Kangangeeveki ezintathu, uMongameli uBiden udlale indima ephambili ekuxhaseni ulwaphulo-mthetho lwemfazwe yakwa-Israyeli ngelixa ezibeka njengommeli onovelwano wokuzibamba. Olo hanahaniso bubuvuvu obubulalayo njengoko i-Israel iqhubeka nokubulawa kwabantu abaninzi eGaza.

Imigangatho efanayo ebalulekileyo eyagweba ngokupheleleyo ukubulawa kukaHamas kwabemi base-Israel ngo-Oct. 7 kufuneka isebenze ekubulaweni okuqhubekayo kwe-Israel esele ithathe ubomi ubuncinane. amaxesha amaninzi kangangoko Abemi basePalestina. Kwaye uSirayeli usaqala nje.

"Sifuna ukupheliswa kwangoko," iCongresswoman Rashida Tlaib wabhala kwi-imeyile ngoMgqibelo ngokuhlwa, "kodwa i-White House kunye neCongress ziyaqhubeka nokuxhasa ngokungaguqukiyo izenzo zikarhulumente wase-Israeli."

Loo nkxaso ingenamiqathango yenza iBiden kunye noninzi lweCongress lubandakanyeke ngokuthe ngqo ekubulaweni kwabantu abaninzi kunye uhlanga, ichazwe “njengokubulala ngabom inani elikhulu labantu besizwe okanye uhlanga oluthile ngenjongo yokutshabalalisa eso sizwe okanye elo qela.” Le ngcaciso iwafanela kakuhle amazwi nezenzo zeenkokeli zakwaSirayeli.

"I-Israel iwise malunga neetoni ezili-12,000 zeziqhushumbisi eGaza ukuza kuthi ga ngoku kwaye kuxelwe ukuba ibulele abaphathi abakhulu beHamas, kodwa uninzi lwabantu abenzakeleyo ibingabafazi nabantwana," iphephancwadi iTime. shwa nkathelwe ekupheleni kweveki ephelileyo. Umkhosi wakwa-Israyeli ububulala ngokungenazintloni abantu kumakhaya, iivenkile, iimarike, iimosque, iinkampu zeembacu kunye neendawo zempilo. Khawufane ucinge into enokulindelwa ngoku ukuba unxibelelwano phakathi kweGaza kunye nehlabathi langaphandle luncinci kakhulu.

Kwiintatheli, ukuba phantsi eGaza kuyingozi kakhulu; Uhlaselo lukaSirayeli sele lubulele iintatheli ezingama-29. Kurhulumente wase-Israel, iintatheli ezimbalwa ezihlala eGaza zingcono; ukuthembela kwemithombo yeendaba kwi-handouts yase-Israel, iinkomfa zeendaba kunye nodliwano-ndlebe kufanelekile.

Izakhelo zePro-Israel zereferensi kunye ukhetho lwamagama zixhaphakile kumajelo eendaba ase-US. Nangona kunjalo ingxelo ethile ekhethekileyo ikhanyise ngenkohlakalo engenalusini yezenzo zika-Israyeli eGaza, apho abantu abazizigidi ezi-2.2 bahlala khona.

Ngokomzekelo, ngo-Oct. 28, i-PBS News Weekend yanikezela ngetshekhi yokwenyani yomntu njengoko u-Israyeli waqala ukuhlaselwa komhlaba ngelixa enyusa ibhomu eGaza. "Njengoko umsebenzi wase-Israel usanda apho, ngequbuliso ifowuni kunye ne-intanethi yaphuma," umnxibelelanisi uLeila Molana-Allen. umbiko. “Ngoko ke, abantu baseGaza, bengenalizwi ubusuku bonke njengoko babephantsi kwezi ziqhushumbisi ziqatha. Abantu abazange bakwazi ukubiza ii-ambulensi, kwaye siye sava ngale ntsasa ukuba abaqhubi be-ambulensi babemi kwiindawo eziphakamileyo kuyo yonke indawo, bezama ukubona apho kuqhume khona, ngoko banokuqhuba ngqo apho. Abantu abakwazi ukunxibelelana neentsapho zabo ukuze babone ukuba balungile na. Abantu ngale ntsasa besithi ‘besikhupha abantwana kobo bugoxo ngezandla zethu kuba asikwazi ukubiza uncedo.’”

Ngoxa abantu baseGaza “bephantsi kwezona qhushumbo ziqatha sakha sazibona,” wongezelela uMolana-Allen, abanayo indawo ekhuselekileyo yokuya: “Nangona kusithiwa mabafudukele emazantsi, enyanisweni. inkoliso yabantu ayikwazi ukuya emazantsi ngenxa yokuba ingenawo amafutha eenqwelo, ayikwazi ukuhamba, kwaye nakumazantsi ibhombu iyaqhubeka.”

Ngeli xesha, uBiden uqhubekile nokuvakalisa esidlangalaleni inkxaso yakhe engagungqiyo kwinto eyenziwa nguSirayeli. Emva kokuba ethethe neNkulumbuso yase-Israel uBenjamin Netanyahu kwiveki ephelileyo, i-White House ikhuphe a mazwi ngaphandle kokukhankanywa nakancinci kwenkxalabo malunga nokuba ukuqhushumbiswa kwebhombu kukaSirayeli kwakusenziwa ngabemi. Endaweni yoko, ingxelo yathi, "uMongameli uphinde wathi u-Israyeli unalo lonke ilungelo kunye noxanduva lokukhusela abemi bakhe kubunqolobi kwaye akwenze oko ngendlela ehambelana nomthetho wamazwe ngamazwe."

Inkxaso kaBiden yokuqhubeka nokubulawa kwabantu eGaza ihambelana neCongress. Njengoko i-Israel yayiqala iveki yesine yokugrogrisa nokubulala, yayingamalungu ali-18 kuphela eNdlu awayekuluhlu lwe abenzi bomthetho baxhasa i-H.Res. 786, "Ukucela ukuthotywa ngokukhawuleza kunye nokupheliswa komlilo kwaSirayeli kunye nePalestina." Bonke abo baxhasi be-18 ngabantu bemibala.

Ngelixa u-Israyeli ebulala inani elikhulu labemi basePalestine yonke imihla-kwaye ngokucacileyo unenjongo yokubulala amawaka amaninzi ngakumbi-sibona iimaski "eziqhubekayo" ziwa kumalungu amaninzi eCongress ahlala enomkhenkce ngokuhambelana nezopolitiko.

Imbongi uTheodore Roethke yabhala yathi: “Ngexesha lobumnyama, iliso liqalisa ukubona.”
