Nkhondo, Mtendere ndi Otsatira a Purezidenti

Ndi Medea Benjamin ndi Nicolas JS Davies, March 27, 2019

Zaka makumi anayi zisanu zitatha Congress idapititsa Nkhondo Yachiwawa potsirizira nkhondo ya Vietnam, ili potsiriza anagwiritsa ntchito izo nthawi yoyamba, Kuyesera kuthetsa nkhondo ya US-Saudi pa anthu aku Yemen ndikubwezeretsanso ulamuliro wawo pamalamulo okhudza nkhondo ndi mtendere. Izi sizinaimitse nkhondo panobe, ndipo Purezidenti Trump waopseza kuti adzabweza votiyo. Koma gawo lake ku Congress, komanso mkangano womwe wabweretsa, itha kukhala gawo loyambirira panjira yovuta yopita ku mfundo zakunja zaku US zaku Yemen ndi kupitirira.

Ngakhale kuti United States yakhala ikuchita nawo nkhondo nthawi zambiri, popeza 9 / 11 ikuukira asilikali ankhondo a US akugwira ntchito nkhondo zambiri omwe apitilira kwa pafupifupi zaka makumi awiri. Ambiri amawatcha "nkhondo zopanda malire." Chimodzi mwazofunikira zomwe taphunzira kuchokera apa ndikuti ndikosavuta kuyambitsa nkhondo kuposa kuziletsa. Chifukwa chake, monga tawonera kuti nkhondoyi ndi "yatsopano", anthu aku America ndi anzeru, akuyitanitsa zochepa asilikali ndi kuwonetseratu zapadera.

Zonse za dziko ndi zanzeru pa nkhondo zathu, naponso. Tengani nkhani ya Venezuela, kumene malo opangira Trump amatsutsa kuti zankhondo ndizo "patebulo." Ngakhale kuti ena a azungu a Venezuela akugwirizana ndi mayiko a US kuti awononge boma la Venezuela, palibe akupereka asilikali awo.

Izi zimagwirizananso ndi mavuto ena am'deralo. Iraq ikukana kutumikira monga malo a nkhondo ya US-Israeli ndi Saudi ku Iran. Otsatira a chikhalidwe cha ku America akutsutsana ndi kugwirizana kwa Trump kuchoka kudziko lina la Iran ndi mgwirizano wa nyukiliya ndipo akufuna kukhala mwamtendere, osati nkhondo, ndi Iran. Dziko la South Korea likudzipereka kuti likhale mwamtendere ndi North Korea, ngakhale kuti Trump akukambirana ndi mkulu wa North Korea Kim Jung Un.

Ndiye pali chiyembekezo chotani kuti chimodzi mwazomwe ma Democrat omwe akufuna kukhala purezidenti mu 2020 atha kukhala "wokonda mtendere" weniweni? Kodi mmodzi wa iwo angathetse nkhondozi ndikuletsa zatsopano? Kubwereranso ku Cold War ndi mpikisano wamanja ndi Russia ndi China? Kodi zingachepetse asitikali aku US komanso bajeti yake yowononga zonse? Kulimbikitsa zokambirana ndikudzipereka kumalamulo apadziko lonse lapansi?

Kuyambira pomwe oyang'anira a Bush / Cheney adakhazikitsa masiku ano "Nkhondo Zazitali," apurezidenti atsopano ochokera maphwando onsewa achita zopempha zamtendere pamasankho awo. Koma ngakhale a Obama kapena a Trump sanayesetse mwamphamvu kuthetsa nkhondo zathu "zopanda malire" kapena kuwonongera ndalama zathu zankhondo zomwe zathawa.

