Ruzha rwekutinhira kwe drone haruna kupera. Chombo chinorira mumba mako chakaoma kupotsa. Pfuti kurira. Musuwo wakabva wapinda. Aya haasi majeti emaoko. Asi bhuku idzva raNorman Solomon rinonzi Hondo Yakaitwa Isingaoneki. Chii?
Ehe, vanhu vane hurumende inotungamira mugadziri wehondo uye vanotengesa zvombo kazhinji havana chekuita nehondo. Vazhinji vavo havasi muchiuto. Vazhinji vavo havashandire bhizimisi rezvombo. Vazhinji vacho havagone kudoma mazhinji ehondo dziri kuitika parizvino. Uye vazhinji vavo havazive kuti nyika yavo ndiyo inotungamira mutengesi wezvombo, muvaki wepasi, anokonzeresa coup, mhondi ye drone, uye wager yehondo.
Vanhu veUnited States havanyatsoona mabhomba, kuparadzwa, rima remagetsi raenda, nzara, kushaya pekugara, nharaunda ine chepfu, mhirizhonga isingaperi uye hasha. Hondo inotaridzika zvakanyanya semutambo wevhidhiyo kana bhaisikopo. Uye, kutaura zvazviri, vanhu vazhinji vanoona yakawanda mitambo yemavhidhiyo nemabhaisikopo kupfuura kunyange sanitized nhau "mishumo" nezvehondo.
Hondo dzakawanda hadzina kumbo "kutaurwa" zvachose neUS corporate media. Nhengo dzeCongress dzinodzidza nezvehondo, dzimwe nguva, chete kana mauto eUS achida mariro. Asi mamercenaries anoderedza dambudziko iroro. Ndizvo zvakaitawo marobhoti. Ndoitawo ma proxies.
Ehe, kune zororo rehondo pese paunotendeuka, uye zviitiko zvemitambo zvinotanga nemhemberero dzehondo dzinopihwa mari neruzhinji tisati tatenda mauto eUS nekuona kubva kumarudzi zana nemakumi manomwe neshanu. Tsika yese ine mauto - yakashongedzerwa kumeno, yakachengetedzwa uye simbi inotariswa, mutauro wemauto wakajairwa, wakaraswa veterans mumigwagwa nemumatirongo. Miganhu inzvimbo dzehondo. Asi izvi zvese zvinoonekwa - kana riri iro izwi - seyakajairwa uye isingadzivisike, kwete sechiratidzo chekuti kune hondo iri kuitika. Mutsika yeUS izwi rekuti "hondo" rinowanzo reva chimwe chinhu chisingaenderane nehondo - hondo paKisimusi, hondo yekuvanzika, hondo yekumuka, nezvimwe.
Hondo chaidzo dzinoitwa pasina gakava reruzhinji, pasina mhirizhonga yeCongressional, pasina mvumo yeCongress kana kuziva. Congress inorasa inopfuura hafu yemari yainopa gore rega rega mumushini wehondo, asi inobhadhara zvishoma kune zvinoitika kwairi. In vhidhiyo svondo rapfuura, Imwe nhengo yeCongress inofambira mberi yakazivisa kuti yaitsigira kutumira zvombo kuUkraine kuhondo, asi kuti yakanga isingazivi zvinoreva "Donbas" kana "Crimea."
Nei achifanira kudaro? Wese Democrat uye yega yega Republican muUS Congress inotsigira muchina wehondo. Sei uchidzidzira hunyengeri hwegakava risingazomboitirwe? Corporate media kutarisisa kuhondo hakuenderane nehuwandu hwayo hwekushandisa discretionary. Kazhinji hazvipo zvachose, uye kana zvasvika tingave nani tisina. (Iko zvakare hapana kutaurwa pamusoro pekuti ndeipi chikamu chemari yemubatanidzwa inoenda kuhondo, saka hazvisi sekunge vanhu vachiziva uye vanobvuma izvozvo.)
Ukraine ndiyo yakakosha, yakasarudzwa hondo. Iri muUS corporate media. Kushuma uku kunosanganisira vakawirwa nehondo nenzira iyo vazhinji vedu takashuvira kuti vezvenhau vataure nezve vakawirwa nedzimwe hondo dzakawanda. Asi hapana chinhu pane zvakakonzera kuhondo, pakupikisa hurumende yeUS kupedza hondo, kana kuipa kwerinopfuura divi rimwe rehondo. Vakakuvadzwa vanoshumwa, asi havaverengwi. Ukuru hwokuparadzwa kwoupenzi hahuna kujekeswa. Ngozi yehondo yenyukireya inonzvengwa. Pfungwa yekuti hondo inogona kunge isiri yemutemo zvakakwana inowana kutaurwa kwenguva pfupi (pekupedzisira!) zvichireva kune rimwe divi. Pfungwa yekuti mabhomba emapoka, kupwanya nyama yevana vadiki, inogona kunge isinganakidze inopinda munhau dzeUS sezvo Russia inoashandisa, uye inobva sezvinodiwa nehurumende yeUS kuvapa kuUkraine.
Norman Solomon anotipa mamwe manzwisisiro ekuti uyu mufananidzo-wakanyanya-kupfuura-upofu unogadzirwa sei, mabatirwo anoitwa vatori venhau vanobuda mumutsara, kuti vaya vanoenda kumutsara vanopihwa mubairo sei, vanoridza muridzo vanorangwa sei, uye kuti kuruka kunorukwa sei. Chero kutaurwa kwevanhu vanofa muAfghanistan paCNN kwaidiwa kuti kusanganise hurukuro yaGunyana 11, 2001, sechikonzero chakakwana. Hondo dziri kuuraya kwedivi rimwe revanhu vari kure dzinoitwa kuti dzisaonekwe nekusarangarira vanhu ivavo sevanokosha. Vatengi vezvenhau veUS vanofunga kuti muhondo dzeUS vanhu vakaurayiwa vanenge hafu inoumbwa nemauto eUS. Zvakadaro vanhu vamwechete vangatsamwiswa nechero fungidziro yekuti mupfuri mukuru muchitoro chezvitoro cheUS akatambura zvakanyanya sezvaakaita.
Dubya yakarambidza makaseti eUS kubva pamhepo. Biden akazivisa kuti United States ine runyararo. Vazhinji vangashamisika kana yanga isati yave nerunyararo kwemakore ese achitambanuka pakati pedambudziko iri kare kare muIraq uye kutsva kutsva kwehondo munyika muUkraine. Asi chero chakaitika muIraq hachifanirwe kunge chiri mhosva yaGeorge W. Bush, sezvo achigamuchirwa muhurumende nenhepfenyuro saHenry Kissinger, uye anogamuchirwa zvakanyanya kupfuura ani nani anopikisa chero hondo. Kana paine akaitwa mukurumbira kana zororo, saMartin Luther King Jr., vanongobviswa chero nhoroondo yehondo uye vanopihwa seakanyanya-kana-pasi Santa Claus uyo akambotaura achifara pamusoro pekuti zvese zvaive zvakanaka sei empire.
Kushandiswa kwatinofanira kuisa bhuku raSoromoni ndiko kunzwisisa kuti hondo inoitwa sei isingaoneki uye kutanga kuita kuti ionekwe. Chikonzero chekuita izvi chinooneka mukuedza kwese kukuru kunoenda mukuita kuti hondo isaonekwe. Izvo hazvingaitwe kana kusiri kwekutya kwakanyanya - kutya kuti kana vanhu vakangoona hondo vaizoipedza.
