UDanielle Yaor uneminyaka eyi-19, kwaSirayeli, kwaye wala ukuthabatha inxaxheba kumkhosi wakwaSirayeli. Ungomnye wabali-150 abazibophelele, ukuza kuthi ga ngoku, ukuba esi sikhundla:
Thina, bemi belizwe lakwaSirayeli, sikhethelwe inkonzo yasemkhosini. Sibongoza abafundi bale leta ukuba bakubekele ecaleni oko bekusoloko kuthatyathwa njengento eqhelekileyo baze baphinde bahlolisise imiphumo yenkonzo yasemkhosini.
Thina, basayine apha ngezantsi, sizimisele ukwala ukuya emkhosini kwaye esona sizathu sokwala kukuchasa kwethu ukuthathwa kwemikhosi yasePalestina. Abantu basePalestine kwimimandla ehlaselweyo bahlala phantsi kolawulo luka-Israel nangona bengakhethanga ukwenza njalo, kwaye bengenandlela yomthetho yokuphembelela lo rhulumente okanye iinkqubo zokwenza izigqibo. Oku akukokulingana okanye ubulungisa. Kule mimandla, amalungelo oluntu aphulwa, kwaye izenzo ezichazwe phantsi komthetho wamazwe ngamazwe njengolwaphulo-mthetho lwemfazwe luqhutyelwa imihla ngemihla. Oku kubandakanya ukubulawa kwabantu (ukubulala ngokungekho semthethweni), ukwakhiwa kweendawo zokuhlala kwimihlaba ethathiweyo, ukuvalelwa ngokolawulo, ukuthuthunjiswa, isohlwayo esihlanganyelweyo kunye nolwabiwo olungalinganiyo lwezibonelelo ezifana nombane namanzi. Naluphi na uhlobo lwenkonzo yezempi luqinisa le meko, kwaye, ngoko ke, ngokuhambelana nesazela sethu, asikwazi ukuthatha inxaxheba kwinkqubo eyenza ezi zenzo zikhankanywe ngasentla.
Ingxaki ngomkhosi ayiqali okanye iphele ngomonakalo owenzeka kuluntu lwasePalestine. Ingena kubomi bemihla ngemihla kuluntu lwakwaSirayeli kwakhona: ibumba inkqubo yemfundo, amathuba ethu abasebenzi, ngelixa ikhuthaza ubuhlanga, ubundlobongela kunye nocalucalulo ngokobuhlanga, kwesizwe kunye nesini.
Siyala ukunceda inkqubo yomkhosi ekukhuthazeni nasekukhuthazeni ulawulo lwamadoda. Ngokoluvo lwethu, umkhosi ukhuthaza ubudoda obunobundlobongela nobugorha apho 'kunokuba kulungile'. Le ngcamango iyingozi kumntu wonke, ngakumbi abo bangayifanelanga. Ngaphaya koko, siyayichasa ingcinezelo, ucalucalulo, kunye nolwakhiwo lwamandla olunesini kakhulu kumkhosi ngokwawo.
Siyala ukushiya imigaqo yethu njengemeko yokwamkelwa kuluntu lwethu. Siye sacinga nzulu ngokwala kwethu kwaye siyama kwizigqibo zethu.
Sibhenela oontanga bethu, kwabo basebenza emkhosini ngoku kunye/okanye abagcinelwe umsebenzi, nakuluntu lwakwa-Israeli ngokubanzi, ukuba baphinde baqwalasele isimo sabo sokuhlala, emkhosini, kunye nendima yomkhosi kuluntu. Sikholelwa kumandla kunye nokukwazi kwabantu ukuba batshintshe inyaniso ibe ngcono ngokudala uluntu olunobulungisa kunye nobulungisa. Ukwala kwethu kubonisa le nkolelo.
Bambalwa kwabachasayo abali-150 okanye ngaphezulu abasentolongweni. UDanielle uthi ukuya entolongweni kuyanceda ekwenzeni intetho. Inyaniso, nantsi omnye wabalingane bakhe be-reseniks kwi-CNN ngenxa yokuba waya entolongweni. Kodwa ukuya entolongweni kunyanzelekile, uDanielle uthi, kuba umkhosi (IDF) kufuneka uhlawule iiShekele ezingama-250 ngosuku (iidola ezingama-66, ngexabiso eliphantsi ngokwemigangatho yase-US) ukugcina umntu entolongweni kwaye akanamdla omncinci wokwenza oko. Endaweni yoko, uninzi lubanga ukugula ngengqondo, utshilo uYaor, emkhosini wazi kakuhle ukuba le nto bayibangayo kukungafuni ukuba yinxalenye yomkhosi. I-IDF inika amadoda inkathazo ngakumbi kunabasetyhini, uthi, kwaye ininzi isebenzisa amadoda kwindawo yaseGaza. Ukuze uye entolongweni, kufuneka ube nentsapho ekuxhasayo, yaye uDanielle uthi eyakhe intsapho ayimxhasi isigqibo sakhe sokungavumi.
Kutheni wala into elindelwe lusapho lwakho noluntu kuwe? UDanielle Yaor uthi uninzi lwamaSirayeli awazi malunga nokubandezeleka kwabantu basePalestine. Uyazi kwaye ukhetha ukungabi yinxalenye yalo. Uthi: “Kufuneka ndale ukuba nenxaxheba kulwaphulo-mthetho lwemfazwe olwenziwa lilizwe lam. “I-Israel iye yaba lilizwe elinobuxhakaxhaka obungabamkeli abanye. Oko ndandiselula saqeqeshelwa ukuba ngamajoni angamadoda acombulula iingxaki ngogonyamelo. Ndifuna ukusebenzisa uxolo ukwenza ihlabathi libe ngcono.”
Yaor yiyo ukhenketha eUnited States, ethetha kwiziganeko kunye nomntu wasePalestina. Uzichaza ezi ziganeko ukuza kuthi ga ngoku “njengezimangalisayo” yaye uthi abantu “baxhasa kakhulu.” Ukuphelisa intiyo nogonyamelo “luxanduva lomntu wonke,” utsho—“bonke abantu behlabathi.”
NgoNovemba uya kubuyela kwaSirayeli, ethetha kwaye ebonisa. Ngayiphi injongo?
Ilizwe elinye, hayi ezimbini. “Akusekho sithuba saneleyo samazwe amabini. Kungakho ilizwe elinye lakwaSirayeli-lasePalestine, esekwe eluxolweni nothando kunye nabantu abahlala kunye. Sinokufika njani apho?
UDanielle uthi, njengokuba abantu besiqonda ukubandezeleka kwabantu basePalestina, kufuneka baxhase i-BDS (ukwayikiswa, ukugxothwa, kunye nezohlwayo). Urhulumente wase-US kufuneka aphelise inkxaso yakhe yezemali ku-Israyeli kunye nomsebenzi wakhe.
Ukususela ekuhlaselweni kwamva nje kweGaza, u-Israel uye wahamba waya ngasekunene, utsho, kwaye kuye kwaba nzima "ukukhuthaza ulutsha ukuba lungabi yinxalenye yengqondo eyinxalenye yenkqubo yemfundo." Le leta ingasentla yapapashwa “naphi na apho kunokwenzeka” yaye yayiyeyokuqala abaninzi ukuva ukuba kukho ukhetho olukhoyo ngaphandle komkhosi.
UDanielle Yaor uthi: “Sifuna ukuba lo msebenzi uphele, ukuze sonke siphile ubomi obubekekileyo apho onke amalungelo ethu aya kuhlonelwa.”
