Matauriro muSeattle munaGunyana 24, 2022 pa https://abolishnuclearweapons.org

Ndiri kurwara uye ndaneta nehondo. Ndakagadzirira rugare. Ko iwe?

Ndafara kuzvinzwa. Asi zvakanaka munhu wese ndewerunyararo, kunyangwe vanhu vanofunga nzira yechokwadi yerunyararo kuburikidza nehondo dzakawanda. Ivo vane danda rerunyararo muPentagon, shure kwezvose. Ndine chokwadi chekuti vanoifuratira kupfuura kuinamata, kunyangwe ivo vachiita zvibayiro zvevanhu zvakawanda nekuda kwechikonzero.

Pandinobvunza kamuri revanhu munyika ino kana vachifunga kuti chero rutivi rwehondo chero ipi zvayo inogona kururamiswa kana kuti yakambopembedzwa, nguva dze99 kubva mu100 ndinokurumidza kunzwa kushevedzera kwe "Hondo Yenyika II" kana "Hitler" kana "Holocaust. ”

Iye zvino ndiri kuzoita chimwe chinhu chandisingawanzo kuita uye ndinokurudzira kuti utarise bhaisikopo rakareba reKen Burns paPBS, iro idzva kuUS uye Holocaust. Ndinoreva kunze kwekunge iwe uri mumwe weaya asinganzwisisike dinosaurs seni anoverenga mabhuku. Pane mumwe wenyu anoverenga mabhuku here?

Zvakanaka, imi mose: tarisai iyi firimu, nokuti inobvisa nhamba yekutanga chikonzero vanhu vanopa kutsigira nhamba yekutanga hondo yapfuura yavanotsigira, iyo ndiyo nhamba yekutanga propaganda nheyo yekutsigira hondo itsva nezvombo.

Ndinotarisira kuti vaverengi vebhuku vanotoziva izvi, asi kuponesa vanhu kubva kumisasa yerufu kwaisava chikamu cheWWII. Muchokwadi, kudiwa kwekutarisa kurwa hondo yaive chikonzero chepamusoro cheveruzhinji chekusanunura vanhu. Chikonzero chikuru chakavanzika chaiva chokuti hapana imwe yenyika dzepasi inoda vapoteri. Iyi firimu inovhara gakava rekupenga rakaenderera mberi pamusoro pekuti vangabhomba misasa yerufu kuti vaponeswe. Asi hazvikuudze kuti vanorwira runyararo vaikurudzira hurumende dzekuMadokero kuti dzitaurirane nezve rusununguko rwevanoitirwa misasa. Nhaurirano dzakaitwa zvinobudirira neNazi Germany pamusoro pevasungwa vehondo, sezvakangoita nhaurirano dzakaitwa zvinobudirira neRussia pamusoro pekuchinjana kwevasungwa uye kutengesa zviyo muUkraine. Dambudziko rakanga risiri rekuti Germany yaisazosunungura vanhu - yanga ichidaidzira kuti mumwe munhu avatore kwemakore. Dambudziko raive rekuti hurumende yeUS yaisada kusunungura mamirioni avanhu yainoona sekukanganisa kukuru. Uye dambudziko riripo nderekuti hurumende yeUS haidi runyararo muUkraine.

Ndinovimba kuti US ichabvuma kutiza maRussia uye kuvaziva uye kuvafarira kuitira kuti tishande pamwe navo US isati yasvika padanho rekutanga gwaro.

Asi kunyangwe vashoma vekutaura muUnited States vaida kubatsira vakawirwa neNazism, nemamwe matanho atinayo muUS ruzhinji rwakanyarara vanoda kugumisa kuurayiwa muUkraine. Asi hatisi tose takanyarara nguva dzose!

