovo. Anthu aku America kudutsa ndale amatchula nkhondo zomwe US ​​​​idayambitsa kuyambira 2001 ngati nkhondo "zosatha" kapena "zosapambana". Tikudziwa pakadali pano kuti palibe chigonjetso chotheka chomwe chingawombole kupanda pake kwa chigamulo chamwayi cha US gwiritsani ntchito gulu lankhondo mwaukali komanso mosaloledwa pambuyo pa kutha kwa Cold War komanso milandu yowopsa ya Seputembara 11. Koma nkhondo zonse ziyenera kutha tsiku lina, ndiye kodi nkhondozi zidzatha bwanji?

Pamene Purezidenti Trump akuyandikira kumapeto kwa nthawi yake yoyamba, akudziwa kuti anthu ena aku America amamuimba mlandu chifukwa cha malonjezo ake ophwanya kuti abweretse asilikali a US kunyumba ndi kuthetsa nkhondo za Bush ndi Obama. Kupanga nkhondo kwa tsiku ndi tsiku kwa a Trump sikunanenedwe ndi omvera, atolankhani aku US, omwe amalemba pa tweet, koma a Trump adatsika. Mabomba 69,000 ndi zoponya ku Afghanistan, Iraq ndi Syria, kuposa mwina Bush kapena Obama adachita m'mawu awo oyamba, kuphatikiza pakuwukira kwa Bush ku Afghanistan ndi Iraq.

Pansi pa chivundikiro za kutumizidwanso kwamagulu ang'onoang'ono ankhondo ochokera kumalo ochepa akutali ku Syria ndi Iraq, a Trump alidi. kukodzedwa Maziko aku US ndi kutumizidwa osachepera 14,000 yambiri Asitikali aku US kupita ku Middle East wamkulu, ngakhale pambuyo pa mabomba aku US ndi zida zankhondo zomwe zidawononga Mosul ku Iraq ndi Raqqa ku Syria inatha mu 2017. Pansi pa mgwirizano wa US ndi a Taliban, Trump potsiriza adavomera kuchotsa asilikali a 4,400 ku Afghanistan pofika July, akusiyabe osachepera 8,600 kuti awononge ndege. "kupha kapena kulanda" kuwukira komanso kukhala kwaokha komanso kuvutitsidwa ndi usilikali.

Tsopano kuyitanidwa kokakamiza kwa Secretary General wa UN Antonio Guterres kwa a moto wapadziko lonse panthawi ya mliri wa COVID-19 wapatsa Trump mwayi wothetsa mwaulemu nkhondo zake zosagonjetseka - ngati akufunadi. Mayiko opitirira 70 asonyeza kuti akuchirikiza kuthetsa nkhondo. Purezidenti Macron waku France adanena pa Epulo 15 kuti anali adanyengerera Trump kuti agwirizane ndi atsogoleri ena apadziko lonse lapansi omwe akuthandiza UN Security Council chisankho kuthandizira kuyimba kwa Secretary General. Koma m'masiku ochepa zidadziwika kuti US ikutsutsana ndi chigamulochi, ndikuumirira kuti nkhondo zake za "zolimbana ndi uchigawenga" ziyenera kupitilira, ndikuti lingaliro lililonse liyenera kutsutsa China ngati gwero la mliriwu, piritsi lapoizoni lomwe limawerengedwa kuti lipange veto yofulumira yaku China. .

Chifukwa chake a Trump adakana mwayi uwu kuti akwaniritse lonjezo lake lobweretsa asitikali aku US kunyumba, ngakhale kuti nkhondo zake zomwe zidatayika komanso kusamveka bwino kwa asitikali padziko lonse lapansi kumawulula asitikali masauzande ambiri ku kachilombo ka COVID-19. Gulu Lankhondo la US lakhala likuvutitsidwa ndi kachilomboka: kuyambira pakati pa Epulo Zombo 40 anali ndi milandu yotsimikizika, yomwe ikukhudza amalinyero 1,298. Zochita zophunzitsira, kusamuka kwa magulu ankhondo komanso kuyenda kwaletsedwa kwa asitikali aku US ndi mabanja awo. Asilikali adati Milandu ya 7,145 kuyambira Meyi 1, ndikudwala ambiri tsiku lililonse.

Pentagon ili ndi mwayi wofikira pakuyesa kwa COVID-19, zida zodzitchinjiriza ndi zinthu zina, chifukwa chake kusowa kowopsa Zothandizira pazipatala za anthu wamba ku New York ndi kwina zikuchulukirachulukira pozitumiza padziko lonse lapansi ku malo ankhondo 800, ambiri omwe ali osowa kale, owopsa kapena zopindulitsa.

Afghanistan, Syria ndi Yemen anali atavutika kale ndi mavuto azaumoyo komanso zovuta zaumoyo padziko lonse lapansi, zomwe zimawapangitsa kukhala pachiwopsezo cha mliriwu. Kubweza ndalama kwa US ku World Health Organisation kumawasiya m'mavuto oyipa kwambiri. Lingaliro la Trump loletsa asitikali aku US kumenya nkhondo zomwe zidatayika kale ku America ku Afghanistan ndi madera ena ankhondo zimangopangitsa kuti utsogoleri wake ukhale woipitsidwa ndi zithunzi zosatha za ndege za helikoputala zopulumutsa anthu aku America padenga la akazembe. Kazembe wa US ku Baghdad adamangidwa mwadala komanso mwaluso ndi helipad pansi kupewa kutengera zithunzi zaku US manyazi ku Saigon - tsopano Ho Chi Minh City.

