Izigwebo zibulala. Kwaye kunye nezixhobo ezininzi zeemfazwe zanamhlanje, zibulala ngokungazikhethekanga kwaye zingenanto.
Kwiminyaka elishumi elinambini phakathi kweemfazwe ezimbini zeBush (uBush I, 1991 noBush II, 2003), isohlwayo esabekwa eIraq sabangela ngaphezulu kwesiqingatha sesigidi sokufa kwabantu baseIraq ngenxa yokunqongophala kwamayeza kunye noncedo lonyango. UMadeleine Albright, uNobhala Wezwe wase-US ukusukela ngo-1997 ukuya ku-2001 kunye ne-avatar yamaxabiso aseMelika, wayelungile koku. Ngo-1996, xa wayebuzwa ngumntu owayebuza imibuzo kumabonakude malunga nokusweleka kwabantwana base-Iraq okwabangelwa zizigwebo, waphendula wathi: “Olu lukhetho olunzima kakhulu, kodwa ixabiso, sicinga ukuba ixabiso lilifanele.”
Omnye ucinga ukuba uMike Pompeo, uNobhala kaRhulumente we-Trump okhoyo kunye kunye nokungafihlekanga kwe-avatar yangoku yexabiso leMelika, akafumananga lukhetho olunzima. Kodwa ke mhlawumbi akazange athethe okanye aphulaphule abantu abaninzi base-Iranian njengoSara.
USara unguminyaka eyi-36 ubudala. Uhlala eThabriz, enyakatho ekude ye-Iran, malunga neekhilomitha eziyi-650 ukusuka eTehran. Kwiminyaka elisithoba edlule wazala unyana, u-Ali, umntwana wakhe wokuqala. Akuzange kuthathe ixesha elide ukuba aqaphele ukuba kukho ingxaki. Ekuqaleni uAli wayedla aze agxume kodwa kungekudala waqala ukuhlanza nokulahlekelwa ubunzima. Kwakuyiinyanga ezintathu ngaphambi kokuba u-Ali afumaniswe kakuhle. USara wayeyika ukuba uya kumlahleka ngaphambi kokuba eneminyaka emithathu ubudala. Kwaye ngoku, umzimba wakhe wonke udibana njengoko exelela ibali lakhe.
"Akakwazanga ukuhambisa isandla sakhe esincinci; Kwakubonakala ngathi wayengasaphila. Emva kweenyanga ezintathu umntu wasizisa ugqirha. Ngokukhawuleza xa edibana no-Ali wayesazi ukuba yiCystic Fibrosis, isifo esiyimfuyo esichaphazela imiphunga, i-pancreas kunye nezinye izitho. Yisifo esiqhubekayo, esiyimfuyo esibangela ukutheleleka kwemiphunga yamaphaphu kwaye sinciphisa amandla okuphefumula ngokuhamba kwexesha. Asiyihlwempuzekileyo kodwa iyeza libiza kakhulu kwaye lavela eJamani. Unina onomntwana onjengam, ukhumbula yonke into yezohlwayo. Xa u-Ahmadinejad wayengumongameli we-Iran, kwaye izigwebo ze-UN zenziwa izinto ezinzima kakhulu. Kwakuyixesha elitsha ebomini bethu kunye nesifo sikaAli.Iipilisi, ngaphandle kokuba ndiza kulahlekelwa yindodana yam, zishiye ukuthunyelwa e-Iran. Ndayihlawula imali eninzi kubantu abahlukahlukeneyo ndawacela ukuba bayigqithisele ngesi-Iranian ngathi. Ndandidla ukuya emngceleni wase-Iran kabini ngenyanga okanye ngamanye amaxesha ukufumana iyeza - ngokungemthetho - ukugcina unyana wam ephila. Kodwa oku akuzange kugcine ixesha elide. Emva kwexesha kwakungekho mntu undibanceda kwaye kwakungekho namachiza ku-Ali. Safika eTehran kwaye wayesesibhedlele iinyanga ezintathu. Ndemi apho ndijonge umntwanami, ndiyazi ukuba umboniso ngamnye unokuba ngowokugqibela. Abantu bandixelele ukuba ndiyeke kunzima kwaye ndimvumele aphumle ngoxolo, kodwa ndingumama. Kufuneka ube ngowokuqonda. "
Xa une-cystic fibrosis inkqubo yakho ayinakho ukusebenza kakuhle nge-chloride. Ngaphandle kwekloride yokutsala amanzi kwiiseli, i-mucus kumalungu ohlukeneyo iyajiba kwaye incangathi emiphungeni. I-Mucus ivala i-airways kwaye ibambe iintsholongwane, zikhokelela kusulelo, ukudumba kunye nokusilela kokuphefumla. Kwaye yonke ityuwa ishiya umzimba wakho xa ubile. USara uyalila xa ekhumbula ubuso buka-Ali bugutyungelwe yityuwa xa elele.
