Nkhondo Yachiwerewere (tsatanetsatane)

Kupha ndizolakwa zomwe timaphunzitsidwa kuti tizitha kukhululukira ngati zachitidwa mokwanira. Makhalidwe amafuna kuti tisamatsutse. Nkhondo si chinthu chinanso kupatula kupha pamtanda waukulu.

Kwazaka mazana ambiri ndi makumi asanu, imfa imakhala yochuluka mu nkhondo yakula kwambiri, idasinthira kwambiri anthu wamba m'malo molimbana ndi nkhondo, ndipo yapezeka ndi zovulaza monga momwe anthu ambiri anavulala koma mankhwalawa awalola kuti apulumuke. Imfa tsopano ikuyenera makamaka chifukwa cha chiwawa m'malo mwa matenda, omwe poyamba anali opha anthu ambiri mu nkhondo. Nkhani za imfa ndi zovulaza zasintha kwambiri kumbali imodzi pa nkhondo iliyonse, m'malo mogawidwa mofanana pakati pa maphwando awiri. Okhumudwa, anasiya pokhala opanda, ndi zina zowonongedwa zimaposa kwambiri ovulala ndi akufa. Kulongosola kumodzi pakuchepa kwa kulengeza kwa boma komanso kufalitsa nkhani zakufa kumafotokozanso mbali ina ya nkhondo ndikuti nkhondo zomwe mayiko olemera amalimbana ndi osauka asandukira amuna, akazi, ana, okalamba, ndi makanda. Lingaliro la "nkhondo yabwino" kapena "nkhondo yachilungamo" imamveka yonyansa ngati munthu ayang'ana moona mtima pakudziyimira pawokha zankhondo. "Simungapambane pankhondo monga momwe mungapambanitsire chivomerezi," atero a Jeanette Rankin, mayi wankhondo wamkulu yemwe adavotera US kuti ilowe nawo nkhondo ziwiri zapadziko lonse lapansi.

Mufilimuyo Chokhumba Chachikulu: Kutsiriza Nyukiliya, wopulumuka wa Nagasaki akukumana ndi wopulumuka ku Auschwitz. Zimakhala zovuta kuwayang'ana ndikukumana pamodzi kuti azikumbukira kapena kusamala kuti ndi mtundu wanji umene ukuchita mantha. Nkhondo ndizolakwa osati chifukwa cha amene akuchita koma chifukwa cha zomwe zili. Pa June 6, 2013, NBC News anafunsa woyang'anira ndege wina wa ku America dzina lake Brandon Bryant yemwe anavutika maganizo kwambiri chifukwa cha ntchito yake yopha anthu a 1,600:

Brandon Bryant akunena kuti anali atakhala pampando ku Nevada Air Force yomwe ikugwiritsira ntchito kamera pamene gulu lake linathamangitsa mizati iwiri kuchokera ku drone kwa amuna atatu akuyenda mumsewu pakati pa dziko lonse ku Afghanistan. Mabotiwa amagonjetsa zolinga zitatuzi, ndipo Bryant akunena kuti akhoza kuona zotsatira zake pamakompyuta ake-kuphatikizapo mafano otentha a chiwopsezo cha magazi otentha.

Iye adakumbukira kuti, "Mnyamatayo akuyendayenda, akusowa mwendo wake wamanja." 'Ndipo ine ndikuyang'ana munthu uyu akuwombera kunja, ine ndikutanthauza, magazi ali otentha.' Pamene munthuyu adafa thupi lake linakula, adatero Bryant, ndipo chifaniziro chake chotentha chinasintha kufikira atakhala mtundu wofanana ndi nthaka.

'Ndikutha kuona pixel yaing'ono,' anatero Bryant, yemwe watulukira kuti ali ndi matenda osokonezeka maganizo, 'ngati ndingotseka maso anga.'

'Anthu amati kumwa mowa ndikumenyana ndi ziwawa,' adatero Bryant. 'Chabwino, zida siziwona izi. Artillery samawona zotsatira za zochita zawo. Zimatikonda kwambiri, chifukwa tikuwona zonse. ' ...

Iye sadakayikire ngakhale kuti amuna atatuwa ku Afghanistan anali ogawenga a Taliban kapena amuna okha omwe ali ndi mfuti m'dziko limene anthu ambiri amanyamula mfuti. Amunawa anali makilomita asanu kuchokera ku magulu a ku America akukangana pamene msilikali woyamba adawagwera. ...

Amakumbukiranso kuti akukhulupirira kuti adawona mwana akuwombera pamsana wake pamsana mbuyomu asanamenyane ndi mfuti, ngakhale atatsimikiziridwa kuchokera kwa ena kuti chiwerengero chomwe adawona chinali galu.

Atatha kuchita nawo mautumiki mazana ambiri pazaka, Bryant adati 'wataya ulemu pa moyo' ndipo anayamba kumva ngati anthu. ...

Mu 2011, pomwe ntchito ya Bryant monga woyang'anira drone yayandikira, adanena mkulu wake anamuuza kuti ali ndi ndalama zambiri. Idawonetsa kuti adagwira nawo ntchito zomwe zinapangitsa kuti anthu a 1,626 aphedwe.

'Ndikanakhala wosangalala ngati sakanandiwonetsanso pepala,' adatero. 'Ndaona asilikali a ku America akufa, anthu osalakwa amafa, ndipo amenyera akufa. Ndipo si wokongola. Sindikufuna kukhala ndi diploma iyi.

