YiKorea, hayi iAfghanistan, ebanga isihloko esithi: "Yeyona mfazwe inde eMelika." Kungenxa yokuba ungquzulwano lwaseKorea aluzange luphele ngokusemthethweni. Endaweni yoko, yanqunyanyiswa kulandela imeko yasemkhosini, nawo onke amacala evuma ukusayina isivumelwano soXolelwaniso esithi makupheliswe umlilo obeka nje umlo kwimbambano.

70^th Isikhumbuzo sokuqala kweMfazwe yaseKorea siza kufika nge-25 kaJuni. Ngelixa imfazwe yaseWashington eAfghanistan igqogqe iminyaka eli-18, iMfazwe yaseKorea engasonjululwanga iye yaxokozela ngaphezulu kwamaxesha amane. Ngelixa ukuhla kweWashington eAfghanistan kuxabise ubuncwane baseMelika ngaphezulu kwe- $ 2 trillion, iindleko eziqhubekayo zoku "khusela" iPeninsula yaseKorea-ngokwenza izixhobo lommandla nokwakha amaziko emikhosi yase-US ngaphakathi eMzantsi Korea-ibe inkulu kakhulu.

Ukongeza ekubambeni imilindelo kunye nezikhumbuzo zokuphawula olu suku, kuyakubakho ikhwelo kumalungu eCongress ukuba atyikityele kwi-Rep. Ro Khanna's (D-CA) Isisombululo seNdlu 152, ebiza isiphelo esisemthethweni semfazwe yaseKorea.

Iiveki ezimbini ezidlulileyo, bendingomnye wabaphembeleli abangama-200 abathathe inxaxheba kwiVeki yokuKhuthaza uxolo kuKorea (i-KPAW), inyathelo lesizwe eliququzelelwa yiNethiwekhi yoXolo yaseKorea, iKorea yoxolo ngoku! Inethiwekhi yeGrassroots, isiVumelwano soXolo ngoku, kunye ne-Women Cross DMZ.

Iqela lam elinabantu abathandathu libandakanya oomama abathandanayo baseKorea-baseMelika, kubandakanya iBay Area umenzi wefilim / umtshantliziyo uDeann Borshay Liem, umlawuli Abafazi beCawe DMZ.

Umzuzu wethu we-30, uhlala kwiZoomchat kunye noBarbara Lee's (D-CA) rep eWashington uhambe kakuhle. Ukudibana ubuso ngobuso kunikezela ngesiqabu esimnandi kwisenzo esiqhelekileyo "se-laptop-activism" -ukugcwalisa umkhondo wemihla ngemihla wezikhalazo kwi-Intanethi. Njengegalelo lam, ndaye ndabelana ngembali eqokelelweyo ngelixa ndandilungiselela iNqaku leNyani laseNyakatho Korea World BEYOND War. Yaphawula kwinxalenye:

• Kwiminyaka engaphezu kwe-1200, iKorea yayikho njengobunye obumbuso. Oko kwaphela ngo-1910 xa iJapan yathimba loo mmandla. Kodwa yayiyi-US eyadala uMntla Korea.

Kwakungo-14 Agasti ngo-1945, emva kokuphela kwe-WWII, xa amagosa amabini oMkhosi wase-US atsala umgca kwimephu eyahlulahlula i-Korea.

• Ngexesha lamanyathelo “ezobupolisa” e-UN ngoo-1950, abombombayi base-US bahlasela uMntla ngeetoni ezingama-635,000 zeebhombu kunye nama-32,000 eetoni zethampasi. Iibhombu zonakalise iidolophu ezingama-78 zaseNyakatho Korea, izikolo ezingama-5,000 1,000, izibhedlele ezili-600,000 XNUMX, namakhaya angaphezu kwesiqingatha sesigidi. Abantu abangama-XNUMX baseNyakatho Korea babulawa.

Akumangalisi ukuba iNorth Korea yoyike i-US.

Namhlanje, eNyakatho Korea bazifumana bengqongwe ziziseko zase-US-ngaphezulu kwe-50 eSouth Korea kwaye ngaphezulu kwe-100 eJapan- ngee-B-52 iibhombu zenyukliya ezimise eGuam, kumgama ogwenxa wePyongyang.

• Ngo-1958 - ngokuchasene nesiVumelwano sase-Armistice- i-US yaqala ukuthumela izixhobo zase-athom ezantsi. Ngasihlandlo sithile, phantse i-950 imfazwe zenyukliya zase-US zagcinwa eSouth Korea. 

• I-US izityeshele kakhulu izicelo zaseNyakatho zokutyikitya "isivumelwano esinganyanzelekanga". Uninzi eMantla lukholelwa ukuba inkqubo yenyukliya kuphela kwento ekhusela ilizwe kuhlaselo lwaseMelika. 

• Sibonile ukuba ubuchule bokusebenza. 

Ngo-1994, uClinton Administration watyikitya “isiCwangciso-sikhokelo esiVunyelweneyo” nesaphelisa imveliso kaPyongyang yeplutonium kutshintshiselana ngoncedo lwezoqoqosho.