A chisarudzo by Data for Progress yeWashington Ninth Congressional District mukutanga kwaNyamavhuvhu vakawana kuti 53% yevavhoti vakati vaizotsigira United States ichiita nhaurirano dzekupedza hondo muUkraine nekukurumidza, kunyangwe zvaireva kuita zvibvumirano neRussia. Chimwe chezvikonzero zvakawanda zvandinotenda kuti nhamba iyi inogona kukwira, kana isati yatove, ndeyekuti muvhoti imwecheteyo 78% yevavhoti vainetsekana nekukonana kuri kuenda kwenyukireya. Ndinofungidzira kuti 25% kana kupfuura avo vanoita sevari kunetseka nezvehondo ichaenda yenyukireya asi vanotenda kuti iwoyo mutengo wakakodzera kubhadhara kudzivirira chero nhaurirano yerunyararo inoshaya kunzwisisa kwakazara kwehondo yenyukireya chii.

Ini ndinofunga isu tinofanirwa kuenderera mberi nekuyedza nzira dzese dzekuita kuti vanhu vazive nezvetsaona dzepedyo-kupotsa uye kunetsana, nezvekuti hazvigoneke zvakanyanya kuti bhomba renyukireya riziswe kwete kuwanda mumativi maviri. , kuti rudzi rwebhomba rakaparadza Nagasaki iye zvino rangova detonator yemhando yebhomba rakakura zvikuru iro vanoronga hondo yenyukireya vanodana kuti idiki uye rinoshandiswa, uye kuti kunyange hondo yenyukireya shoma yaizogadzira sei kuuraya zvirimwa zvenyukireya munguva yechando inogona kubva. vapenyu vanogodora vakafa.

Ndinonzwisisa kuti vamwe vanhu mukati uye nezveRichland, Washington, vari kuyedza kushandura mamwe mazita ezvinhu uye kazhinji kudzosera kumashure kukudzwa kwekuburitsa plutonium yakauraya vanhu veNagasaki. Ndinofunga kuti tinofanira kurumbidza kuedza kubvisa kupembererwa kwechiito chekuparadza rudzi.

The New York Times ichangopfuura akanyora pamusoro Richland asi zvakanyanya kudzivirira mubvunzo wakakosha. Dai chaive chokwadi kuti kubhomba Nagasaki chaiko kwakaponesa hupenyu hwakawanda kupfuura zvayaidhura, saka zvingangove zvakanaka kuti Richland iratidze ruremekedzo kune hupenyu hwakatorwa, asi zvingave zvakakoshawo kupemberera kuita kwakaoma kudaro.

Asi kana chiri chechokwadi, seizvo maidi anoratidzika kuva anosimbisa zvakajeka, kuti mabhomba enyukireya haana kuponesa upenyu hunopfuura 200,000 XNUMX, haana chaizvoizvo kuponesa upenyu hupi nohupi, ipapo kuvapemberera kwakashata. Uye, nedzimwe nyanzvi dzichitenda kuti njodzi yenyukireya apocalypse haina kumbobvira yakakura kupfuura zvayakaita izvozvi, zvine basa kuti isu tiwane izvi zvakanaka.

Bhomba reNagasaki rakasimudzwa kubva Nyamavhuvhu 11 kusvika Nyamavhuvhu 9 1945 kuderedza mukana weJapan kuzvipira bhomba risati radonhedzwa. Saka, chero chaunofunga nezve nuking rimwe guta (apo vazhinji vesaenzi yenyukireya vaida kuratidzira pane imwe nzvimbo isingagarwi panzvimbo), zvakaoma kugadzirisa chikonzero chekunyura guta rechipiri. Uye chaizvoizvo pakanga pasina chikonzero chokuparadza chokutanga.

United States Strategic Bombing Survey, yakagadzwa nehurumende yeUS, akagumisa kuti, “Zvirokwazvo pamberi pa31 Zvita, 1945, uye zvingangoitika kuti pamberi pa1 Mbudzi, 1945, Japan ingadai yakakanda mapfumo pasi kunyange dai mabhomba eatomu akanga asina kudonhedzwa, kunyange dai Russia yakanga isina kupinda muhondo, uye kunyange dai pakanga pasina kupinda muhondo. zvakarongwa kana kufungwa.”

