IBhunga lesiXeko saseNew York libambe iingxoxo ezivulekileyo zengqondo nezomthetho izolo, ngomthetho oza kufuna ukuba isiXeko saseNew York sikhulule imali yepenshini kuyo nayiphi na into yokurhweba ngabantu ngezixhobo zenyukliya, kwaye sibize urhulumente wase-US ukuba asayine kwaye iqinisekise isiVumelwano soThintelo lweZixhobo zeNyukliya (i-TPNW), eyamkelwe ngamazwe ali-122 ngo-2017. Iyakumisela neKhomishini ekhethekileyo yokuphonononga indima ye-NYC ekwakheni ibhombu kunye neentsika zeSixeko zokuyichasa, kubandakanya ukuzibhengeza indawo engenazixhobo zenyukliya, ekhupha abantu abasisigidi ngo-1982 eCentral Park, ukucoca iindawo ezibengezelelweyo ezingcoliswe zizilingo zenyukliya, kunye nokubamba iingxoxo ze-UN zesivumelwano esitsha esiphumelele uMkhankaso weHlabathi wokuPhelisa izixhobo zeNyukliya, ICAN, a Umvuzo weNobel woxolo. Ababizi ukwenziwa kwebhombu ye-athomu kwiProjekthi yeManhattan ngelize!
Elona candelo likhuthazayo lokuva yayiyinkqubo evulekileyo neyedemokhrasi, apho wonke umntu wayenokuthi, wenza ngokwenene ungqina. Ngaphezulu kwama-60 abantu abathathe ithuba lokwabelana ngobuchule kunye namava kuyo yonke imiba yebhombu yenyukliya, kubandakanya nezicelo ezihamba-hambayo ezivela kubantu bokuqala baseNew York, isizwe saseLenape, ukugcina nokuhlonipha uMama woMhlaba. Ubungqina obubhaliweyo buza kuthunyelwa kwiwebhusayithi yeBhunga.
Ubudlelwane obulungileyo kwigumbi lokuva leBhunga, phakathi koluntu kunye namalungu karhulumente, kufuneka busikhuthaze ukuba silandele emva kwevoti, ene-supermajority ngoku eyixhasayo kwaye inokuthi ibe nokuhamba ngokulula. Singacela iBhunga, nje ukuba livote, njengenxalenye yesithembiso sokucela urhulumente wase-US ukuba atyikitye kwaye aqinisekise isivumelwano sokuvalwa, ukuba aqale ngokunxibelelana neeSenators ze-NY kunye nabathunywa beCongress. Mhlawumbi iBhunga linokubabiza entlanganisweni kwaye babacenge ukuba batyikitye ipalamente ye-ICAN isibambiso kunye nokuqonda kwengqondo malunga nendlela iCongress engasiphumeza ngayo isenzo.
Enye indlela eya phambili yayikukuqinisekisa igqiza le-NY laseKhongolose ukuba liqalise umnxeba wokuba umthetho umise kwaye unqumamise nakuphi na ukuphuhliswa kwezixhobo zenyukliya kunye nokuhlaziya okuchazwe kwitriliyoni enye yesivumelwano esenziwe ngu-Obama kwaye uTrump uqhubeke kwimizi-mveliso emibini yebhombu, inyukliya izixhobo, kunye neenkqubo ezintsha zokuhambisa ngenqwelomoya, ngenqanawa, nangendawo. Kwaye ngexesha lokuqandusela kulo naluphi na uphuhliso olutsha, ukuya kwingxoxo kwangoko neRussia kwaye ubongoze omabini la mazwe ukuba aqalise indlela yokuthotyelwa kwe-TPNW esandula ukwenziwa ebonelela ngamanyathelo ngendlela izixhobo zenyukliya ezinokuthi zijoyine ngayo.
Ukusenza siqhubeke phambili kule ndlela, mhlawumbi kufanele ukuba sifuna ukwenza unxibelelwano nabemi baseMoscow naseSt Petersburg, njengoko amazwe ethu amabini ephethe i-13,000 yezixhobo ezikhoyo zehlabathi zeebhombu zenyukliya ezili-14,000. Singacela iBhunga leSixeko sethu ukuba libe sisixeko esingudade kunye nezo zixeko zijolise kuzo zombini iidolophu zaseRussia, ngalo lonke elixa imijukujelwa yamandla enyukliya engama-2500 ijolise ekutshabalalaneni, ngelixa itshabalalisa bonke ubomi emhlabeni kwinkqubo, nokuba Inxalenye encinci yamandla abo entlekele anokuze akhutshwe! Imikhosi ibingathi iyahambelana nabantu izolo, kwaye lixesha lokuba ugcine umfutho.
