Ukuva amajelo eendaba ase-US exela, i-US yatsalwa kwimfazwe entsha ngoLwesithathu.
Ababhubhisi base-US kwiGulf of Aden uqalise ukuhlasela kweenqwelomoya ngokuchasene nabavukeli baseHouthi, iqela labavukeli baseShia ngoku elimelana nephulo elikhulu lokuqhushumba livela kumfelandawonye okhokelwa yiSaudi kungquzulwano oluthatha unyaka onesiqingatha phakathi kwabavukeli beShia kunye norhulumente waseSunni oxhaswa yiSaudi eYemen. IPentagon yanyanzelisa ukuba imijukujelwa yokuhamba ngenqanawa idutyulwe kwi-USS Mason ngeCawa nangoLwesithathu ukusuka kummandla olawulwa yiHouthi, kwaye wabiza i-airstrikes "impendulo elinganiselweyo yokuzikhusela".
Ngokungathandabuzekiyo, imithombo yeendaba yase-US ilandele ukukhokela kwePentagon. Inyaniso yokuba i-United States iye yatshisa ngokoqobo iinqwelomoya ze-Saudi kwiinyanga ze-18 ngelixa ithengisa izixhobo kunye nokubonelela ngenkxaso yobukrelekrele kwi-Gulf monarchy-izenzo eziye zeSebe likaRhulumente wase-US. iinkolelo zinokubhenca I-US ukuya kutshutshiso lolwaphulo-mthetho lwemfazwe-yayijongelwa phantsi okanye ingahoywa. Kwaye amajelo eendaba akazange akhumbule imbali ende yase-US ye Imfazwe yedrone eYemen, apho umkhosi kunye ne-CIA bebeqhuba ukubulala ixesha elide ukususela ngo-2002, babulala abantu abangaphezu kwe-500, kuquka ubuncinane be-65 abantu.
Ukuza kuthi ga ngoku, uninzi loshicilelo lwengxelo yemithombo yeendaba ubuncinci bezikhathaza ngokubeka ngokufutshane uhlaselo kunye nohlaselo kumxholo obanzi, kuqwalaselwa indima yase-US kwiphulo lokuqhunyiswa kwebhombu eliye lashiya ngaphezulu kwe-4,000 ifile, kubandakanya ngaphezulu kwe-140. kuqhunyiswe ibhombu emngcwabeni e-Sana'a kwiveki ephelileyo-nanjengokuba amabali ayeyijongela phantsi imbali yase-US kungquzulwano. I ENew York Times (10/12/16), umzekelo, wathi kumhlathi wesibini wengxelo yayo kwii-airstrikes (ugxininiso longeziweyo):
Uqhankqalazo ngokuchasene nabavukeli baseHouthi yaphawula okokuqala ukuba iUnited States ibandakanyeka emkhosini kwimfazwe yamakhaya phakathi kweHouthis, iqela lemveli lamaShiite elinonxibelelwano olukhululekileyo neIran, kunye norhulumente waseYemeni, oxhaswa yiSaudi Arabia kunye nezinye izizwe zamaSunni.
Kodwa Maxesha Ibali liqhubekile lavuma, ngandlel' ithile ngokuchaseneyo, ukuba i-US "ithe cwaka inika inkxaso yasemkhosini kwiphulo lokuqhunyiswa kwebhombu elikhokelwa yi-Saudi Arabia ngokuchasene nabavukeli ukusukela kulo nyaka uphelileyo." Ibali laphawula ukuba i-US yayiyiyo
ukubonelela ngobukrelekrele kunye neetanki zoMkhosi woMoya ukuba zigcwalise amafutha kwiijethi zomanyano kunye neziqhushumbisi. Umkhosi waseMelika wongeze ngaphezulu kweenqwelomoya ezingama-5,700 ezibandakanyekayo kwiphulo lokuqhushumba…. Bangaphezu kwama-4,000 abantu ababulewe ukusukela oko kwaqala uqhushumbo, ngokutsho igosa eliphezulu lamalungelo oluntu kwiZizwe eziManyeneyo.
