Esi sihloko so ividiyo entsha nguJames Corbett.

Bahlala beqala ngesiphakamiso esifanelekileyo maxa wambi imfazwe ityala, kwaye usikhokele ukusuka apho wehle ithambeka elimtyibilizi ukuya kwiikhaphethi zebhombu kunye nenkohlakalo ebantwini esiba "khululayo" - ngendleko yemali ephindwe kalishumi kunaleyo ibinokuthatha ukusombulula zonke iingxwabangxwaba zemfazwe , ukwanelisa wonke umntu. Endaweni yokumisela umgca wokuzikhusela kwithambeka elimtyibilizi, mhlawumbi kungcono ukuphelisa ingxoxo yabo kwi-bud: Akuzange kubekho mfazwe ilungileyo.

Abanye bathi iimfazwe zibangelwa ziinkokeli ezimbalwa ezikhohlakeleyo, kwaye abanye bathi hayi, sineemfazwe kuba imfazwe ivelisa inzuzo eninzi kwiibhanki, kwiikontraki zokhuselo nakwiinkampani zeoyile. Andiziva ndinesidingo sokuthabatha icala kwimpikiswano. Kodwa ndiqinisekile ukuba iimfazwe ziyinyani ze balwa ngenxa yezizathu zethu iinkokheli ezikhethiweyo ziqhubela phambili ukuxhaswa ngokubanzi nenkxaso yokuthanda izwe.

Ividiyo kaCorbett yemizuzu engama-24 ubeka eli tyala ngokungagungqiyo njengoko unokufuna, ushwankathela "iinyani nje" malunga nemvelaphi yeemfazwe ezisithoba kwinkulungwane ephelileyo:

• IMfazwe Yehlabathi I
• Ukuhlasela kweJapan kweManchuria naseChina
• KweMfazwe Yehlabathi II
• Imfazwe yaseKorea
• Imfazwe yaseVietnam
• Imfazwe yemihla emithandathu
• KwiGulf I
• KwiGulf War II
• Ibhobho yesibini yeBibiya (2011)

Ndazazi uninzi lwezi nyaniso ngokufunda kukaDavid Swanson Imfazwe lixoki kwaye ubukele uOliver Stone Iingqungquthela zeMbali Kwaye, kwakude kudala ngaphambi koko, ukubhengeza ngaphakathi kukaGeneral Smedley Butler ', Imfazwe yiRacket. Nawuphi na kuthi onokuthi abandakanyeke kwincoko yetafile yesidlo sangokuhlwa kunye nabahlobo abathatha indawo engacacanga, nazi iimbumbulu esizidingayo ukuze sikhuphe imfazwe "ngoqhankqalazo lokuqala lokuzikhusela."

Ndiza kuthetha ibali elinye kuphela, eli lize njengesityhilelo kum. Ndimdala ngokwaneleyo ukuba ndingayikhumbula iMfazwe yama-Arab nama-Israyeli ngoJuni, ngo-1967, xa ndandinguSophomore eHarvard. Umkhosi wakwa-Israeli wamatsha usiya eSinayi, i-West Bank, kunye neGolan Heights, uwuphindaphinda kane umhlaba weli lizwe kwisithuba nje seentsuku ezintandathu.

Ndafunda iNew York Times, ndakhuliswa ndingumJuda kwaye ndinamaqela amaninzi endifunda nawo angamaJuda. Kwakulula kum ukuba ndikholelwe, ngelo xesha, ukuba amaJiphutha ayekrwada kwaye enekratshi, kwaye babefumene amandla abo kumkhosi okrelekrele, ofanelekileyo wase-Israeli. Kwakuyiminyaka emininzi kamva apho ndandiqala ukukrokrela ukuba imfazwe yeentsuku ezintandathu yayingathintelwanga, kwaye yayicwangcisiwe ngurhulumente wase-Israeli ngokucacileyo ukwandisa ummandla wabo. Into entsha kum kwividiyo yaseCorbett yayilibali le-USS Liberty, inqanawa yomkhosi wamanzi eyayingaxhobanga eyayimi kwiMpuma yeMeditera. Ngomhla we-4 ngaphandle kwe-6, iinqwelomoya zemfazwe zase-Israeli zaphosa iibhombu kunye nemipu e-Liberty ngaphezulu kwemizuzu engama-90. Abantu baseMelika abangama-34 basweleka. U-Israyeli kamva wathi ibiyimpazamo kumlo wedabi- abaqhubi beenqwelo moya babecinga ukuba yinqanawa yase-Egypt. Bacel 'uxolo bahlawula imbuyekezo.

“Kwiminyaka elishumi elinesihlanu emva kohlaselo, umqhubi wenqwelomoya wase-Israel waya kwabasindayo kwinkululeko emva koko wabamba udliwanondlebe oluninzi nalowo wayesakuba ngu-Congressman uPaul N. (Pete) McCloskey ngendima yakhe. Ngokwalomqhubi wenqwelomoya okhokelayo kwa-Israeli, wayamkela inkululeko njengoMerika kwangoko, wazisa ikomkhulu lakhe, waxelelwa ukuba angayihoyi iflegi yaseMelika kwaye aqhubeke nohlaselo. Wala ukwenza njalo kwaye wabuyela kwisiseko, apho wabanjwa khona. ” [umthombo]

Ibali endilifumene kumdlalo bhanyabhanya kaCorbett yayikukuba uhlaselo lwalucwangcisiwe ngamaSirayeli, ngokunokwenzeka ngemvume yeSebe laseMelika, ndinoluvo lokuba kuya kuxelwa njengokuhlaselwa yi-Egypt, kunye nesizathu sokuba i-United States ijoyine. imfazwe ngakwicala lakwaSirayeli. Kuxa kwafunyanwa isazisi sabahlaseli bakwa-Israyeli apho baphindela emva kwebali "lempazamo". Umongameli uJohnson ulwamkele ngenceba u-Israyeli uxolelo, kwaye nenguqulelo "yempazamo edabini" yayiyeyona yabhalwa ziindaba zaseNtshona zelo xesha.

Oku kwenzeke kwiminyaka emithathu emva kokubambeka kukaJohnson ekumiseni isiganeko seGulf of Tonkin, kodwa yayizakuba sesinye iminyaka engamashumi amane phambi kokuba ndiqalise ingcinga “yokuhlaselwa kweflegi engeyonyani”.
