Turse inotsvaga zvinyorwa zvishomanana zvichitaurirwa zvekuwedzera kweuto reUnited States kuAfrica pamusoro pemakore 14 apfuura, uye kunyanya pamusoro pemakore 6 apfuura. Varwi zviuru zvishanu kusvika kumasere eUnited States pamwe nemakemenari vari kudzidzira, kuhondo, uye kurwisana pamwe chete nekurwisana nemapoka eAfrica uye mapoka evapanduki munharaunda yese yeAfrica. Nyika yakawanda nemigwagwa yemvura kuti inounze zvombo zveU.S., uye kubvumirana kwose kwezvigaro zvehurumende dzeUSU, zvakasimbiswa kuti dzirege kuchengetedzwa kwepakagadzirwa nekuvakwa nekuvandudza zvikwata zvemhepo. Uye zvakadaro, mauto eUnited States akaenderera mberi kuwana zvibvumirano zvomunharaunda kuti ashandise hurumende dzenyika dzepasi rose dze29 uye akawana kushanda kuvaka nekuvandudza kumhanya kune dzakawanda.
Mauto eUS e Africa anosanganisira eirstrikes uye commando kurwisa muLibya; "Vatema ops" mamishini uye kuuraya kwe drone muSomalia; proxy war muMali; zviito zvakavanzika muChad; anti-piracy mashandiro ayo anokonzeresa kuwedzera piracy muGulf yeGuinea; yakakura-siyana dhoni mashandiro kunze kwemabhesi muJibouti, Ethiopia, Niger, uye Seychelles; "Akasarudzika" mashandiro kunze kwenzvimbo muCentral African Republic, South Sudan, neDemocratic Republic of Congo; CIA kubhururuka muSomalia; vanodarika gumi nemaviri ekudzidzira kurovedza muviri pagore; kurwa nekudzidziswa kwemauto munzvimbo dzakaita seUganda, Burundi, neKenya; "mubatanidzwa unokosha mashandiro" mashandiro muBurkina Faso; kuvakwa kwepasi kunoitirwa kugadzirisa "ma" surges "emauto emangwana; mauto evatsori vemauto; kuwedzera kweaimbova mauto eFrance ekune dzimwe nyika muJibouti uye kuita hondo pamwe chete neFrance muMali (Turse inofanirwa kuyeuchidzwa nezvechimwe chinoshamisa kutora US kutora hutongi hweFrance inozivikanwa sehondo yeVietnam).
AFRICOM (Africa Command) iri kumusoro kuGerman nehurongwa hwekuvakira kune hofori nyowani US base yakavakirwa muVicenza, Italy, zvichipesana nekuda kweVicentini. Zvikamu zvakakosha zvechimiro cheAFRICOM zviri muSigonella, Sicily; Rota, Spain; Arubha; uye Souda Bay, Greece - ese mauto eU.S.
Zvakaitwa munguva pfupi yapfuura zvemauto eU.S. muAfrica mapindiro akanyarara anomira mukana wakanaka wekutungamira kumhirizhonga yakakwana kuti ishandiswe senzira yekurwira yeruzhinji mune ramangwana nenzira yehondo hombe dzinozotengeswa pasina kutaurwa nezvechikonzero chavo. Masimba masimba emangwana ane mukurumbira angangotyisidzira dzimba dzeUS nekutyisidzira asi kutyisidzira kwechiIslam nemadhimoni muUS "nhau" mishumo inokurukurwa mubhuku raTurse izvozvi uye zviri kusimuka izvozvi mukupindura zvemauto zvisingawanzo kukurukurwa munhau dzemubatanidzwa dzeUS.
AFRICOM iri kufambira mberi nekuvanda kwakawanda sezvazvinogona, kuyedza kuchengetedza kunyepedzera kwekuzvitonga ne "vehukama" vehurumende yemuno, pamwe nekudzivirira kuongororwa kwenyika. Saka, haina kukokwa neruzhinji rwevanhu. Haisi kukwira mukati kudzivirira zvimwe zvinotyisa. Pakave pasina gakava reruzhinji kana danho neruzhinji rweUS. Sei, saka, iyo United States ichifambisa Hondo yeUS ichigadzira kuAfrica?