UBUNGQINA BUKA ALICE SLATER:
Malungu aBekekileyo weBhunga lesiXeko saseNew York
Igama lam ndinguAlice Slater kwaye ndikwiBhodi ye World Beyond War kunye noMmeli we-UN weSiseko soXolo lweNyukliya. Ndinombulelo ongazenzisiyo kweli Bhunga ngokunyuka phezulu kwipleyiti kwaye ndithathe inyathelo eliyimbali lokuphelisa le bhombu! Ndazalelwa eBronx ndaza ndaya eQueens College, xa izifundo zazingangeedola ezintlanu kuphela kwisemester, ngeminyaka yoo-1950s ngexesha leRed Scare elibi lexesha likaMcCarthy. Ekuphakameni kweMfazwe ebandayo sasineebhombu zenyukliya ezingama-70,000 emhlabeni. Ngoku kukho i-14,000 malunga ne-13,000 yeebhombu ezigcinwe yi-US kunye ne-Russia. Amanye amazwe asixhenxe axhobile ngenyukliya-aneebhombu ezili-1,000 XNUMX phakathi kwawo. Kungoko kuthi kuthi naseRussia ukuba siqale sixoxisane malunga nokupheliswa kwabo njengoko kuchaziwe kwiSivumelwano esitsha. Ngeli xesha, akukho nasinye sezixhobo zenyukliya esichazayo kunye namaqabane ethu e-US kwi-NATO, Japan, Australia nase-South Korea ayixhasayo.
Kuyothusa ukwazi, ukuba iRussia ibisoloko ingumcebisi ozimiseleyo wezivumelwano zokuqinisekiswa kwenyukliya kunye nokungekho semipu, kwaye, ngelishwa, lilizwe lethu, ekubambeni izinto ezomkhosi, eyezilumkiso nxamnye ne-Eisenhower. umdyarho weengalo zenyukliya kunye neRussia, kususela kwixesha uTruman asikhaba isicelo sikaStalin sokubeka ibhombu phantsi kolawulo lwe-UN, ukuya kuReagan, Bush, Clinton, kunye no-Obama begatya iziphakamiso zikaGorbachev noPutin, ezibhaliweyo kubungqina bam obungenisiweyo, ukuba uTrump ahambe ngaphandle kwe-INF Unyango.
UWalt Kelly, umzobi wekhathuni we-Pogo comic strow ngexesha le-Red Scare ka-1950s, uPogo uthi, "Sidibene notshaba kwaye nguye kuthi!"
Ngoku sinethuba lokuphumelela kwizenzo ezisisiseko sehlabathi kwizixeko nakumazwe ukuze sibuye umva ekuwiseni umhlaba wethu kwintlekele yenyukliya. Okwangoku, kukho i-2500 yemijukujelwa yenyukliya e-US nase-Russia ejolise kuzo zonke izixeko zethu ezikhulu. Ngokuphathelele kwisiXeko saseNew York, njengoko ingoma isitsho, "Ukuba singayenza apha, siya kuyenza naphi na!" kwaye kuyamangalisa kwaye kuyakhuthaza ukuba uninzi lweBhunga lesiXeko likulungele ukongeza ilizwi lalo kwihlabathi elinenyukliya! Enkosi kakhulu!!

INew York isondela kufutshane kwiNukliya Divestment
By UTim Wallis
Enye yeepaneli ezininzi ezingqina phambi kweBhunga lesiXeko saseNew York (ukusuka ekhohlo ukuya ekunene): uMfu TK Nakagaki, Heiwa Foundation; UMichael Gorbachev, isihlobo sikaMikhail; U-Anthony Donovan, umbhali / umbhali; Sally Jones, Intshukumo yoxolo NY; I-Rosemarie Pace, Pax Christi NY; UMitchie Thatuchi, amabali kaHibakusha. IPHEPHA: UBrendan Fay
Nge-29 kaJanuwari 2020: IsiXeko saseNew York sishukumise inyathelo elinye kufutshane nokusiya kwizixhobo zenyukliya kule veki, emva kwekomiti edibeneyo yokuvalelwa kwiholo yesiXeko. Xa kwakuqala ukuxoxwa kwetyala, inkcaso yayikuphela kwe-Ofisi kaSodolophu ngobuchule, kwaye ikomiti yayisesona sivoti sinye sinye sobuninzi beevoti. Kodwa kukhangeleka ngathi yimigudu engapheliyo yeqela elincinci labakhankanyi abasuka kwisiXeko saseNew York, abazibiza ngokuba yi-NYCAN, sele bezakuvelisa iziqhamo, emva kweminyaka emibini yokubanjwa ngamandla kweBhunga leSixeko.
