Pa Seputembara 18, olamulira a Trump, akudzudzula Iran, adalengeza kuti ikukhazikitsa zilango zambiri ku Iran ndi mawu pafupi ndi a Donald Trump akufuna kumenya nawo nkhondo.

Aka sikanali koyamba kuti a Houthi abweretse mkanganowo pa nthaka ya Saudi pamene akukana kuphulika kwa mabomba ku Saudi ku Yemen.

Asilamu a Shia, omwe amapanga pafupifupi 15-20 peresenti mwa anthu a m'dziko lino lolamulidwa ndi Sunni, akhala akutsutsidwa kwa zaka zambiri ndipo ali ndi a m'mbiri za kuwukira boma. Chifukwa chake ndizotheka kuti ena amgulu la Shia mkati mwa ufumuwo atha kupereka chithandizo chanzeru kapena zothandizira pakuukira kwa a Houthi, kapena kuthandizira asitikali aku Houthi kuponya mizinga kapena ma drones mkati mwa Saudi Arabia.

Mlembi wa boma Mike Pompeo, komabe, adadzudzula Iran, ponena kuti mphepo yamkuntho idagunda kumadzulo ndi kumpoto chakumadzulo kwa malo opangira mafuta, osati kumwera komwe kumayang'ana ku Yemen. Koma Iran siili kumadzulo kapena kumpoto chakumadzulo ngakhale - ili kumpoto chakum'mawa. Mulimonsemo, ndi gawo liti la zida zomwe zidagundidwa sizitanthauza kuti zida zoponya kapena ma drones zidachokera komwe. Iran amakana mwamphamvu kuchita chiwembucho.

CNN inanena kuti ofufuza a Saudi ndi US amati "ndichotheka kwambiri" kuti chiwonongekocho chinayambika kuchokera ku Iran ku Iran pafupi ndi malire ndi Iraq, koma kuti US kapena Saudi Arabia sanapange umboni uliwonse wotsimikizira izi.

Koma mu lipoti lomwelo, CNN inanena kuti zidutswa za mizinga zomwe zidapezeka pamalopo zikuwoneka kuti zidachokera ku zida za Quds-1, mtundu waku Iran womwe a Houthis adawulula mu Julayi motsatira mawu oti, "Nthawi Yobwera Yodabwitsa," komanso yomwe atha kukhala nayo. adagwiritsidwa ntchito pachiwonetsero pa Abha Airport kumwera kwa Saudi Arabia mu Juni.

A Unduna wa Zachitetezo ku Saudi Nkhani ya atolankhani Lachitatu, Seputembara 18, idauza atolankhani padziko lonse lapansi kuti kuwonongeka kwa zida zoponyera zida za Iran kumatsimikizira kuti Iran idachita nawo chiwembucho, komanso kuti zida zapamadzi zidawulukira kuchokera kumpoto, koma Saudis sanathe kufotokoza za komwe iwo anali. anayambika kuchokera.

Komanso Lachitatu, Purezidenti Trump adalengeza kuti adalamula Dipatimenti ya Chuma cha US kuti "kwambiri" iwonjezere zilango zake motsutsana ndi Iran. Koma zilango zomwe zilipo kale ku US zikuyika kale zopinga zazikuluzikulu zomwe zimalepheretsa kutumizira mafuta aku Iran kunja ndikutumiza kunja kwa chakudya, mankhwala ndi zinthu zina zogula kotero kuti ndizovuta kulingalira kuti zilango zatsopanozi zitha kubweretsa zowawa zotani pazachuma. anthu ozunguliridwa ndi Iran.

Ogwirizana ndi US akuchedwa kuvomereza zonena za US kuti Iran idayambitsa chiwembucho. Minister of Defense waku Japan anauza olemba nkhani "Tikukhulupirira kuti a Houthis adachita chiwembuchi potengera zomwe adanena kuti ndi omwe adachita nawo." The United Arab Emirates (UAE) idawonetsa kukhumudwa kuti US idafulumira kuloza chala ku Iran.

Tsoka ilo, umu ndi momwe maulamuliro aku US amagulu awiriwa adayankhira zochitika ngati izi m'zaka zaposachedwa, akutenga chifukwa chilichonse chochitira ziwanda ndikuwopseza adani awo ndikupangitsa kuti anthu aku America azikonzekera nkhondo.

Ngati Iran idapatsa a Houthis zida kapena thandizo lothandizira pakuwukiraku, izi zitha kuyimira gawo laling'ono chabe la zida zopanda malire komanso zothandizira zomwe US ​​ndi ogwirizana nawo aku Europe apereka ku Saudi Arabia. Mu 2018 yokha, bajeti yankhondo ya Saudi inali $ Biliyoni 67.6, ndikupangitsa kuti ikhale yachitatu padziko lonse lapansi yowononga kwambiri zida ndi magulu ankhondo pambuyo pa US ndi China.

Pansi pa malamulo ankhondo, a Yemenis ali ndi ufulu wodziteteza okha. Izi zikuphatikizanso kubwereranso kumalo opangira mafuta omwe amapanga mafuta a ndege zankhondo za Saudi zomwe zidachitika 17,000 ndege zowonongeka, kuponya mabomba okwana 50,000 makamaka opangidwa ndi US, pazaka zoposa zinayi zankhondo ku Yemen. Mavuto omwe amabwera chifukwa cha chithandizo amaphanso mwana waku Yemen mphindi zilizonse za 10 ku matenda otetezedwa, njala ndi kusowa kwa zakudya m'thupi.

