Ita kuti kushanda muhondo kuve sarudzo, kwete kurongeka

Josef Beno vaisada kuenda kuhondo. MuCzech, akanga asingadi kuuraya vamwe vake vaSlav, vaRussia. Baba, vaisada kusiya mhuri yavo yaiziya nenzara isina kudzivirirwa.

Asi gore rakanga riri 1915 uye Austria-Hungary yakanga ichiunganidza varume navakomana kuti vashande muhondo. Vairamba vakapfurwa. Pashure pokuvanda kwegore, Josef akabatwa nokuda kwokupinda muchiuto. Akapukunyuka, ndokuzongobatwa bedzi navaRussia ndokufora kuSiberia.

Sezvo nyaya yacho ichienda, mauto akagamuchira majekiseni netsono kuti aite hasha. Zvichida yaingova ngano yaitsanangura hasha dzakachinja dzababa, nokuti paakadzokera kumba, Josef akashungurudza mudzimai wake nevana, kusanganisira mwanasikana wavo, ambuya vangu.

Saka vakadzi vakawana kodzero dzakaenzana dzekushanda muhondo. Vakuru vakuru vemauto neMarine Corps kutanga kwegore rino vakaudza Congress kuti vakadzi vanofanirwa kunyoresa kunyorwa, uye bhiri rekuita izvi richazeyewa mwedzi uno. Asi maruramiro akaenzana anoreva maruramiro kurusununguko rukuru rwokuda, kwete kushoma. Uye nepo munhu achigona kunyorera chinzvimbo chekuramba kupinda muchiuto, izvi zvinosiya magumo ake nemutongi.

Iko zvino varume ndivo vanofanira kuwana kodzero dzakaenzana nevakadzi, kusunungurwa kubva pakunyoresa, uye kupinda muhondo chete nechisarudzo. Basa rechiuto harifaniri kupfekwa sebasa rinoyera kana mutemo usina hanya ukatipinza muhondo.

Pakatsanangurwa kunyoreswa kusati kwasvika 1812 US kupinda muCanada, Rep akatsamwa. Daniel Webster akapikisa kuti: “Papi pakanyorwa muBumbiro reMitemo . . .

Tine hanya nevanakomana vedu zvechokwadi here? Zvakaoma zvakakwana kuti vakomana vatsungirire uduku husina kuenzana nedzidzo yakanyanyisa. Vashandi vepachikoro vanogona kuve vanoshamisa uye vadzidzi vanogona kuve nechinangwa, asi kuwandisa mune zvedzidzo kunogona kubvisa chishuwo chemunhu chekumboverenga kana kunyora zvakare sezvo ichidzvanyirira zvidikanwi zvebiology nezvemweya zvekufamba, kufamba, kutamba, kutaurirana, pfungwa dzemahara, kurara, uye mweya mutsva. Uye ipapo, pamakore 18, kupa rusununguko rwokupedzisira, kodzero yokurarama nokurega kurarama, sezvakataurwa naWebster, unyengeri huri pachena munyika inonzi yakasununguka.

Kana "pasina mutero pasina chinomiririra" yakakurudzira maAmerican revolutionists, nei vanhu vekuAmerica vachibvuma kubhadhariswa mutero uye vanogona kunyorerwa hondo dzatisina kuvhota, pasina kunzwa, pasina nhaurirano yeCongress? Chii chaiva chinangwa chechikoro? Kutibatsira kutora chikamu zvine mufungo mudemokrasi? Kana kuti kunyaradza pfungwa dzedu uye kutiita kuti tizviise pasi? Kuumba chiverengero chavagari vapasi chakadzvinyirirwa chishuvo chokupa mhaka kuvhiringidzika pavatorwa?

Kana varume vakasanyoresa, havakodzere kukwereta koreji yemubatanidzwa, mabasa emubatanidzwa, uye rezinesi rekutyaira reNew York. Sezvinongoita kukara kweudyire kwezviwanikwa kuchigona kutungamira hurongwa hwedu hwekunze, udyire husina nyadzi hunosimudzirwa nemaitiro emukati anonyengedza varume kuti vabvume kuuraya kuti vawane mibairo yemari uye mabasa anobvira.

