Kutaura kwaRonald Reagan kumashure muna 1984 kuti "hondo yenyukireya haigoni kuhwina uye haifanirwe kurwiwa" inoita seyakagamuchirwa mumativi ezvematongerwo enyika muUS nekune dzimwe nyika. Mwero wekuparadza waizoguma waita kuti zvisaite kuti masisitimu ezvokurapa apindure zvakaringana uye zvakanyanya kutungamirira mukushanduka kwemamiriro ekunze pasi rose. Reagan akaenderera mberi achiti: “Kukosha chete munyika dzedu mbiri dzine zvombo zvenyukireya kuve nechokwadi kuti hazvizomboshandiswi. Asi hazvingavi nani here kuvaparadza zvachose?"
Makore makumi matatu gare gare, kukangaidzika kwokudzivisa—masimba mapfumbamwe enyukireya ane zvombo zvakachengetwa akagadzirira chose chose kushandiswa zvokuti haasati achizotongofanira kushandiswa—kuri kure nokupedzwa. Zvichakadaro 9-11 yakarerekera fungidziro dzedu kuhugandanga hwekuda kuzviuraya. Kuva nepfumo redu guru uye rakasiyana-siyana rezvombo zvenyukireya hakuzodzivisi munhu akatsunga. Kutya kwakava nesimba zvokuti hakuna kungokurudzira kuwanda kunotyisa kwemasangano anounganidza mashoko asiwo kuurayiwa uye kutambudzwa. Anything yakave yakaruramiswa, kusanganisira mabhiriyoni emadhora akapera hondo, kudzivirira muvengi asina kunaka kubva pakuisa maoko avo panuke.
Pane maflashpoints apo masisitimu akagadzirirwa akavimbika uye nekusingaperi kudzivirira akasviba munzvimbo nyowani yekupunzika kwekudzivirira? Muenzaniso we du jour iPakistan, uko hurumende isina simba inochengetedza yakagadzikana-tinovimba-inodzivirira kuenzana kwemauto enyukireya kurwisa India. Panguva imwecheteyo Pakistan inotenderera nevanonyanyisa vane hukama hunogona kunzwira tsitsi kumauto ePakistani uye masevhisi ehungwaru. Izvi zvinotarisa paPakistan ndezvekufungidzira. Kungava kusaruramisira. Chombo chenyukireya chinogona kungodonha mukutonga kwehurumende zviri nyore munzvimbo dzakaita seCaucasus kana-ndiani anoziva?—kunyangwe pane imwe nzvimbo yeU. Icho chiripo ndechekuti kutya kwemamiriro ezvinhu akadaro kunokanganisa kufunga kwedu sezvatinonetseka kupindura zvine hungwaru kune chokwadi chekuti kudzivirira kwenyukireya hakutadzise.
Kuona zvibereko zvekutya uku kunokoka zvizere kuona maitiro mukati menguva, kusanganisira nguva yemberi. Iyo nharo yakajairika yekuti kudzivirira kwenyukireya kwakatichengetedza kwemakumi emakore akawanda inotanga kuparara kana tikangofungidzira nyika mbiri dzinogona kuitika: nyika yatiri kuenda kugehena-yakakotama kana tikasachinja nzira, umo kutya kuzvikwidziridza kunosimudzira. nyika dzakawanda dzine zvombo zvenyukireya, kana kuti nyika isina munhu anazvo. Ndeipi nyika yaunoda kuti vana vako vagare nhaka?
Kudzivisa hondo yeCold kwainzi zvakakodzera kuti chiyero chekutya. Ikozvino kupatsanurwa kwevasingatarisire vanonyanyisa uye vane mutoro, nyika inozvifarira inokurudzira kuvhiringidzika kwepfungwa kweOrwellian: isu tinoramba zviri nyore kuti zvombo zvedu zvenyukireya irwo rudzi runotyisa rwekutya - rwunoitirwa kutyisidzira vanopikisa kuti vangwarire. Tinoaita zviri pamutemo semidziyo yekupona kwedu. Panguva imwecheteyo isu tinoronga izvi zvakarambwa kutya pamusoro pevavengi vedu, tichivawedzera kuva hofori dzakatsveyama dzehuipi. Kutyisidzira kwehugandanga kwesutukesi nuke kunopindirana nekutyisidzira kwakamutswa kwehondo inotonhora ichipisa sezvo West vachitamba huku yenyukireya naPutin.
Rugare kuburikidza nesimba runofanira kutsanangurwa patsva—kuva rugare sesimba. Iyi nheyo, iri pachena kumasimba maduku akawanda, asiri enyukireya, inonzwisiswa nokusada uye nokukurumidza kurambwa nemasimba aripo. Hongu masimba aripo haafarire kuva nevavengi nekuti vavengi vari nyore mune zvematongerwo enyika kuhutano hwakasimba hwekugadzira zvombo, hurongwa hunosanganisira kudzoreredza kunodhura kunodhura kwezvombo zvenyukireya zveUS zvinoparadza zviwanikwa zvinodiwa padambudziko riri kuuya rekutendeuka. kune simba risingaperi.
Mushonga wehutachiona hweEbola-sekutya kutanga kubva pafungidziro yehukama uye kudyidzana - kunyangwe nevavengi. Hondo yechando yakaguma nekuti veSoviet neAmerica vakaziva kuti vaive nechishuwo chakafanana chekuona vazukuru vavo vachikura. Zvisineyi kuti vanhu vanonyanya kufa, vane hutsinye uye vane hutsinye vanoita sei kwatiri, tinogona kusarudza kusavaderedza. Tinogona kuchengeta maonero edu nekurangarira hutsinye hwakaitika munhoroondo yedu, kusanganisira nyaya yekuti isu taive vekutanga kushandisa zvombo zvenyukireya kuuraya vanhu.