Mumwe aipikisa akanga ataura maonero mamwe chete aya kuMunyori weHondo uye, nenhoroondo yake, kuMutungamiri Truman, mabhomba asati aitika aiva General Dwight Eisenhower. Mukuru Douglas MacArthur, pamberi pokubhombwa kweHiroshima, akazivisa kuti Japan yakanga yatorohwa. Sachigaro weJoint Chiefs of Staff Admiral William D. Leahy akataura nehasha muna 1949, “Kushandiswa kwechombo ichi chine utsinye paHiroshima neNagasaki hakuna rubatsiro rwenyama muhondo yedu neJapan. VaJapan vakanga vatokundwa uye vakagadzirira kukanda mapfumo pasi.”

Mutungamiri Truman akaruramisa kubhomba kweHiroshima, kwete sekumhanyisa kupera kwehondo, asi sekutsiva mhosva dzeJapan. Kwemavhiki, Japan yakanga ichida kukanda mapfumo pasi kana yaigona kuchengeta mambo wayo. United States yakaramba izvozvo kusvikira mabhomba adonha. Saka, chido chekudonhedza mabhomba chingave charebesa hondo.

Isu tinofanirwa kuve pachena kuti kutaura kwekuti mabhomba akaponesa hupenyu pakutanga kwaiita zvine musoro kupfuura zvazvinoita, nekuti yaive yehupenyu hwevachena. Iye zvino munhu wese anonyara kusanganisa icho chikamu chekudaidzira, asi anoenderera mberi nekutaura kwekutanga zvakadaro, kunyangwe kuuraya vanhu mazana maviri muhondo inogona kupera kana ukangoipedza pamwe ndicho chinhu chakanyanya kufungidzira kubva pakuponesa hupenyu.

Zvinoita sekuti zvikoro, pachinzvimbo chekushandisa makore ehowa kuti logos, zvitarise kuita basa riri nani rekudzidzisa nhoroondo.

Ndinoreva zvikoro zvose. Nei tichitenda kuti Hondo Yemashoko ichapera? Ndiani akatidzidzisa izvozvo?

Iko kunofungidzirwa kupera kweCold War hakuna kumbobata kana Russia kana United States kudzikisa matura ayo enyukireya pasi pezvaizotora kuparadza hupenyu hwese paPasi kakawanda - kwete mukunzwisisa kwesainzi makore makumi matatu apfuura, uye kwete ikozvino isu. kuziva zvakawanda nezvenyukireya yechando.

Hondo Yemashoko yaifungidzirwa kupera yaive nyaya yekutaura kwezvematongerwo enyika uye kutariswa kwenhau. Asi zvombo zvokukandwa hazvina kumboenda. Zvombo hazvina kumbobva pazvombo muUS kana Russia, sekuChina. Kana iyo US kana Russia yakambozvipira kusatanga hondo yenyukireya. Chibvumirano chekuzvipira kweNonproliferation chinoita sechisina kumbobvira chave kuzvipira kwechokwadi muWashington DC. Ndinozeza kana kuitora nekutya kuti mumwe munhu muWashington DC achaziva kuti iripo obvarura. Asi ndichazvitaura zvakadaro. Mapato echibvumirano akazvipira ku:

"Tevedzera nhaurirano nekutenda kwakanaka pamusoro pematanho anoshanda ane chekuita nekumisa nhangemutange yezvombo zvenyukireya panguva yekutanga uye kumisa zvombo zvenyukireya, uye pachibvumirano chekubvisa zvombo zvachose uye pasi pekutonga kwakasimba uye kunoshanda kwenyika."

