Australia inoita kunge inobata mibvunzo yakawanda mukati mayo kupfuura chero imwe nyika. Isu tinobvunza kune zvese, kubva kune vemuIndia kufa vari muchitokisi, kushungurudzwa pabonde kwevana, uye kuroorwa pabonde kumabhanga zvisirizvo, mashandiro ecasino, mhinduro dzehosha, uye mhosva dzehondo. Pane imwechete kunze kwekushushikana kwedu nekuzviongorora: Hondo dzeAustralia.
In Hondo dzisingakoshi, munyori wenhoroondo Henry Reynolds anoyeuka kuti mushure mehondo Australia haibvunze kuti sei takarwa, nemhedzisiro, kana nemubhadharo. Tinokumbira chete sei takarwa, sekunge hondo yaive mutambo wenhabvu.
YekuAustralia Hondo Chirangaridzo chakarasikirwa nechinangwa chayo chepakutanga chekurangarira, pamwe neye yambiro yekuti 'tirege kukanganwa'. Kubatikana kweAWM, naBrendan Nelson seMutungamiriri, kwakave kupemberera kwehondo dzakapfuura, nekusimudzirwa kwezvombo, zvakanyanya kutengwa nemutengo mukuru kubva kumakambani anotsigira iyo AWM. Bhodhi rayo, rinotungamirwa naKerry Stokes uye rinosanganisira Tony Abbott, harisanganisi mumwe munyori wenhoroondo.
Hurumende iri kucheka kudzidzisa nhoroondo kumayunivhesiti. Panzvimbo pekudzidza izvo zvatichiri kugona kubva munhoroondo yedu, Australia inodzokorora nekudzokorora. Hatina kukunda muhondo kubva 1945. MuAfghanistan, Iraq, neSyria, takundwa mamwe matatu.
Vanhu vemuAustralia vakateterera kubvunzwa nezvehondo yeIraq, yakafanana neiyo yeBritish iri pasi paSir James Chilcot, iyo yakazivisa muna 2016 pamusoro pezvikanganiso zvakakonzera njodzi iyoyo. MuCanberra, kana Hurumende kana Kupikisa kwaisazove nebar. Panzvimbo iyoyo, ivo vakapa nhoroondo yepamutemo yehondo muEast Timor, uye Middle East, izvo zvisati zvabuda.
Kukanganisa kwemwedzi uno muAfghanistan kwaifanoitika zvachose, uye zvakafanotaurwa, kusanganisira nemaAmerican muchiuto, sekuratidzwa kwakaitwa 'Mapepa eAfghanistan' muna2019. Pamberi ipapo, iyo 'Hondo yeAfghan Matanda' yakaburitswa neWikiLeaks yakaratidza kuti 'zvachose hondo yaizoguma nekukundwa. Julian Assange achiri kuvharirwa chikamu chake mukuita izvozvo.
Kunyangwe avo vadiki kwazvo kuti vange vachiziva Vietnam pakutanga vanogona kuziva maitiro muAfghanistan: chikonzero chenhema chehondo, muvengi asinganzwisisike, zano rakaipa-rakafungidzirwa, akateedzana emastockji anomhanyisa hurumende ine huwori, kukundwa. Muhondo dzese dziri mbiri, vatevedzeri veUS vanoteedzana (nemakurukota eAustralia) vakaramba kubvuma zvaizoguma zvaitika.
Iyo CIA muAfghanistan yakadzokorora opiamu yekutengesa mashandiro ayo akamhanya muVietnam neCambodia. Taliban MKI payakatora nzvimbo muna 1996, vakavhara kurima poppy, asi mushure mekunge NATO yasvika muna 2001, heroin kunze kwenyika yakava bhizinesi senguva dzose. Vanoona nezveAmerica vanoti Taliban MKII muna 2021 vangangoda mari kubva kuzvinodhaka kumhanyisa nyika yavo yakaparadzwa, kunyanya kana US nevakabatana nayo vakamisa zvirango, kana kucheka World Bank neIMF kutsigira Afghanistan.
