Kupokana Kwazvino Pamusoro peICBMs Kupokana Pamusoro peMagadzirirwo eMagadzirirwo eDoomsday Machina.

NeNorman Solomon, World BEYOND War, December 15, 2021

Zvombo zvenyukireya zviri pamusoro pezvakanzi naMartin Luther King Jr. "kupenga kwehondo." Kana uchida kusafunga nezvavo, zvinonzwisisika. Asi nzira yakadaro yokurarama nayo ine ukoshi hushoma. Uye avo vari kuita purofiti yakakura kubva mugadziriro dzekuparadzwa kwepasi rose vanowedzerwazve simba nekunzvenga kwedu.

Pamwero wemitemo yenyika, kuparara kwenyukireya kwakagadziridzwa zvokuti vashoma vanopa pfungwa yechipiri. Asi zvakajairika hazvirevi kuti ane njere. Se epigraph kubhuku rake rakajeka The Doomsday Machine, Daniel Ellsberg anogovera mashoko akakodzera zvikuru aFriedrich Nietzsche: “Kupenga muvanhu chimwe chinhu chisingawanzowaniki; asi mumapoka, mapato, marudzi, uye nhambo, ndiwo mutemo.”

Ikozvino, mamwe matekinoroji emitemo yezvombo zvenyukireya zveU.SA uye vamwe vamiriri vekutonga kwezvombo vakavharirwa mumakakatanwa akapisa pamusoro peramangwana reICBMs: mabhomba anokandwa. Iko kukakavara pakati peiyo "chengetedzo yenyika" kugadzwa - kugehena-yakanangana ne "mazuvano" ICBMs - uye vakasiyana-siyana vanotsoropodza nuclear-policy, vanosarudza kuchengeta maICBM aripo. Mativi ese ari maviri ari kuramba kubvuma kukosha kukuru kwekuabvisa zvachose.

Kubviswa kweICBMs kwaizodaro kuderedza zvakanyanya mikana yokuparadza kukuru kwenyukireya munyika yose. Iwo maICBM akasarudzika panjodzi yekurwiswa kunoshanda, uye nekudaro haana kukosha kwekudzivisa. Panzvimbo pekuve "chidziviriro," maICBMs madhadha anogara pasi, uye nechikonzero ichocho anogadzirirwa "kutangisa payambiro."

Nekuda kweizvozvo, kunyangwe chirevo chezvombo zvinokandwa chiri chokwadi kana alarm yenhema, mukuru wemauto aifanira kukurumidza kusarudza "kushandisa kana kurasikirwa" maICBM. “Kana masensor edu achiratidza kuti zvombo zvinokandwa nevavengi zviri munzira kuenda kuUnited States, mutungamiri wenyika anofanira kufunga nezvekukanda maICBM asati aparadzwa nevavengi; kana zvangotangwa, hazvichayeukwe," aimbova Munyori weDziviriro William Perry akanyora. "Mutungamiri angave aine asingasviki maminetsi makumi matatu ekuita sarudzo yakaipa."

Nyanzvi dzakaita saPerry dzakajeka sezvadzinoita tsigira kuti ICBM iraswe. Asi mauto eICBM imombe inoera yemari. Uye mishumo yenhau parizvino inoratidza kukakavara pamusoro pekuti tingaramba sei tichiidyisa.

Svondo rapfuura, The Guardian Zvinonzi kuti Pentagon yakaraira ongororo yekunze yesarudzo dzeICBMs. Dambudziko nderekuti, sarudzo mbiri dziri kutariswa - kuwedzera hupenyu hwemitsipa yeMinuteman III yakatumirwa parizvino kana kuitsiva neiyo missile system - usaite chero chinhu kuderedza ngozi dziri kuwedzera dzehondo yenyukireya, nepo kubvisa maICBM erudzi kungaderedza zvakanyanya njodzi idzodzo.

Asi yakakura ICBM yekukurudzira michina inoramba iri mugiya repamusoro, paine purofiti yakakura yemakambani iri munjodzi. Northrop Grumman yakapa chibvumirano chemadhora mabhiriyoni gumi nemazana matatu emadhora kuti ienderere mberi nekugadzira hurongwa hutsva hweICBM, ichidanwa zvisirizvo kuti Ground Based Strategic Deterrent. Zvese zviri muchibvumirano nekuzvipira kwezvematongerwo enyika kune maICBM muCongress uye bazi repamusoro.

Zvikamu zvegungwa uye zvemhepo zve "nuclear triad" (zvikepe zvepasi pemvura nemabhomba) hazvigoneke kurwisa kunobudirira - kusiyana neICBMs, idzo dziri panjodzi zvachose. Iwo ma subs nemabhomba, anokwanisa kuparadza chero uye nyika dzese dzakanangwa kakawanda, zvinopa "zvinodzivirira" zvakanyanya kupfuura zvingambodiwa nemunhu wese.

Mukupesana kwakasimba, maICBMs anopesana neanodzivisa. Muchokwadi, ivo ndivo vanonyanya kutariswa kurova kwenyukireya kwekutanga nekuda kwekusagadzikana kwavo, uye nechikonzero chimwe chete vangave vasina "kudzivisa" kugona kutsiva. ICBMs ine basa rimwechete rinoonekwa - kuve "sponge" kutora kutanga kwehondo yenyukireya.

Armed and on chenjedzo yekusimudza bvudzi, mazana mana eICBMs emunyika akadzika midzi - kwete chete mumatura epasi pevhu. akapararira mumatunhu mashanu, asiwo mupfungwa dzesangano rezvematongerwo enyika reUS. Kana chinangwa chiri chekuwana mipiro mikuru yemushandirapamwe kubva kune makondirakiti emauto, wedzera purofiti yemauto-maindasitiri, uye kugara mukuwirirana nemaonero anotonga vezvenhau vemakambani, iwo mafungiro ane musoro. Kana chinangwa chiri chekudzivirira hondo yenyukireya, pfungwa hadzina kudzoreka.

Sezvo Ellsberg neni takanyora mune chinyorwa kuNyika kudonha uku, "Kubatwa mumakakatanwa pamusoro penzira yakachipa yekuchengetedza maICBM achishanda mumasilo avo hakuhwini. Nhoroondo yezvombo zvenyukireya munyika ino inotiudza kuti vanhu havazobhadhara mari kana vachitenda kuti kushandisa mari kuchaita kuti ivo nevavanoda vachengetedzeke - tinofanira kuvaratidza kuti maICBM anoita zvakasiyana. " Kunyangwe Russia neChina dzikasadzoreredza zvachose, mhedzisiro yekuvharwa kweUS kwese maICBMs ayo angave ari kuderedza zvakanyanya mikana yehondo yenyukireya.

PaCapitol Hill, zvinhu zvakadaro hazvina kujeka uye padivi peiyo poindi zvichienzaniswa neakatwasuka-mberi mugero kuona uye kukurumidza kwehuchenjeri hwakajairika. Kunhengo dzeCongress, kugara uchivhota kuti utore mabhiriyoni emadhora kuzvombo zvenyukireya kunoratidzika kunge kwakasikwa. Zvakaoma kufungidzira fungidziro nezve ICBMs ichave yakakosha kukanganisa kufora kuenda kuapocalypse yenyukireya.