Ngo-2001, uGeorge Bush wasirhoxisa isivumelwano waza wasirhoxisa isohlwayo. INyakatho yaphendula ngokuvuselela inkqubo yayo yenyukliya.

• INyakatho iphinde yanikezela ngokupheliswa kwiimvavanyo zombumbulu ngenjongo yokumiswa kwemikhosi yezomkhosi yase-US-South Korea ejolise emaNtla. 

Ngo-Matshi ka-2019, i-US yavuma ukumisa uqeqesho oludibeneyo lwentwasahlobo. Ukuphendula, uKim Jong-engamiswanga iimvavanyo zecombie kwaye wadibana noDonald Trump kwi-DMZ. NgoJulayi, nangona kunjalo, i-US iphinde yaqala kwakhona imisebenzi yokudibana kunye neNyakatho yaphendula ngokuvuselela ukuvavanywa kokuphunyezwa kwemishini yokuphosa ubuchule.

Lixesha lokuba i-US ilandele ukukhokela kwe-China kwaye ityikitye isivumelwano soXolo esiphelisa ngokusemthethweni iMfazwe yase-Korea. 

Ukuphela kweveki, sifumene umyalezo wokuba uLind. U-Lee wayesizukisile isicelo sethu kwaye savuma ukuxhasa uHR 6639, efuna ukuba kugqitywe ngokusemthethweni kwiMfazwe yaseKorea.

Nanku ukugqitywa kweminyhadala yeveki evela kwilungu leqela lesizwe le-KPAW:

Ngo-2019, saba nabantu abamalunga nama-75 kusuku lweeKorea loNyango lukaXolo.

NgoJuni 2020, besinabathathi-nxaxheba abangaphezulu kwama-200 kwaye ngaphezulu kwama-50% yayingamaKorea-Amerika. Amavolontiya avela kumazwe angama-26 — ukusuka eCalifornia ukuya kwisiqithi saseNew York — ahlangana neeofisi ezingama-84 DC!

Kwaye sinalo uloyiso lwakwangoko.

• U-Car. Carolyn Maloney (NY) kunye no-Rep Barbara Lee (CA) baba zii-cosponsors zokuqala H.R. 6639
• USen.Ed Markey (MA) kunye no-Sen. Ben Cardin (MD) bavumile ukwenza i-cosponsor Icandelo lama-3395 kwiNdlu yeeNkundla.
• UMthetho woNcedo lweNcedo loLuntu lwaseNorth Korea (S.3908) wazisiwe ngokusemthethweni kwaye isicatshulwa siza kufumaneka kungekudala. Apha:

Iveki yokukhuthaza yayigcwele ithemba kunye namabali abuhlungu abuhlungu. Omnye wabemi ukhumbula indlela awafudukela e-US, eshiya abantu ababathandayo ngasemva eKorea-abanye bahlala eMzantsi kwaye abanye baseNtla: "Ndinosapho olwahluleleneyo, kodwa uninzi lwabo luswelekile."

Kwenye intlanganiso, xa besixelela umntu osebenza kwinkongolo, "Senza oku kuba lo ngunyaka wama-70 weMfazwe yaseKorea," safumana impendulo elandelayo: "Imfazwe yaseKorea ayipheli?"

Njengama-70^th Isikhumbuzo semfazwe yaseKorea esondela, iqela lesicwangciso le-KPAW kunye nemibutho exhasayo (Korea Peace Network, Korea Peace Now! Grassroots Network, Peace Treaty Now, Women Cross DMZ) babongoza wonke umntu ukuba azibandakanye nabameli bezopolitiko kwaye abakhuthaze ukuba bakhuphe Umnxeba kawonke-wonke wokuphelisa iMfazwe yaseKorea-ngokuchanekileyo, "ngaxesha lithile phakathi kukaJuni 25 (umhla i-US ewamkela ngokusemthethweni njengesiqalo semfazwe yaseKorea) kunye noJulayi 27 (usuku olwasayinwa iArmistice)."

Ngezantsi kukho ezinye "iindawo zokuthetha" ezivela kwi- I-Korea yoXolo lweNethiwekhi:

• Ngowama-2020 kuphawulwa unyaka wama-70 weMfazwe yaseKorea, engazange iphele ngokusemthethweni. Imfazwe eqhubekayo ilizwe ngunobangela wemfazwe kunye noxinzelelo kwiPeninsula yaseKorea. Ukufika kuxolo kunye ne-demokrasi, kufuneka siphelise iMfazwe yaseKorea.

• I-US ngoku ingena kunyaka we-70th yokutshixelwa kwimeko yemfazwe neNorth Korea. Lixesha lokuphelisa ukungavisisani kunye nokusombulula le mpixano.

• Isimo esingasonjululwanga sembambano sigcina amawaka eentsapho ahlukane omnye komnye. Kuya kufuneka siyiphelise imfazwe, sincede ukudibanisa iintsapho, kwaye siqalise ukuphilisa ukwahlukana okubuhlungu kule ngxabano yeminyaka engama-70.