Kutamba kadhi rekodzero dzevanhu nguva dzose ndiyo yekupedzisira nzira yekukunda yekuMadokero. Takanzwa nezvevapanduki veTaliban vachitsika-tsika kodzero dzevakadzi nevasikana pese pakabatana kushamwaridzana kwehondo muAfghanistan. Ipapo kwaizove nekuwedzera kwemauto, mhedzisiro yacho yaive yekuuraya zviuru zvevanhuwo zvavo, kusanganisira vakadzi nevasikana.
Zvino, kana tiri kumonyanisa maoko edu akabatana zvakare, zvinogona kunge zviri mukuvhiringidzika: vakadzi vazhinji veAfghan vachiri kudzvinyirirwa neiyo imwe barbarous Taliban, uye vana vazhinji vanotambura nekushaya zvinovaka muviri uye kukura kwakadzikira? Kana kuti vakadzi vazhinji veAfghan vari kubatsirwa kubva pamakore makumi maviri ekuwana dzidzo, mabasa, uye hutano? Kana izvo zvaive zvakakosha zvakanyanya, sei VaTrump vakagura mari yeUS yemabasa ekuronga mhuri? (Biden, kuchikwereti chake, akadzorera muna Kukadzi).
Kune vakawanda vakafa uye vakakuvara, kugona kwevakadzi vese nevarume kuchazodiwa, sekutaura kwevatungamiriri veTaliban. Kusvika pamwero wekuti maIslam achashanda kwete isu, nyika dzakarasikirwa nehondo, kusarudza. Saka nei US iri kufunga nezvezvirango, izvo zvichawedzera kuita hurombo munyika? Ehezve, senge nehondo dzese dzekuAmerica dzakapfuura, pakanga pasina kutaurwa nezvekudzoserwa, izvo zvaizobatsira Afghanistan kuti iite nyika-yayo kuvaka nenzira yayo. Izvo zvingave zvakawandisa kutarisira kubva kune vakarasikirwa zvakanyanya, kusanganisira Australia.
Afghanistan yave nemazana emakore iri panzvimbo yakakosha yeiyo 'mutambo mukuru' pakati peEast neWest. Nehondo ichangoburwa yarasika, muyero wemagetsi uri kusimuka zvine mutsindo uchienda kuEast Asia - chimwe chinhu Kishore Mahbubani weSingapore anga achifanotaura kweanopfuura makumi maviri emakore. China iri kutora nyika kuCentral Asia, kwete kuti irwe hondo, asi kuti ibatsirwe neShanghai Cooperation Organisation, iyo Central uye Eastern Europe Nharaunda, uye iyo Belt uye Road Initiative. Iran nePakistan zvino vabatanidzwa, uye Afghanistan inogona kutarisirwa kutevera. China iri kuwana simba mudunhu rese kuburikidza nerunyararo nekusimudzira, kwete hondo nekuparadza.
Kana maAustralia vakasafuratira shanduko muyero wepasirese wepasi rose uri kuitika pamberi pedu, isu tichazotambura nemhedzisiro yacho. Kana isu tisingakwanise kukunda maTaliban, tichakunda sei muhondo neChina? Kurasikirwa kwedu kuchave kukuru zvisingaenzaniswi. Pamwe pavanosangana muWashington munaGunyana, Mutungamiriri anogona kuda kubvunza kana Mutungamiri Biden vachiri kutenda kuti America yadzoka, uye inoda hondo neChina. Asi Biden haana kana kunetseka kufonera Morrison kuti vataure nezverwendo rweKabul. Zvakawandisa pakuisa mari muhondo yeAfghanistan, iyo yaifanirwa kutitengera kupinda muWashington.
Zvidzidzo zvenhoroondo yedu zviri pachena. Tisati tavadzokorora nekutora China nekukoka njodzi yakaipisisa, ANZUS pamakumi manomwe inoda kuongororwa zvakakwana, uye Australia inoda kumwe kubvunzwa kwakazvimirira, kweruzhinji - ino nguva muhondo muAfghanistan, Iraq, neSyria.