Ndinoda kuti hurumende yeUS isaine zvibvumirano zvakawanda, zvinosanganisira zvibvumirano nezvibvumirano zvayakaparadza, sechibvumirano cheIran, Intermediate Range Nuclear Forces Treaty, uye Anti-Ballistic Missile Treaty, uye kusanganisira zvibvumirano zvayakaita. haana kumbosaina, seChibvumirano cheKurambidzwa kweNuclear Weapons. Asi hapana chimwe chazvo chakanaka sezvibvumirano zviripo zvatingada kutevedzwa nazvo, seKellogg-Briand Pact inorambidza hondo dzese, kana chibvumirano cheNonproliferation, chinoda kubvisirwa zvombo zvakakwana - zvezvombo zvese. Nei tiine mitemo iyi mumabhuku ari nani zvakanyanya pane zvinhu zvatinorota zvekudzika mutemo zvekuti tinoona zviri nyore kubvuma propaganda dzinoti hadzipo chaizvo, kuti isu titende terevhizheni yedu pane kubuda isu. maziso ekunyepera?

Mhinduro iri nyore. Nekuti kufamba kwerunyararo kwema1920s kwaive kwakasimba kupfuura zvatingafungidzira, uye nekuti anti-hondo uye anti-nuclear movement ye1960s yaive yakanaka darn zvakare. Mafambiro ose aya akagadzirwa nevanhuwo zvavo sesu, kunze kweruzivo rushoma uye ruzivo. Tinogona kuita zvimwe chetezvo uye zviri nani.

Asi isu tinofanirwa kupengera kupenga kwenyukireya. Tinofanira kuita sokunge kuti kanhu kese kerunako uye kunoshamisa paPasi kakatyisidzirwa nekutsakatiswa nekukurumidza nekuda kwekuzvikudza kwehupenzi kwevamwe vevanhu vakapusa vari vapenyu. Isu tiri kubata nekupenga, uye izvo zvinoreva kuti isu tinofanirwa kutsanangura kuti chii chakakanganisika kune avo vanoteerera, tichigadzira kufamba kwezvematongerwo enyika kune avo vanoda kusundidzirwa.

Nei kuri kupenga kuda zvombo zvakakurisa zvakanyanya kutenderedza, kungodzivisa vatorwa vasina njere kubva mukurwiswa kusingaite sekunge Russia yakangotsamwiswa?

(Zvichida imi mose munoziva kuti kutsamwiswa kuita chimwe chinhu hakuregedze kuzviita asi ini ndinofanira kutaura zvakadaro.)

Hezvino zvikonzero gumi zvekuda nukes kupenga:

1. Makore akakwana ngaapfuure uye kuvapo kwezvombo zvenyukireya kuchatiuraya tose netsaona.
2. Rega makore akakwana apfuure uye kuvepo kwezvombo zvenyukireya kuchatiuraya tese kuburikidza nekuita kwemumwe mupengo.
3. Hapana kana chombo chenyukireya chinogona kudzivirira kuti murwi mukuru wezvombo zvisiri zvenyukireya haugone kumisa zvirinani - asi mirira #4.
4. Kusaita zvechisimba kwakaratidza dziviriro yakabudirira kurwisa kupinda uye mabasa pane kushandisa zvombo.
5. Kutyisidzira kushandisa chombo kuti usambochishandisa kunoita kuti pave nenjodzi huru yekusatenda, yekuvhiringika, uye nekuishandisa chaiko.
6. Kushandisa nhamba huru yevanhu kugadzirira kushandisa chombo kunounza simba rekuishandisa, inova chikamu chetsananguro yezvakaitika muna 1945.
7. Hanford, sedzimwe nzvimbo zhinji, yakagara pamarara ayo vamwe vanodaidza kuti yepasi pevhu Chernobyl yakamirira kuitika, uye hapana munhu afunga mhinduro, asi kugadzira tsvina yakawanda kunoonekwa sekusina mubvunzo neavo vari mukubata kwekupenga.
8. Imwe 96% yevanhu haisisina musoro kupfuura 4% muUnited States, asi kwete zvishoma zvakadaro.
9. Kana Hondo Yemashoko inogona kutangwa patsva nekusarudza kuona kuti haina kumbopera, uye kana ichipisa nekukasira, kutadza kushandura zvakanyanya nzira ndiyo tsananguro yekupenga.
10. Vladimir Putin - pamwe naDonald Trump, Bill Clinton, maBush maviri, Richard Nixon, Dwight Eisenhower, naHarry Truman - vakatyisidzira kushandisa zvombo zvenyukireya. Ava ndivo vanhu vanotenda kuchengeta kutyisidzira kwavo kwakanyanya kukosha pane kuchengeta zvivimbiso zvavo. US Congress inotaura pachena kusakwanisa kumisa mutungamiri wenyika. A Washington Post munyori wenhau anoti hapana chekunetseka nazvo nekuti US ine nukes dzakawanda seRussia. Yese yenyika yedu haina kukodzera kubhejera iyo mumwe mambo wenyukireya muUS kana Russia kana kumwe kunhu asingateveri.