Kutsutsa kwa Obama ku nkhondo ya Iraq ndi malonjezo osadziwika kwa njira yatsopano inali yokwanira kuti amupatse iye utsogoleri ndi Mphoto ya Mtendere wa Nobel, koma osati kutibweretsera mtendere. Pomaliza pake, adagwiritsa ntchito zankhondo kuposa Bush ndipo adagwetsa mabomba ambiri m'mayiko ena, kuphatikizapo a kuwonjezeka kwa khumi mu kugunda kwa CIA drone. Chidziwitso chachikulu cha Obama chinali chiphunzitso chazinsinsi komanso zoyimira nkhondo zomwe zidachepetsa akuvulala aku US ndikuchepetsa nkhondo zapabanja, koma zidabweretsa ziwawa ndi zipolowe ku Libya, Syria ndi Yemen. Kukula kwa Obama ku Afghanistan, "manda olamulira", adasintha nkhondoyi kukhala nkhondo yayitali kwambiri ku US kuyambira US akugonjetsa wa Chimereka America (1783-1924).

Kusankhidwa kwa Trump kunalimbikitsidwanso ndi malonjezo onyenga onena za mtendere, ndi ankhondo a nkhondo amasiku ano omwe akuwombola mavoti oyipa m'mayiko othamanga a Pennsylvania, Michigan ndi Wisconsin. Koma Trump mwamsanga adzizungulira yekha ndi akuluakulu ndi neocons, kuwonjezera nkhondo ku Iraq, Syria, Somalia ndi Afghanistan, ndipo wagwirizana kwambiri ndi nkhondo yotsogozedwa ndi Saudi ku Yemen. Alangizi ake a hawkish adatsimikiza kuti njira iliyonse ya US ku mtendere ku Syria, Afghanistan kapena Korea idzakhala yophiphiritsira, pamene mayiko a US akuwononga dziko la Iran ndi Venezuela akuopsya dziko lapansi ndi nkhondo zatsopano. Kudandaula kwa Trump, "Sitipambana," akuyendetsa pulezidenti wake, akunena mwamantha kuti akufunabe nkhondo yomwe "akhoza kupambana."

Ngakhale sitingatsimikizire kuti ofuna kutsatira adzakwaniritsa malonjezo awo a kampeni, ndikofunikira kuyang'ana gawo latsopanoli la omwe akufuna kukhala purezidenti ndikuwunika malingaliro awo - ndipo, ngati kuli kotheka, zolemba zovota - pazokhudza nkhondo ndi mtendere. Ndi chiyembekezo chotani chamtendere chomwe aliyense wa iwo angabweretse ku White House?

Bernie Sanders

Senemaat Sanders ali ndi mbiri yabwino yosankha voti aliyense payekha pa nkhondo ndi mtendere, makamaka pa ndalama zankhondo. Povutitsa bajeti ya Pentagon, adangotenga 3 kuchoka ku 19 ndalama zogwiritsira ntchito magulu kuyambira 2013. Mwa muyeso uwu, palibe munthu wina aliyense amene akuyandikira, kuphatikiza a Tulsi Gabbard. M'mavoti ena pa nkhondo ndi mtendere, a Sanders adavota monga adapemphedwa ndi Peace Action 84% ya nthawiyi kuchokera ku 2011 mpaka ku 2016, ngakhale mavoti a hawkish ku Iran kuchokera ku 2011-2013.

Chinthu chimodzi chotsutsana ndi Sanders chotsutsana ndi ndalama zogonjetsa asilikali ndi zake thandizo zida zankhondo zotsika mtengo kwambiri komanso zowononga padziko lonse: ndege yankhondo yomenyera ndege ya F-35. Sikuti Sanders adangogwirizira F-35, adakankhira - ngakhale adatsutsa komweko - kuti atenge ndege zankhondozi ku eyapoti ya Burlington ku Vermont National Guard.

Pofuna kuthetsa nkhondo ku Yemen, Sanders wakhala akugonjetsa. Chaka chapitacho, iye ndi a Senators Murphy ndi Lee adayesetsa kuyesetsa kulimbikitsa malipiro ake a nkhondo ku Yemen kupyolera mwa Senate. Congressman Ro Khanna, yemwe Sanders wamusankha kukhala mmodzi wa mipando yake ya 4, yatsogolera ntchito yofananayi m'nyumba.