Pakadali pano, palibe amene akugwira ntchito ya a Joe Biden akuwoneka kuti akuganiza kuti kuyitanidwa kwa UN kuti kuthetse nkhondo padziko lonse lapansi ndikofunikira kuti athe kuyimilira. Pomwe mlandu wodalirika wa chiwerewere yasokoneza uthenga waukulu wa Biden woti "Ndine wosiyana ndi Trump," posachedwapa mawu a hawkish ku China nawonso kumapitilirabe, osati kusiyanitsa, ndi malingaliro ndi mfundo za Trump. Chifukwa chake kuyitanitsa kwa UN kuti kuthetse nkhondo yapadziko lonse lapansi ndi mwayi wapadera kuti a Biden akhale ndi makhalidwe abwino ndikuwonetsa utsogoleri wapadziko lonse womwe amakonda kudzitama nawo koma sanadziwonetsere panthawi yamavuto.

Kwa a Trump kapena a Biden, kusankha pakati pa UN kuyimitsa moto ndikukakamiza asitikali omwe ali ndi kachilombo ku America kuti apitirize kumenya nkhondo zomwe zidatayika kwanthawi yayitali kuyenera kukhala kopanda nzeru. Pambuyo pa zaka 18 za nkhondo ku Afghanistan, zolemba zotayika zawonetsa kuti Pentagon sinakhalepo ndi ndondomeko yeniyeni yogonjetsa a Taliban. Nyumba yamalamulo yaku Iraq ikuyesera kuthamangitsa asilikali a US kuchokera ku Iraq kachiwiri m'zaka za 10, pamene ikukana kukokera ku nkhondo ya US ku Iran yoyandikana nayo. Othandizira aku US aku Saudi ayamba kuthandizira UN zokambirana za mtendere ndi a Houthis ku Yemen. US ndi palibe pafupi kugonjetsa adani ake ku Somalia kuposa momwe zinalili mu 1992. Libya ndi Syria kukhalabe munkhondo yapachiweniweni, zaka 9 pambuyo poti US, pamodzi ndi ma NATO ndi ma Arab monarchist allies, adayambitsa nkhondo zobisika ndi zowayimira. Chisokonezo chotsatirachi chayambitsa nkhondo zatsopano West Africa ndi mavuto othawa kwawo kudutsa makontinenti atatu. Ndipo US ikadalibe dongosolo lankhondo lothandizira kuti lithandizire zilango zosaloledwa ndi kuwopseza Iran or Venezuela.

Dongosolo laposachedwa la Pentagon lofuna kulungamitsa zofuna zake zonyansa pazachuma za dziko lathu ndikukonzanso Nkhondo Yozizira yolimbana ndi Russia ndi China. Koma asilikali ankhondo aku US kapena "expeditionary" ankhondo nthawi zonse kutaya masewera awo ankhondo oyerekeza motsutsana ndi achi Russia kapena achi China chitetezo, pamene asayansi akuchenjeza kuti mpikisano wawo watsopano wa zida za nyukiliya wabweretsa dziko lapansi pafupi ndi Doomsday kuposa ngakhale panthawi zoopsa kwambiri za Cold War.

Monga situdiyo yamakanema yomwe yatha malingaliro atsopano, Pentagon yasankha njira yotetezeka pazandale yotsatizana ndi "Cold War," woyendetsa ndalama wake womaliza "The War on Terror". Koma palibe chomwe chili chotetezeka pa "Cold War II." Itha kukhala filimu yomaliza yomwe situdiyo iyi idapangapo - koma ndani amene adzasiyidwe kuti aziyankha?

Monga omwe adamutsogolera kuchokera ku Truman kupita ku Obama, a Trump adagwidwa mumsampha wankhondo wakhungu waku America, wonyengedwa. Palibe pulezidenti amene akufuna kukhala yemwe "anataya" Korea, Vietnam, Afghanistan, Iraq kapena dziko lina lililonse lomwe layeretsedwa mwandale ndi magazi a achinyamata a ku America, ngakhale dziko lonse lapansi likudziwa kuti sayenera kukhalapo poyamba. . M'chilengedwe chofananira cha ndale zaku America, nthano zodziwika bwino zamphamvu zaku America komanso zapadera zomwe zimachirikiza ntchito yankhondo yamalingaliro aku America zimalamula kupitiliza komanso kulemekeza gulu lankhondo ndi mafakitale ngati chisankho chotetezeka pazandale, ngakhale zotsatira zake zimakhala zowopsa kwenikweni. dziko.

Ngakhale tikuzindikira zopinga izi pakupanga zisankho za Trump, tikuganiza kuti kugwirizana kwa kuyimitsidwa kwa UN kuyimitsa moto, mliri, malingaliro a anthu odana ndi nkhondo, chisankho chapurezidenti komanso malonjezo a Trump obweretsa asitikali aku US kunyumba zitha kugwirizana ndikuchita izi. chabwino mu nkhani iyi.

Ngati Trump anali wanzeru, akadagwira mphindi ino kuti agwirizane ndi kutha kwapadziko lonse kwa UN ndi manja awiri; kuthandizira lingaliro la UN Security Council kuti lithandizire kuyimitsa moto; yambani kutalikitsa asitikali aku US kwa anthu omwe akufuna kuwapha komanso malo omwe ali osalandiridwa; ndi kuwabweretsa kunyumba kwa mabanja ndi abwenzi omwe amawakonda.

Ngati ichi ndi chisankho chokhacho cholondola chomwe Donald Trump amapanga ngati Purezidenti, pamapeto pake azitha kunena kuti akuyenera kulandira Mphotho ya Mtendere ya Nobel kuposa. Barack Obama anachita.