Sezvineiwo, vanotsigira dhizaini vanoti kunyoreswa kwechiuto kuvaka hunhu; havaoni chinhu chine udyire pamusoro pekuuraya senzira yekuvaka hunhu. Havaoni kuti isu tose tiri kuvaka hunhu nedzimwe nzira.

mutungamiriri wenyika George W. Bush akamboti, “Ndinodavira kuti kune mufananidzo weAmerica kunze uko wokuti tinodisa kwazvo pfuma, zvokuti tinotoda kuzvigutsa, kuti hatina miitiro, uye kuti kana takamira, hatingazvirwiri.”

Asi kuda kuuraya uye kuurayiwa hachisi chiratidzo chine hutano, chisiri chehedonist chetsika, uye nyota yemufaro usina kudzika haifambisi bato rinopesana nehondo.

mutungamiriri wenyika Gerald Ford akabvisa kunyoreswa kwemauto muna 1973, asi Mutungamiriri Jimmy Carter yakamutsidzira muna 1980 munguva yehondo yevagari vemuAfghanistan umo maSoviet-backed Marxists vakarwa neUS-backed fundamentalist mujahideen. Kutya, kusaziva, makaro, “upenzi nouipi” zvakaita kuti vagadziri vemitemo veUnited States vashandise kurwisana kwomukati kwevatorwa kuti vatevere mutambo wavo vamene wokukwikwidzana kwemasimba makuru nokuda kwepfuma nesimba. Kunyangwe kuedza kwekunze kubatsira vashandi nevarombo kwakanzi "komunisiti" neUS uye kwakaparadzwa.

Makumi emakore egakava risina kuziviswa aivepo muhurumende pamusoro pemitemo yeCold War iyo vakawanda vanocherechedza nhasi semafungiro maduku. Asi nei varume vekuUS vachifanira kuramba vachibhadhara mutengo uye kushanda senzira yekuchengetedza yekutadza kwevagadziri vemitemo vekune dzimwe nyika veUS?

Segamba riri kunetseka kutiza njodzi uye kubata rimwe bazi rakaoma-kusvika - ndiko kusimba kunofanirwa kuitwa nehurumende kutsvaga kugadzirisa kusawirirana kusina mhirizhonga. Pane kudaro, hurumende inonzvenga mabasa ayo uye inogara pairi zano remauto rekutevera.

Kukanganisa kweUS kunokonzeresa hondo kunosanganisira kuramba kutaurirana kunze kwekunge vavengi vateerera mamiriro eUS, nhaurirano yehutongi hwedivi rimwe, kufuratira maonero evanopikisa, kuderedza kutya kwavo, kufuratira mafambiro echivanhu asiri echisimba, kutora mativi mumhirizhonga yevamwe, kutumira zvombo, uye achinyandura kukakavara muchivande.

Mubvunzo uri pachena: Mauto eUS anofanirwa kudiwa kurwisa hondo dzinokonzereswa nekutadza kwevagadziri vemitemo yeUS uye kuwedzeredzwa nerudzi rusingamiriri rwevaAmerica vane masimba vanokoshesa hupfumi nekutonga? Kana kuti uku kushungurudzwa kwemauto kusiri pamutemo?

Nekuzorodza kunze kwe Green Party kandidheti Jill Stein, vamiriri vemutungamiri wenyika nhasi vanotsigira nzira yekuuraya. Asi pachinzvimbo chekubayira hupenyu mune imwe tsika yekare paatari yePasi, havagone here vamiriri kupa nguva yekuverenga mabhuku ezvekunze maonero? Mapato eDemocratic and Republican haakwanise here kutevera kutungamira kweGreen Party uye kupa kuvimbika kune vanopa hondo, vane hupfumi?

Nepo vamwe vachitenda musimba rechibayiro cheropa kugadzirisa matambudziko, zvingave zvakanyanya kushanda kuti vatungamiriri veUS vape nguva uye ego kukudziridza hunyanzvi hwekutaurirana, kupira muropa nekutumira zvombo, uye kupira izvo zvibodzwa zvepecuniary zvinangwa zvakavanda kuseri kwezvinangwa zvehondo. .

Hurumende yakanga isina kodzero yekumanikidza Josef Beno kurwa makore zana apfuura, uye haina kodzero zvachose yekuda kuti vanakomana vedu vanyorese uye vagadzirire chibayiro cheropa nhasi. Hapana ane kodzero yesimba rakadaro pamusoro pechimwe chisikwa. Saka ngatipfuurei kupfuura chibayiro cheropa uye tiite zvibayiro zvinoshanda zvinogadzirisa zvechokwadi kusawirirana.