Upengo hwakarapwa kakawanda, uye kupenga kwenyukireya kunodawo kudaro. Masangano akagara kwemakore akawanda, uye akanyorwa kuti haadzivisiki, chaiwo, akakosha, uye mamwe mazwi akasiyana-siyana ekupinzwa kunze kwechokwadi kwakafanana, akapedzwa munharaunda dzakasiyana. Izvi zvinosanganisira kudya nyama yevanhu, kubaira kwevanhu, kutongwa nekuomerwa, kukakavadzana kweropa, kukwikwidzana, barika, kurangwa kukuru, huranda, uye chirongwa chaBill O'Reilly's Fox News. Vazhinji vevanhu vanoda kurapa kupenga kwenyukireya zvakanyanya zvekuti vari kugadzira zvibvumirano zvitsva kuzviita. Ruzhinji rwevanhu vakapfuura vaine nukes. South Korea, Taiwan, Sweden, neJapan vakasarudza kusave nemanukes. Ukraine neKazakhstan vakasiya nukes dzavo. Ndizvo zvakaitawo Belarus. South Africa yakasiya nukes yayo. Brazil neArgentina vakasarudza kusave nemanukes. Uye kunyange zvazvo Hondo Yemashoko isina kumbopera, nhano dzinoshamisa dzakadaro dzakaitwa mukubvisa zvombo zvokuti vanhu vaifungidzira kuti yakanga yava kupera. Kuziva kwakadaro kwenhau kwakatangwa makore 40 apfuura zvokuti vanhu vakafungidzira kuti chinetso chacho chinofanira kunge chichigadziriswa. Takaona kupenya kwekuziva ikoko zvakare gore rino.

Hondo muUkraine payakapinda munhau chitubu chapfuura, masayendisiti anochengeta Doomsday Clock anga atove muna 2020 akaswededza ruoko rwechipiri pedyo neapocalyptic pakati pehusiku, achisiya kakamuri kadiki kuti aiswededze padyo gare gare gore rino. Asi chimwe chinhu chakachinja zvinonyatsooneka mutsika dzeUS. Nharaunda iyo, kunyange ichiita zvishoma zvakakosha kunonoka kudonha kwemamiriro ekunze, inonyatsoziva nezveramangwana reapocalyptic, yakaerekana yatanga kutaura zvishoma nezve apocalypse pakukurumidza-mberi ingave hondo yenyukireya. The Seattle Times akatobudisa uyu musoro mukuru unoti “Washington Yakamisa Kuronga Kwehondo Yenyukireya muna 1984. Tinofanira Kutanga Zvino Here?” Kupenga ndinokuudza.

The Seattle Times akakurudzira kudavira bhomba renyukireya roga, uye mumhinduro dzomunhu oga. Pane chikonzero chidiki kwazvo chekufungidzira kuti bhomba renyukireya rimwe chete richaparurwa pasina mabhomba akawanda anoperekedza uye mabhomba akawanda anopindura kamwechete kubva kune rimwe divi. Zvakadaro kutariswa kwakawanda kuri kubhadharwa izvozvi kune maitiro emunhu kana bhomba rimwechete rarova pane zvakanyanya kuitika. Guta reNew York rakaisa chiziviso chebasa reruzhinji chichiudza vagari kuti vapinde mudzimba. Vatsigiri veavo vasina dzimba vanotsamwiswa nekukanganisa kwehondo yenyukireya, kunyangwe hondo yenyukireya chaiyo ichifarira mapete chete, uye nechikamu chidiki chezvatinopedza tichizvigadzirira isu tinogona kupa munhu wese imba. Tanzwa kare nhasi nezvemhinduro yemapiritsi ayodhine.