The Ntchito ya Yemen Data wasankha pafupifupi gawo limodzi mwa magawo atatu a ziwombankhanga zaku Saudi zakuukira malo omwe si ankhondo, zomwe zimatsimikizira kuti gawo lalikulu la osachepera 90,000 Yemenis akuti aphedwa pankhondoyo akhala anthu wamba. Izi zimapangitsa kampeni yotsogozedwa ndi Saudi kukhala chigawenga chodziwika bwino chankhondo chomwe atsogoleri aku Saudi ndi akuluakulu akudziko lililonse mu "mgwirizano" wawo ayenera kuyimbidwa mlandu.

Izi zikuphatikiza Purezidenti Obama, yemwe adatsogolera US kunkhondo mu 2015, ndi Purezidenti Trump, yemwe adasunga US mumgwirizanowu ngakhale nkhanza zake zidawululidwa ndikudabwitsa dziko lonse lapansi.

Kuthekera kwatsopano kwa a Houthis kumenyanso pamtima pa Saudi Arabia kungakhale kulimbikitsa mtendere, ngati dziko lingatengere mwayi uwu kutsimikizira a Saudis ndi olamulira a Trump kuti nkhondo yawo yowopsa, yolephera siyenera mtengo womwe adzakhala nawo. kulipira kuti apitirize kulimbana nazo. Koma ngati tilephera kulanda mphindi ino, zitha kukhala chiyambi cha nkhondo yokulirapo.

Chifukwa chake, chifukwa cha anthu omwe akuvutika ndi njala komanso kufa ku Yemen komanso anthu aku Iran akuvutika ndi "kupsinjika kwakukulu" kwa zilango zazachuma za US, komanso tsogolo la dziko lathu komanso dziko lapansi, iyi ndi mphindi yofunika kwambiri.

Ngati asitikali aku US, kapena Israeli kapena Saudi Arabia, akadakhala ndi ndondomeko yotheka kuukira Iran popanda kuyambitsa nkhondo yayikulu, akadachita kalekale. Tikuyenera uzani Lipenga, Atsogoleri a Congression ndi zonse oimira athu osankhidwa kuti timakana nkhondo ina komanso kuti tikumvetsetsa momwe kuukira kulikonse kwa US ku Iran kungapitirire mwachangu kukhala nkhondo yosasunthika komanso yowopsa yachigawo kapena yapadziko lonse lapansi.

Purezidenti Trump adati akuyembekezera a Saudis kuti amuwuze yemwe ali ndi udindo pazomenyera izi, ndikuyika asitikali aku US motsogozedwa ndi Kalonga wa Saudi Crown Mohammed Bin Salman.

Munthawi yonse ya utsogoleri wake, a Trump adayendetsa mfundo zakunja zaku US ngati chidole cha Kalonga waku Saudi Mohammed Bin Salman ndi Prime Minister waku Israeli Netanyahu, akunyoza zonena zake zandale za "America Choyamba". Monga Rep. Tulsi Gabbard amatsitsa, “Kuchititsa dziko lathu kukhala ngati njuchi ya Saudi Arabia si 'America Choyamba.'

Senema Bernie Sanders wanena kuti Trump alibe chilolezo kuchokera ku Congress kuti awononge dziko la Iran ndipo mamembala ena 14 a Congress anenanso zomwezi, kuphatikiza omwe akufuna kukhala pulezidenti. Senator Warren ndi Congresswoman Gabbard.

Congress idapereka kale Chigamulo cha Nkhondo Zankhondo kuti athetse mgwirizano wa US pankhondo yotsogozedwa ndi Saudi ku Yemen, koma Trump adatsutsa izi. Nyumbayi yatsitsimutsa chigamulocho ndipo adachiphatikiza ngati chosintha kupita ku bilu yankhondo ya FY2020 NDAA. Ngati Nyumba ya Senate ivomereza kusunga lamuloli mu bilu yomaliza, idzapereka Trump ndi chisankho pakati pa kuthetsa udindo wa US pa nkhondo ku Yemen kapena kutsutsa bajeti yonse ya 2020 ya US.

Ngati Congress itenganso bwino udindo wawo pazandale za US pankhondoyi, ikhoza kukhala nthawi yovuta kwambiri kuthetsa nkhondo yosatha yomwe US ​​yadzibweretsera yokha komanso dziko lonse lapansi kuyambira 2001.

Ngati anthu aku America alephera kuyankhula tsopano, titha kuzindikira mochedwa kuti kulephera kwathu kulowa mgulu lathu, olamulira okonda kutentha kwatifikitsa kumapeto kwa Nkhondo Yachitatu Yadziko Lonse. Tikukhulupirira kuti vutoli lidzutsa chimphona chomwe chagona, anthu ambiri aku America okonda mtendere, kuti alankhule motsimikiza za mtendere ndikukakamiza Trump kuti aike zofuna za anthu aku America pamwamba pa omwe adagwirizana nawo osakhulupirika.