Pulojekiti ya Sanders '2016 inalimbikitsa kuti anthu ambiri azitha kulandira chithandizo chamankhwala komanso chikhalidwe cha zachuma komanso zachuma. Pambuyo pa kubisa Clinton chifukwa chokhala "Mopitirira mu kusintha kwa boma," iye ankawoneka ngati akukayikira kukangana naye pa ndondomeko yachilendo, ngakhale zolemba za hawkish. Mosiyana ndi zimenezi, panthawi yomwe pulezidenti akuthamanga, nthawi zonse amatha kukhala ndi Military-Industrial Complex pakati pa zokhudzana ndi kusintha kwake kwa ndale, ndipo zolemba zake zovota zimamuthandiza.

Sanders amathandizira kuchoka kwa US ku Afghanistan ndi Syria ndikutsutsa kuopseza kwa US kuti amenya nkhondo ndi Venezuela. Koma malingaliro ake onena zakunja nthawi zina amapusitsa atsogoleri akunja m'njira zomwe mosazindikira amapereka thandizo ku "kusintha kwa maulamuliro" mfundo zomwe amatsutsana nazo - monga pomwe adalowa nawo gulu la andale aku US omwe amatcha Colonel Gaddafi waku Libya kukhala “Wachiwawa ndi wakupha,” Pasanapite nthawi yaitali, magulu akuluakulu a dziko la United States atapha Gaddafi.

Tsegulani Zinsinsi akuwonetsa Sanders akulowetsa $ 366,000 ku "chitetezo" pa nthawi ya pulezidenti wake wa 2016, koma $ 17,134 yekha pulojekiti yake ya 2018 Senate.

Chifukwa chake funso lathu pa Sanders ndikuti, "Ndi Bernie uti yemwe titha kumuwona ku White House?" Kodi ndi amene ali ndi chidziwitso komanso kulimba mtima kuti avote "Ayi" pa 84% ya ndalama zogwiritsira ntchito yankhondo ku Senate, kapena amene amathandizira zida zankhondo ngati F-35 ndipo sangathe kukana kubwereza zonyoza za atsogoleri akunja ? Ndikofunikira kuti Sanders asankhe alangizi otsogola amitundu ina zakutsogolo pantchito yake, kenako ndi oyang'anira ake, kuti athandizane ndi zomwe akudziwa komanso chidwi ndi mfundo zapakhomo.

Akunena mosapita m'mbali kuti akutsutsana ndi kulowererapo kwa "kusintha kwa maulamuliro" aku US, komanso Nkhondo Yazizira Yatsopano ndi mpikisano wamanja ndi Russia, ndikuthandizira kuyambiranso mgwirizano wanyukiliya waku Iran. Anali mlembi woyambirira wa Billman wa Khothi Lankhondo ku Yemen.

Koma kafukufuku weniweni wa Gabbard pa nkhani za nkhondo ndi mtendere, makamaka pa ndalama zamagulu, sizowoneka ngati za Sanders '. Anavotera 19 ya 29 ndalama zogwiritsira ntchito magulu m'zaka zapitazi za 6, ndipo ali ndi 51% Peace Action ikuvota.

Iye akadali m'gulu lankhondo ndipo akuphunzira zomwe amatcha "malingaliro ankhondo." Anamaliza CNN Town Hall yake ponena kuti kukhala Commander-in-Chief ndiye gawo lofunikira kwambiri pokhala Purezidenti.

Kodi angakhale Major wokhala ndi malingaliro asitikali, yemwe sangadzipangitse kuti alande anzawo ankhondo zida zatsopano kapenanso kuchotsera 1% kuchokera pamililiyoni ya madola pazogwiritsa ntchito asitikali? Kapena kodi ndi msirikali wakale amene wawona zowopsa zankhondo ndipo watsimikiza mtima kubweretsa asitikali kwawo osawatumizanso kuti akaphe ndi kuphedwa mu ulamuliro wosatha wosintha nkhondo?