Tsopano popeza ali kunja kwa Air Force ndi kunyumba kwawo ku Montana, Bryant adati sakufuna kuganiza kuti ndi anthu angati omwe ali mndandandawo omwe angakhale osalakwa: 'Ndizowawa kwambiri.' ...

Pamene adawuza mayi wina kuti akuwona kuti wakhala akugwiritsira ntchito drone, ndipo adawathandiza kuti anthu ambiri aphedwe, adamudule. Iye adandiyang'ana ine ngati ndine nyamakazi, adatero. 'Ndipo iye sanafune kundikhudza ine kachiwiri.'

Tikanena kuti nkhondo imabwerera zaka 10,000 sizikuwoneka kuti tikukamba za chinthu chimodzi, kusiyana ndi zinthu ziwiri kapena zosiyana zomwe zikupita ndi dzina lomwelo. Yerekezerani banja lina ku Yemen kapena ku Pakistan komwe limakhala pansi phokoso lopangidwa ndi drone pamwamba. Tsiku lina nyumba yawo ndi onse omwe ali mmenemo akuphwanyika ndi msilikali. Kodi iwo anali pankhondo? Kodi nkhondo inali kuti? Zida zawo zinali kuti? Ndani adalengeza nkhondo? Nchiyani chinatsutsidwa mu nkhondo? Zidzatha bwanji?

Tiyeni titenge mulandu wa wina yemwe akuchita nawo chigawenga chotsutsa-US. Akukankhidwa ndi msilikali kuchokera ku ndege yomwe sumawonekere ndipo yaphedwa. Kodi iye anali pankhondo monga momwe Msilikali wachigiriki kapena wachiroma angazindikire? Nanga bwanji wankhondo mu nkhondo yoyamba yamakono? Kodi munthu amene amaganiza za nkhondo ngati akufuna kumenya nkhondo ndi kumenyana pakati pa magulu awiri ankhondo amadziwa kuti msilikali wotchedwa drone atakhala pa desiki yake akuyendetsa kompyuta yake yosangalala monga wankhondo nkomwe?

Monga kunjenjemera, nkhondo idakaliyidwanso ngati mgwirizano wovomerezeka pakati pa awiri ochita masewera olimbitsa thupi. Magulu awiri adagwirizana, kapena olamulira awo anavomera, kupita ku nkhondo. Tsopano nkhondo nthawizonse imagulitsidwa ngati njira yomaliza. Nkhondo nthawi zonse zimamenyera "mtendere," pamene palibe amene amapanga mtendere chifukwa cha nkhondo. Nkhondo imayesedwa ngati njira zosayenera kuti zitheke kumapeto kwake, udindo wonyansa umene umayenera kukhala wosayenerera mbali inayo. Tsopano mbali inayo sikumenyana ndi nkhondo yeniyeni; koma mbali yomwe ili ndi matelogalamu a satelesi ndiyo kusaka anthu omwe amati ndi othamanga.

Chotsatira cha kusintha uku sikunali teknoloji yokha kapena ndondomeko ya nkhondo, koma kutsutsa pagulu poyika asilikali a US ku nkhondo. Chimodzimodzinso kutayika "anyamata athu" makamaka chomwe chinayambitsa Vietnam Syndrome. Kudandaula kotereku kunachititsa kuti dziko la United States likutsutsa nkhondo za Iraq ndi Afghanistan. Ambiri ambiri a ku America analibe komanso sakudziwa za kukula kwa imfa ndi kuzunzidwa kumene anthu akukumana nawo kumbali zina za nkhondo. (Boma likuletsedwa kuwauza anthu, omwe amadziwika kuti akuyankhira bwino kwambiri.) Ndi zoona kuti anthu a US sanaumirirebe kuti boma lawo liwadziwitse kuti akuvutika chifukwa cha nkhondo za US. Ambiri, malinga ndi momwe amadziwira, akhala akulekerera ululu wa alendo. Koma imfa ndi kuvulazidwa kwa asilikali a US zakhala zopanda malire. Izi zimapangitsa kuti US atsopano apite ku nkhondo za mlengalenga ndi nkhondo za drone.

Funso ndiloti nkhondo ya drone ndi nkhondo nonse. Ngati itamenyedwa ndi ma robbo omwe mbali ina silingathe kuyankha, kodi ikufanana bwanji ndi zomwe timagawana m'mbiri ya anthu monga kupanga nkhondo? Kodi sichoncho mwina kuti tatha kale nkhondo ndipo tsopano tiyenera kutsiriza china chake (dzina lake lingakhale: kusaka kwa anthu, kapena ngati mukufuna kupha, ngakhale kuti izi zikusonyeza kuti kuphedwa kwa anthu alionse)? Ndiyeno, kodi sizingatheke kuti titsimikize kuti chinthu china chimatiwonetsa ife ndi malo ochepa olemekezeka kuti tiwonongeke?

Zolinga zonse, nkhondo ndi kusaka anthu, zimaphatikizapo kupha alendo. Zatsopanozi zikuphatikizapo kupha anthu a ku United States mwachangu, koma wakalewo anaphatikizapo kupha anthu achibwibwi kapena azondi a US. Komabe, ngati tingasinthe njira yathu yakupha alendo kuti asamazindikire, ndani anganene kuti sitingathe kuthetsa chizoloŵezi chonsecho?