Mhinduro isiri-yega kune iyi quintessentially mubatanidzwa dambudziko kungave kuronga kumanikidzwa kwekubvisa zvombo - ingave yakabatana kana unilateral. Kuenda unilateral kubva mukupenga chiito chehungwaru. Uye ndinotenda kuti tinogona kuzviita. Vanhu vakaronga chiitiko ichi nhasi vachishandisa abolishnuclearweapons.org vanogona kuronga zvimwe. Shamwari dzedu dzepaGround Zero Center yeNonviolent Action dzinoziva chaizvo zvavari kuita. Kana isu tichida kugadzira hunyanzvi hweveruzhinji kuti meseji yedu isvike, iyo Backbone Campaign kubva kuVashon Island inogona kuzvibata. Kumusoro paWhidbey Island, Whidbey Environmental Action Network nevamwe vavo vachangobva kudzinga mauto mumapaki ehurumende, uye Sound Defense Alliance iri kushanda kuti ndege dzerufu dzinotsemura nzeve dzibve mumatenga.

Nepo isu tichida kuwedzera kushingaira, pane zvakawanda kupfuura zvatinowanzoziva zviri kuitika. PaDefuseNuclearWar.org unowana kuronga kuri kuitika muUnited States yese yezviitiko zvechimbichimbi zvekurwisa nyukliya muna Gumiguru.

Tinogona here kubvisa zvombo zvenyukireya uye kuchengetedza simba renyukireya? Ndinopokana nazvo. Tinogona here kubvisa zvombo zvenyukireya uye kuchengetedza makomo matura ezvombo zvisiri zvenyukireya zvakaiswa pazvigaro zve1,000 mune dzimwe nyika dzevanhu? Ndinopokana nazvo. Asi chatinogona kuita kutora nhanho, uye kuona nhanho imwe neimwe inotevera ichikura nyore, nekuti reverse nhangemutange yezvombo inoita kuti zvidaro, nekuti dzidzo inoita kuti zvidaro, uye nekuti kukurumidza kunoita kuti zvidaro. Kana paine chero chinhu chevezvematongerwo enyika chinoda zvirinani pane kupisa maguta ese chiri kukunda. Kana zvombo zvenyukireya zvikatanga kuhwina zvinogona kutarisira shamwari dzakawanda kuti dzikwire.

Asi pari zvino hapana kana nhengo yeCongress yeUnited States yakanamatira mutsipa wayo kunze kwerunyararo, ndoda caucus kana bato. Kuvhota kushoma kwehuipi kunogara kuine simba rekufunga kwainaro, asi hapana sarudzo pane chero yevhoti inosanganisira kupona kwevanhu - izvo zvinongoreva kuti - sezvakangoita munhoroondo yose - isu tinofanirwa kuita zvinopfuura kuvhota. Chatisingakwanise kuita kubvumira kupenga kwedu kuti kuve hutsinye, kana kuziva kwedu kuve fungidziro, kana kushushikana kwedu kuve shanduko yemutoro. Iri ibasa redu rose, tingave tichida kana kusada. Asi kana tikaita nepatinogona napo, tichishanda munharaunda, tiine chiono chenyika ine runyararo neyenyukireya pamberi pedu, ndinofunga tinogona kungowana chiitiko ichi chinofadza. Kana tikakwanisa kuumba nharaunda dzinotsigira runyararo kwese kwese seyatave tiri mairi mangwanani ano, tinogona kuita runyararo.

Mavhidhiyo kubva kuchiitiko muSeattle anofanira kuoneka chiteshi ichi.
