"Iyo F-35 Mheni II Chirongwa (inozivikanwawo seJoint Strike Fighter Program) inzvimbo yeDhipatimendi reDziviriro yekutsanangura zvinokwanisika kutenga chizvarwa chinotevera kurwisa zvombo zvemauto eNavy, Air Force, Marines, uye vatinodyidzana navo. Iyo F-35 ichaunza matekinoroji epamberi kunzvimbo yehondo yeramangwana. "
Kuvanda kuseri kweiyi perky diki PR blurb, kubva kune F-35's pachayo Website, inzvimbo umo mweya wevanhu wakanyangarika.
Uku ndiko kuziva kwehondo: kuvharirwa munzvimbo, kuzere nemari. Iyo F-35 yakakanganisika, iyo inodhura zvakanyanya zvombo zvehondo munhoroondo, inofungidzirwa kuti inodarika $ 1 trillion, asi hazvina mhosva: "Ichaunza tekinoroji yepamberi munzvimbo yehondo yeramangwana."
Zvinorevei izvo? Zvinoita senge ad yeinotevera Star kudii bhaisikopo, asi igwara rekunze reUS - kana, zvakanyatsojeka, fungidziro yerudzi: Tichagara tichirwa nemumwe munhu. Ndiwo quintessential kuzvizadzisa chiporofita. Patinoshandisa mabhiriyoni emadhora "kugadzirira" hondo, naMwari, tichawana muvengi.
Uku ndiko kuziva kwatinofanira kudarika, uye kupikisa nzira yaLockheed Martin-yepamusoro-bhajeti, zvachose-isingakodzeri-yekuchengetedzwa kwenyika-F-35 ndege yekurwira, iyo inofanirwa kunge yakagadzirira kuenda panosvika 2019, inzvimbo yakanaka. kutanga.
"F-35 chombo chehondo inogumbura, isingashande chinangwa chekudzivirira," inoverenga chikumbiro ikozvino iri kutenderera, yakatangwa nemasangano gumi nemaviri. "Zvakarongwa kudhura US $ 1.4 trillion mumakore makumi mashanu. Nemhaka yokuti nzara pasi pano inogona kupedzwa nokuda kwemabhiriyoni makumi matatu emadhora uye kushayikwa kwemvura yokunwa yakachena nokuda kwemabhiriyoni gumi nerimwe emadhora pagore, kutanga nokupambadzwa kwezviwanikwa uko ndege iyi ichauraya. . . .
“Hondo dziri kuisa mungozi United States nevamwe vatori vechikamu pane kuvadzivirira. Zvishandiso zvisina mhirizhonga zvemutemo, dhipatimendi, rubatsiro, kudzivirira dambudziko, uye zvombo zvenyukireya zvinogoneka zvinofanirwa kutsiviwa nekuenderera mberi kwehondo dzinopesana. Naizvozvo, isu sevakasaina chechikumbiro ichi, tinoda kuti chirongwa cheF-35 chibviswe pakarepo, uye kukanzurwa kwezvirongwa zvekumisa chero majeti ane ngozi akadai ane ruzha pedyo nenzvimbo dzinogara vanhu.”
Pakupera kwenhamo iyi, maF-35, ayo achange ari muBurlington, Vermont, neFairbanks, Alaska, ane ngozi zvekuti anogona kuita kuti nzvimbo dzekugara dziri pedyo dzisagarike. Ruzha rwakanyanyisa runogona kukonzera kusaziva zvakanaka kwevana, maererano nemushumo weWorld Health Organization; uye njodzi huru yendege yokuputsika, yakasanganiswa nezvinhu zvine chepfu yakashandiswa pakuvaka kwadzo, zvinoisa vagari vomunzvimbomo panjodzi isingagamuchirwi.
Asi upenzi hwokuisa vanhu pangozi dzakadaro hunowedzerwa zvikuru nokusakosha kwokuita kudaro.
Roots Action, rimwe remasangano ari kudaidzira kuti F-35 ibviswe, rinotsanangura ndege yehondo se“chombo chekutanga chekuba chakagadzirirwa kupinda mumhepo chisingaonekwe. Ichashandiswa kuuraya kukuru nekuparadza muhondo dzakawanda seIraq, Libya, Yemen, Syria, neVietnam umo mamirioni evagari vakaurayiwa nekukuvadzwa uye mamirioni evapoteri akagadzirwa. "
Zvakadaro hondo idzi hadzina kufambisira mberi chero zvine musoro hurongwa. Havana kuita kuti America ive yakachengeteka, ndoda "huru." Kusimbisa iyi poindi, iyo Roots Action saiti inocheka kune CIA director John Brennan, vachipupura pamberi peU.S. Senate Intelligence Committee June apfuura:
"Zvinosuruvarisa," Brennan anoudza komiti iyi, "zvisinei nekufambira mberi kwataita ISIL munhandare yehondo uye mune zvemari, kuedza kwedu hakuna kuderedza kugona kweboka rehugandanga uye kusvika pasi rose."

Ngatigarei takanyarara nemashoko aya kwechinguva.
Mukunyarara, izwi rekuti "nei" rinobuda nesimba guru, simba rakawanda, pamwe, kupfuura zvatingagona kutakura, kana munhu atanga kuwedzera mutengo wekuedza kwedu kusashanda. Nei zvombo zvehondo zviri izvo chete maturusi atinosarudza kushandisa - izvo chete zvishandiso zvatingafungidzira tichishandisa - kurwisa kutyisidzira kwatinodaidza kuti hugandanga? Nei masangano ane mabhiriyoni emadhora ehurumende akavharirwa pamwero usina kusimba wekuziva - kuziva hondo - zvekuti hapana chaanokwanisa kufungidzira kunze kwekuparadza kumwe kuparadza kuti "tichengete takachengeteka," apo zvese nezvechiitiko ichi zvinotinetesa. , inotiisa pangozi, inoita kuti tisanyanya kuchengeteka?
Zvakadini kana tikatanga kurwisa ugandanga? Kureva kuti, ko kana takatanga kuziva izvozvo kunzwisisa muvengi ndiye akakosha, uku tichifunga kuti tinogona kuparadza zvatinotya iko kunyepedzera kwehumwe hukuru?
Chimbofunga izvi: “Bazi rezvekudzivirirwa kwenyika riri kugadzira jet dzehondo dzinobhururuka dzichienda kuhondo dziri pedyo nendege dzine vanhu,” New York Times yakashuma muna October. “Yakaedza zvombo zvinokandwa zvinogona kusarudza zvokurwisa, uye yakavaka ngarava dzinogona kuvhima ngarava dzepasi pemvura dzevavengi, ichinyangira yainowana kwezviuru zvemakiromita, pasina rubatsiro runobva kuvanhu. . . .