Iingxelo zeendaba zikamabonwakude, kwelinye icala, zazigcina i-spin kwaye ziwushiya ngaphandle umxholo. Ubukhulu becala basilela ukukhankanya ukuba i-US ibincedisa uhlaselo lwase-Saudi kubavukeli baseHouthi unyaka onesiqingatha, kwaye basibeka esi siganeko njengenqanawa yemfazwe yase-US eyayihlaselwa ngelixa ijonge ishishini layo kumanzi aphesheya.
CBSUDavid Martin, osanda kweyakhe I-14 yemizuzu ye-Pentagon yorhwebo kwinyanga ephelileyo, akazange athethe ngephulo lokuqhushumba kwe-Saudi okanye achaze indima ye-US emfazweni yecandelo lakhe. CBS Lo Mso (10 / 13 / 16). Ngapha koko, uMartin akazange athethe igama elithi "Saudi" okanye abize nawaphi na amanye amazwe abandakanyekayo eYemen, ephawula nje ukuba abavukeli "bazama ukubhukuqa urhulumente." Umbukeli oqhelekileyo uya kuza ecinga ukuba inqanawa yase-US Navy yenzekile nje ukuba iselumelwaneni xa yayidutyulwa ngokungalindelekanga.
ABCkaMartha Raddatz (Good Morning America,10/13/16) ngokunjalo khange amazise umbukeli ukuba i-US ibe yinxalenye yemfazwe yamakhaya iinyanga ezili-18. Akazange aphinde asebenzise igama elithi “Saudi” okanye abhekisele kwiphulo elikhohlakeleyo lokuqhushumba kweebhombu; akazange athethe nokuba kukho ungquzulwano kwaphela.
CNNkaBarbara Starr (CNN, 10/13/16) wajoyina iklabhu, eshiya i-US kunye neendima zaseSaudi kungquzulwano ngokupheleleyo. Uhambe inyathelo elinye ukuya phambili kwaye ephinda eqikelele ngokuphindaphindiweyo malunga nokubandakanyeka "ngqo" kwe-Iranian Mason uhlaselo kunye nokuba kuya kubandakanya ntoni na, ngaphandle kobungqina obungenaziro kwaye akukho ngcebiso evela kwiPentagon yokuthatha inxaxheba kweIran. U-Starr wade wadibanisa i-Al Qaeda kunye ne-Iran, nangona babekumacala ahlukeneyo ongquzulwano:
Imijukujelwa yaseYemeni yayindala kodwa yayifakwe iintloko zemfazwe eziyingozi kakhulu, uhlobo lwe-Al Qaeda kunye ne-Iran abakwaziyo ukwenza.
Intsingiselo yayikukuba iAl Qaeda inokuba ngandlel’ ithile inike abavukeli baseHouthi ngemijukujelwa, kodwa oku, ewe, akukho ngqiqweni: I-Houthis kunye ne-Al Qaeda ziintshaba zamahlelo kwaye bezisilwa ngalo lonke ixesha lemfazwe yamakhaya. Suyinaka; U-Starr wayefuna ukuphakamisa izibonda kwaye akhuphe i-boogeymen eninzi kangangoko anako.
MSNBCkaRachel Maddow (10/13/16) yazisa eyona bhetshi imbi. Akaphelelanga nje ekushiyeni iphulo lokuqhunyiswa kwebhombu laseSaudi kunye nendima ye-US kulo (kwakhona, eshiya umbukeli ukuba akholelwe ukuba uhlaselo lwaluyinto engekhoyo ngokupheleleyo), uwuphendule lo mbandela ngamazwi adinayo, ekhumbula ingxelo kaTrump yokuba uza kuhlasela iinqanawa zemfazwe zaseIran. oko kwasongela i-US:
Usenokukhumbula umgqatswa waseRiphabhlikhi uDonald Trump wathi kwintetho engafanelekanga ngexesha lephulo, ukuba iinqanawa zase-Iranian zisondele kakhulu kwiinqanawa zaseMelika kwaye ukuba oomatiloshe base-Iranian benza izenzo ezikrwada koomatiloshe bethu baseMelika phantsi koMongameli uTrump, siya kuzivuthela ezo nqanawa zase-Iranian. emanzini. Ewe, iinqanawa zaseIran kunye neenqanawa zaseMelika ngoku zisemanzini afanayo, kunxweme lwaseYemen embindini wemfazwe, kunye nemijukujelwa yeTomahawk kunye nemijukujelwa yokuhamba ngenqanawa esele ibhabha. Zinzile.