"Ekugqibeleni urhulumente wakwazi ukuthenga ezinye iipilisi zaseIndiya. Kodwa umgangatho wawuhluke ngokupheleleyo kwaye umzimba wakhe omncinane wathatha ixesha elide ukulungelelanisa. Izimpawu ezintsha zaqala ukuziveza ngokwawo umzimba omncinci obuthathaka. Iminyaka emithandathu! Wadonsa iminyaka emithandathu! Wadonsa waza waphosa yonke into. Sahamba rhoqo eTehran noAli, owayengenakuphefumula ngendlela eqhelekileyo. Xa uRouhani ethatyathwa nguMongameli [kunye neSicwangciso esiSebenzayo soLuntu esiSebenzayo (JCPOA) sayinwe] kwakukho iyeza kwakhona. Sasicinga ukuba ekugqibeleni siza kuhlangulwa kwaye bekungekho na ingxaki kumntwana wethu. Ndinethemba elingakumbi kwiintsapho zethu. Ndaqala ukusebenza ukuze ndibe nemali eninzi ukuze uAli aphile njengomntwana oqhelekileyo kwaye aqhubeke nokuya esikolweni. "
Ngeli xesha uSara wafunda nokunyango oluphambili olukhoyo kwi-US.
"Ndikulungele ukuthengisa yonke into endiyenayo ebomini bam kwaye ndithathe inkwenkwe yam apho ukuze ndiyazi ukuba uya kuphila ixesha elide kunamashumi amabini aneminyaka engamashumi amabini ubudala, oko kukuthi yonke ugqirha uyaqhubeka esitshela. Kodwa ke lo Mongameli omtsha olawula eUnited States uthe akukho maRaniya avumelekileyo e-USA. Singabantu base-Irani. Asinayo enye ipasipoti. Ngubani owaziyo oko kuza kwenzeka kuAli ngaphambi kokuba uMongameli omtsha akhethwe. Ulonwabo lwethu aluzange luhlale ixesha elide. "
Uhleka ngokubuhlungu xa ebuzwa malunga nezohlwayo ezintsha.
"Siyasetyenziswa kuyo. Kodwa ingxaki yomzimba wam unyana ayikho. I-Iran ayisakwazi ukuhlawula iipilisi zam unyana zifuna ngenxa yezohlwayo zebhanki. Nangona ii-laboratories zase-Iranian zivelisa iipilisi ezithile, ngokucacileyo ziyahlukileyo. Andifuni ukuthetha ngomgangatho oswelekileyo weepilisi; UAli wam omncinci uye waba esibhedlele amashumi amaxesha kwiinyanga ezimbalwa ezidlulileyo.Izi pilisi zinzima ukuzifumana. Izidakamizwa zinikezelwa ngokuncinci. Isixhobo ngasinye sezilwanyana sifumana ipilisi enye ipakethe. Ubuncinane oku kuthethwa ngabo. Andikwazi ukufumana iipilisi eThabriz. Ndibiza bonke abantu ndibaziyo eTehran kwaye ndicela ukuba bahambe bafune yonke indawo yokuthengisa izidakamizwa kwaye bandithenge kangangoko banako, okungahambi kakuhle kwabanye abaneengxaki ezifanayo. Kunzima ukubiza abanye kwaye ubacele ukuba bancede ukugcina umntwana wakho ephila. Abanye abaphenduli iifowuni zam. Ndiyaqonda. Akulula ukuya kwikhemisi ukuya kwi-pharmacy kwaye ubathandazela ukuba bancede umntu ongazi lutho ngaye. Udadewethu uhlala eTehran, ungumfundi waseyunivesiti. Konke ngoku kwaye ndibeka yonke into enayo kwi-akhawunti yakhe yasebhanki aze afune kuzo zonke iifommikhali zeTehran. Kwaye ixabiso ngoku liphindwe kabini. Yonke iphakheji iqukethe iipilisi ze-10 kwaye sidinga amaphakheji e-3 ngenyanga. Ngamanye amaxesha nangakumbi. Kuxhomekeke kuAli kunye nendlela umzimba wakhe uphendule ngayo. Oogqirha bathi xa ekhula, uya kufuna amayeza aphezulu. Ngaphambi kokuba ixabiso libize, kodwa ubuncinci sazi ukuba bekhona kwi-pharmacy. Ngoku uTrump ukukhupha ngaphandle kwento kunye nezohlwayo ezintsha izinto zitshintshile. Andizi ukuba ndiza kuba nantoni na unyana wam. Ngexesha lokugqibela esaya eTehran ku-Ali ukuya esibhedlele, wabuza ugqirha ukuba uya kufa ngeli xesha. Nangona ugqirha wayethetha ngezinto ezilungileyo endlebeni yakhe ngobomi kunye nekamva sasizibona iinyembezi emehlweni kaAli njengoko wayegubungela athi: 'Ndibuhlungu' andinakuyeka ukucinga ngonyana wam efa phambi kwam amehlo. "
USara ubeka umunwe wakhe ngokunganqikazi kwintsapho ejikeleze iholo.