Mutungamiriri weAFRICOM General Carter Ham anotsanangura zvemauto eUS se Africa semhinduro kumatambudziko aanogona kugadzira mune ramangwana: "Zvakakosha kwazvo kumauto eUnited States kuchengetedza America, maAmerican, nemaAmerican zvido zvavo" zviri pachena chimwe chinhu chisiri icho. MaAmerican]; kwatiri, kwandiri, kutidzivirira kubva kutyisidziro dzinogona kubuda mukondinendi yeAfrica. ” Yakabvunzwa kuti itarise kutyisidzira kwakadai muhupenyu huripo, AFRICOM haigoni kudaro, ichinetseka kuita sekuti vapanduki vemuAfrica vari chikamu cheal Qaeda nekuti Osama bin Laden akambovarumbidza. Munguva yekushanda kweAFRICOM, mhirizhonga yave ichiwedzera, mapoka evapanduki ari kuwedzera, hugandanga huchikwira, uye nyika dzakundikana dzichiwanda - uye kwete netsaona.
Iyo inongedzera ku "zvido zveAmerica" inogona kuve mucherechedzo kune zvinokurudzira chaiko. Izwi rekuti "purofiti" rinogona kunge rakasiiwa netsaona. Chero zvazvingaitika, zvinangwa zvakataurwa hazvisi kushanda mushe mushe.
Hondo ye2011 yeLibya yakatungamira kuhondo kuMali uye mhirizhonga muLibya. Uye mashomashoma eruzhinji mashandiro anga asiri asina njodzi. Hondo yakatsigirwa neUS kuMali yakatungamira kurwiswa kuAlgeria, Niger, neLibya. Mhinduro yeUS kumhirizhonga yakakura muLibya yanga ichiri mhirizhonga yakawanda. Mumiriri weUS muTunisia akarwiswa akapiswa. Masoja eCongo akadzidziswa neUnited States akabata chibharo vakadzi nevasikana, vachienzanisa hutsinye hwakaitwa nemauto eEthiopiya akadzidziswa neUS. MuNigeria, Boko Haram yakamuka. ICentral African Republic yakave nehutongi. Nzvimbo yeGreat Lakes yaona mhirizhonga ichisimuka. South Sudan, iyo iyo United States yakabatsira kuumba, yakawira muhondo yevagari vemo uye nenjodzi dzevanhu. Et cetera. Izvi hazvisi zvitsva zvachose. Mauto eUS mukuchidzira hondo refu muCongo, Sudan, nekune dzimwe nzvimbo pamberi pe "pivot" yazvino Africa. Nyika dzeAfrica, senyika munyika dzese, vanotenda kutenda United States ndiyo ngozi huru kune rugare panyika.
Turse inoshuma kuti mutauriri we AFRICOM, Benjamin Benson aigara achidana kuti Gulf yeGuinea senge inofungidzirwa kuti inyaya yekubudirira, kudzamara kuzviita kusingatendeseki zvekuti akatanga kutaura kuti haasati ambodaro. Turse inoshumawo kuti njodzi yeBanghazi, zvinopesana neyakajairwa pfungwa, yakave hwaro hwekuwedzera humiriri hweUS mu Africa. Kana chimwe chinhu chisiri kushanda, edza zvimwe zvacho! Anodaro Greg Wilderman, maneja weChirongwa Chekuvaka Mauto kuV Naval Facilities Engineering Command, "Tichava muAfrica kwenguva inotevera. Pane zvakawanda zvekuita ipapo. ”
Mumwe munhu munguva pfupi yapfuura akandiudza kuti China yakatyisidzira kucheka mari yemabhirionari weUS Sheldon Adelson kubva kumakasinasi kuChina kana akaramba achipa mari kumakurukota eConfereresist airamba kuenda kuhondo neIran. Izvo zvinonzi zvinokurudzira izvi ndezvekuti China inogona nani kutenga mafuta kubva kuIran kana Iran isiri muhondo. Chokwadi kana kwete, izvi zvinoenderana netsananguro yaTurse nemaitiro eChina kuAfrica. IUS inovimba zvakanyanya mukugadzira hondo. China inovimba zvakanyanya nerubatsiro uye mari. IUS inogadzira nyika inotongerwa kuparara (South Sudan) uye China inotenga mafuta ayo. Izvi zvechokwadi zvinomutsa mubvunzo unonakidza: Sei United States isingakwanise kusiya nyika murunyararo uye zvakadaro, seChina, kuzvigamuchira pachavo kuburikidza nerubatsiro nerubatsiro, uye zvakadaro, seChina, tenga mafosili ekuparadza hupenyu. pasi pano nenzira isiri yehondo?
Mumwe mubvunzo unodzvanya wakasimudzwa nemauto ehurumende yaVaObama kuAfrica, hongu, ndewekuti: Unogona here kufungidzira kupatsanura nzeve kusingaperi kwehuwandu hwehasha hwehasha yaive neRungu reRepublican raita izvi?