Kutheni le nto iinqanawa zaseMelika zikuloo manzi? Kutheni imijukujelwa yeTomahawk “ibhabha”? Ungquzulwano aluchazwanga; iphakanyiswe kuphela ukuze uMaddow alumkise ukuba umtyunjwa we-GOP angenza izinto zibe mandundu. Ewe, ayinguye uTrump owaxhasa i-Saudis kwiphulo lomoya elishiye amawaka efile, kodwa u-Obama-kwaye nguHillary Clinton owathi njengonobhala welizwe ngomdla watyhala ukuba athengise iinqwelomoya zemfazwe eRiyadh (Ukuthintela, 2/22/16). Kodwa ezo nyaniso zinokuphazamisana nengxelo yexesha lonyulo.
UMaddow, njengezinye iingxelo, wasebenzisa isilungisi esilayishiweyo esithi "i-Iran-backed" ukuchaza iHouthis (nangona iingcali kunye namagosa ePentagon ecinga ukuba inkxaso ye-Iran yeyokuba." phezulu). Le yi-asymmetry ecacileyo, kuthathelwa ingqalelo ukuba akukho nanye yeengxelo ezibhekiselele kurhulumente wase-Yemeni njenge "i-US-backed" okanye "i-Saudi-backed." Ukwathe uMkhosi waManzi watyhola uhlaselo lweHouthis, xa iPentagon ibanga ukuba imijukujelwa ivela kumhlaba wabavukeli, kwaye inokuba ivela kwamanye amaqela amanyeneyo (ENew York Times, 10/13/16).
Ayipheleli nje ekuxhaseni kwe-US iSaudi Arabia kuzo zonke ezi ngxelo, igama elithi “Saudi” alithethwa nakweyiphi na kuzo. Umbukeli unikwa umbono wokuba imfazwe, ngaphandle kokugxuphuleka kwe-Iranian, yinto yangaphakathi ngokupheleleyo-xa ibandakanya amazwe angaphezu kwe-15 ahlukeneyo, ubukhulu becala ii-monarchies zamaSunni zixhasa urhulumente wase-Yemeni-kwaye abavukeli bathatha isigqibo sokukhetha ukulwa. ngowona mkhosi mkhulu kwimbali yehlabathi.
AmaHouthi kwelawo icala, khanyela ngamandla yenze uhlaselo kwi Mason, kwaye akukho bungqina bufumanekayo esidlangalaleni yayingabo okanye imikhosi emanyeneyo. Kufuneka kuqatshelwe, nangona kunjalo, ukuba imikhosi yeHouthi uthathe ityala ngokutshonisa inqanawa yonikezelo ye-United Arab Emirates kwiiveki ezimbini ngaphambili.
Njengoko kudla ngokuba njalo ngemfazwe, imbambano “yegazi lokuqala”—okanye owaqalisa umlo—iyagutyungelwa ludaka. Ngokwemvelo oorhulumente bafuna ukuba abaphulaphuli behlabathi kunye nabemi babo bazijonge izenzo zabo njengezikhuselayo—eziyimfuneko impendulo ukuba ndlongondlongo, hayi ugonyamelo ngokwalo. Imithombo yeendaba yase-US inceda eli gosa lijikeleze ingxelo yalo malunga nokuqhunyiswa kwebhombu yase-Yemen yase-US.
