Panthawi ya WWI, asilikali a US adagwiritsa ntchito malo omwe tsopano ndi gawo la sukulu pano ku American University kupanga ndi kuyesa zida za mankhwala. Kenako inakwirira zimene Karl Rove akanatcha kuti milu yaikulu mobisa, inasiya, ndi kuiŵala, kufikira pamene gulu la zomangamanga linazivundukula mu 1993. Ntchito yoyeretsayo ikuchitika popanda mapeto. Malo amodzi omwe Asitikali adagwiritsa ntchito utsi wokhetsa misozi anali paokha omwe adabwera ku DC kukafuna mabonasi. Kenako, pankhondo yachiŵiri yapadziko lonse, asilikali a ku United States anataya zida za mankhwala zochuluka kwambiri m’nyanja ya Atlantic ndi Pacific. Mu 1943 mabomba a ku Germany anamiza sitima yapamadzi ya US ku Bari, Italy, yomwe inkanyamula mobisa mapaundi okwana miliyoni a mpiru. Ambiri mwa oyendetsa ngalawa aku US adamwalira ndi poizoni, womwe United States idati idagwiritsa ntchito ngati choletsa, ngakhale sindikuganiza kuti idafotokoza momwe china chake chimalepheretsa kubisala. Sitimayo ikuyembekezeka kupitiriza kutayira mpweya m'nyanja kwa zaka mazana ambiri. Pakadali pano United States ndi Japan zidasiya zombo zopitilira 1,000 pansi pa Pacific, kuphatikiza matanki amafuta.
Ndimatchula za ziphe zankhondo zomwe zili pamalo omwewo osati ngati zachilendo, koma monga momwe zimakhalira. Pali malo asanu ndi limodzi a Superfund omwe akuwononga mtsinje wa Potomac, monga momwe Pat Elder adanena, ndi chirichonse kuchokera ku Acetone, Alkaline, Arsenic, ndi Anthrax kupita ku Vinyl Chloride, Xlene, ndi Zinc. Masamba onse asanu ndi limodzi ndi magulu ankhondo aku US. M'malo mwake, 69 peresenti ya malo owopsa a Superfund kuzungulira United States ndi asitikali aku US. Ndipo ili ndi dziko lomwe akuti likuchita "ntchito" zamtundu wina. Zomwe asitikali ankhondo aku US ndi asitikali ena amachita padziko lonse lapansi ndizosamvetsetseka kapena zosamvetsetseka.
Asitikali aku US ndi omwe amagula mafuta ambiri padziko lonse lapansi, akuwotcha kuposa mayiko ambiri. Mwina ndidumpha gulu lankhondo laku US lomwe likubwera mtunda wa makilomita 10 ku DC pomwe anthu adzakhala "Kuthamangira Madzi Oyera" - madzi ku Uganda. Pakagawo kakang'ono kamene Congress idangowonjezera ndalama zankhondo zaku US, titha kuthetsa kusowa kwa madzi aukhondo padziko lonse lapansi. Ndipo mtundu uliwonse ku DC uyenera kukhala kutali ndi mitsinje ngati sukufuna kukumana ndi zomwe Asitikali aku US amachitira madzi.
Zomwe kukonzekera nkhondo ndi nkhondo kudziko lapansi kwakhala nkhani yovuta kuyipeza. Chifukwa chiyani omwe amasamala za dziko lapansi angafune kutenga bungwe lokondedwa komanso lolimbikitsa lomwe lidatibweretsera Vietnam, Iraq, njala ku Yemen, kuzunzidwa ku Guantanamo, ndi zaka 16 zakuphedwa koyipa ku Afghanistan - osatchulanso zakulankhula kowala kwa Purezidenti. Donald J. Trump? Ndipo n’cifukwa ciani amene amatsutsa kuphedwa koculuka kwa anthu angafune kusintha nkhaniyo kukhala kugwetsa nkhalango ndi mitsinje yapoizoni ndi zimene zida za nyukiliya zimacita padziko lapansi?
Koma zoona zake n’zakuti ngati nkhondo inali ya makhalidwe abwino, yalamulo, yoteteza, yopindulitsa kufalitsa ufulu, ndiponso yotsika mtengo, tikadayenera kuithetsa kuti ikhale yofunika kwambiri chifukwa cha chiwonongeko chimene nkhondo ndi kukonzekera nkhondo zikuchita monga mtsogoleri. owononga chilengedwe chathu.
Ngakhale kutembenukira kuzinthu zokhazikika kutha kudzilipira pazosungirako zachipatala, ndalama zochitira izi zilipo, nthawi zambiri, mu bajeti yankhondo yaku US. Pulogalamu imodzi ya ndege, F-35, ikhoza kuthetsedwa ndipo ndalama zomwe zimagwiritsidwa ntchito kutembenuza nyumba iliyonse ku United States kuti ikhale yoyeretsa mphamvu.
Sitipulumutsa nyengo ya dziko lathu monga munthu payekhapayekha. Timafunikira zoyesayesa zapadziko lonse lapansi. Malo okhawo omwe chuma chingapezeke ndi msilikali. Chuma cha mabiliyoni sichinayambe kulimbana nacho. Ndipo kuchotsa izo ku usilikali, ngakhale popanda kuchita china chirichonse ndi izo, ndi chinthu chimodzi chabwino kwambiri chimene tingachitire dziko lapansi.
Misala ya chikhalidwe cha nkhondo yachititsa kuti anthu ena aganizire za nkhondo ya nyukiliya yochepa, pamene asayansi amati nuke imodzi ikhoza kukankhira kusintha kwa nyengo mopanda chiyembekezo, ndipo owerengeka akhoza kutipha ndi njala. Chikhalidwe chamtendere ndi chokhazikika ndicho yankho.
Pulogalamu ya Presidential Presidential campaign Donald Trump inasaina kalata yofalitsidwa pa December 6, 2009, patsamba 8 la New York Times, kalata yopita kwa Purezidenti Obama yomwe imatcha kusintha kwa kayendedwe ka nyengo ndi vuto lomwelo. "Chonde musabwererenso dziko lapansi," linatero. "Ngati talephera kuchitapo kanthu panopo, sizosamvetsetseka kuti sayenera kukhala ndi zotsatira zoopsya komanso zosasinthika kwa anthu komanso dziko lapansi."
Pakati pa madera omwe amavomereza kapena kulimbikitsa kuyambika kwa nkhondo, zotsatira za kuwonongeka kwa chilengedwe zikhoza kuphatikizapo kuwonjezereka kwa nkhondo. Ndizowona zabodza komanso kudzigonjetsera kunena kuti kusintha kwanyengo kumangoyambitsa nkhondo popanda bungwe lililonse laumunthu. Palibe mgwirizano pakati pa kusowa kwa zinthu ndi nkhondo, kapena kuwonongeka kwa chilengedwe ndi nkhondo. Komabe, pali kugwirizana pakati pa chikhalidwe kuvomereza nkhondo ndi nkhondo. Ndipo dziko lino, makamaka mbali zina zake, kuphatikizapo United States, likuvomereza nkhondo - monga zikuwonekera mu chikhulupiriro chosapeŵeka.
Nkhondo zomwe zimawononga chiwonongeko cha chilengedwe ndi kusunthira anthu ambiri, kuchititsa nkhondo zambiri, kupangitsa chiwonongeko chowonjezereka ndi vuto lalikulu lomwe tiyenera kutaya nalo poteteza zachilengedwe ndi kuthetseratu nkhondo.