"Le ndoda ngumqhubi weteksi. Intombazana yakhe inesifo esinxulumene nentambo yomthambo. Unyango lwakhe lubiza kakhulu. Abenayo imali. Akukho liyeza kuye emva kwezohlwayo. Intombazana enentlungu enjalo yenza ukuba ndikhale njalo. Kwiminyaka emibini edlulileyo kwakungekho nanye ixesha esiya eTehran ukuba asizange sibone apha esibhedlele. "
Ngomhla emva kokuba sathetha ukuzalwa kukaAli. Kuba uSara, isipho esona sihle kakhulu siya kuba liyeza.
"Ngaba unokubanceda? Ngaba abanako ukuzisa iyeza kuba bana babandezeleka? Ngaba sinokuba nethemba lokuba ngenye imini umntu uvakalelwa oko sikujongene nayo kwaye uzama ukutshintsha imeko yethu? "
Nge-22 ka-Agasti 2018, umSebenzi oManyeneyo weZizwe eziManyeneyo u-Idriss Jazairy uchaze isohlwayo esichasene ne-Iran "njengongenabulungisa nonzakalisayo. Ukumiswa kwakhona kwezohlwayo ngokuchasene neIran emva kokurhoxa kwelinye ilizwe eUnited States kwisivumelwano senyukliya saseIran, nesamkelwe ngazwinye liBhunga lezoKhuseleko ngenkxaso ye-US uqobo, kubhenca ukungabikho mthethweni kwesi senzo. ” Ngokuka-Jazairy, "impembelelo ebandayo" ebangelwe "kukungaqondakali" kwezohlwayo ezisandula ukuphinda zibekwe, kungakhokelela "ekufeni cwaka ezibhedlele"
Ulawulo lwe-US lugxininisa oku akuyi kwenzeka ngenxa yokuba, njengokuba kunjalo e-Iraq, kukho ioli yokubonelela ngezorhwebo. Ngaphantsi kwegunya layo elingenakunyulwa, i-US ivumele i-8 yomthengi wayo, kuquka iNdiya, iSouth Korea neJapan, ukuqhubeka nokuthenga ioli e-Iran. Nangona kunjalo, imali ayiyi ku-Iran. UMike Pompeo, uNobhala kaRhulumente we-Trump ka-Trump, uchaze ngokuphendula kwinqaku elibi kwi-Newsweek ukuba "iipesenti ezilikhulu zeengeniso e-Iran ezithengiswayo ngokuthengiswa kwamafutha angcolileyo kuya kubanjelwa kuma-akhawunti angaphandle kwaye zingasetyenziswa yi-Iran kuphela ngenxa yoluntu urhweba okanye ukuhwebelana kwamanye amazwe kwiimpahla kunye neenkonzo ezingekho mthethweni, "kuquka ukutya kunye namayeza.
Omnye uyazibuza ukuba uMary Albright, umenzi 'wokukhetha okunzima', makumvumele uPompeo iLeberator ukuba emva kweminyaka emibini yezohlwayo e-Iraq kunye namakhulu ezinkulungwane zokufa, kwakungekhokho utshintsho lolawulo kwaye imfazwe eyalandela yada engadlulanga ngaphezu kweminyaka elishumi elinesithandathu.