Emva kokuva ubungqina kubantu abamalunga nama-60, iOfisi kaSodolophu yahamba ngokukhawuleza ukubhengeza ukuba bazakufumana “indlela” ukusombulula ezobuchwephesha, kwaye iLungu leBhunga uFernando Cabrera wabhengeza inkxaso yakhe yokugxothwa. Ngenkxaso kaCabrera, ezi zigqibo zibini ngoku zinobungqina obuninzi bokuxhasa inkxaso kwiBhunga lesiXeko saseNew York, kwaye ngokurhoxa kwenkcaso kwi-ofisi kaSodolophu baphantse bafika ngamanye amaxesha kwiiveki ezizayo.
Eyokuqala kwezi tyala zimbini, yaziswa lilungu leBhunga uDaniel Dromm, yi-1621, efuna ukuba kusekwe iKomiti yeNgcebiso ukuze iphande kwaye inike ingxelo ngeNew York City njengendawo “engenazxhobo zenyukliya,” njengeNew York. ISixeko besisusela ngo-1983. Okwesibini, u-RES 976, wacela iSixeko Comptroller ukuba isuse imali yepenshini yabasebenzi bakarhulumente kwiSixeko saseNew York "ukuthintela nakuphi na ukuboniswa kwemali ezinkampini ezibandakanyekayo kwimveliso nasekugcinweni kwezixhobo zenyukliya." sicela urhulumente wobumbano ukuba axhase kwaye ajoyine iSivumelwano sowama-2017 sokuThintelwa kwezixhobo zenyukliya.
Ilungu leBhunga uDromms uthe "womelele" bubungqina obuvela kwimibutho eyahlukeneyo nakubantu abaphakathi kweminyaka eli-19 kuye kweli-90, bevela kubazukulwana beLizwe laseMnape iLizwe laseManhattan ukuya kumalungu ePhumelele uNobel Peace Prize Ukupheliswa kwezixhobo zenyukliya.
Ezinye izithethi zivela eNew Yorkers ezinekratshi kubantu abasinde eHiroshima naseNagasaki, kwijoni elabandakanyeka kuvavanyo oluninzi lwebhombu yenyukliya eNevada ukuya kwisalamane sikaMikhail Gorbachev, kubavukeli abagugileyo abathi baphinde bachitha iminyaka ejele ngenxa yokubhikica izixhobo zenyukliya koobhanki nakwiingcali zotyalo mali. Ukuchaza ukuba kutheni ukukhutshwa kwezixhobo zenyukliya kuluncedo ngokwenene kwiiphothifoliyo zabo.
UManhattan, oyimbalasane yokuyilwa kwezixhobo zenyukliya, usaphethwe luchaphazeleko lweradiyo ukususela ngaloo mihla. U-Teamster ukhumbule esebenza kwindawo yokugcina izinto apho umgca uphezulu ngoku, apho iibaraka zazirhola ubushushu kwaye zinyibilikisa i-asphalt phantsi. Kwakukho ukukhankanywa okuninzi ngoDo lweMini yeDoomsday, eyaqala ngo-1947 ngoososayensi beProjekthi yeManhattan, ngoku "ebekwe" kufutshane "ezinzulwini zobusuku" ngalo naliphi na ixesha embalini.
IManhattan ibilikhaya kubomi bomntu iminyaka engama-3,000. Kodwa ubungqina bobuchwephesha bukwenza kwacaca ukuba isixhobo esinye senyukliya sinokucima bonke abantu, izilwanyana, ubugcisa kunye noyilo, nokuba unomathotholo uya kuhlala ngaphezulu kweminyaka engama-3,000 kwixa elizayo. Ewe, isiXeko saseNew York sesona sijolise ekuhlaseleni inyukliya.
Ubungqina obubhaliweyo buhanjisiwe ngabantu abavela kwihlabathi liphela, kubandakanya iOfisi yeDalai Lama, kunye noMmeli wase-US u-Eleanor Holmes Norton wase-DC, otyala lakhe i-HR 2419 liza kuxhasa ngezimali izixhobo zenyukliya zase-US zitshintshe irhafu yomhlawuli werhafu itekhnoloji eluhlaza, imisebenzi, kunye nokuncitshiswa kwendlala.
Nangona ipenshoni yeSixeko saseNew York ingaphantsi kwesigidi sezigidi ezingama-500 zeedola kutyalo-mali kwishishini lezixhobo zenyukliya, isinye kwishumi inqanaba lotyalo-mali kwizibaso zefosili, ukuhanjiswa kweNew York kuya kuba negalelo elikhulu kwintshukumo yehlabathi yokupheliswa kwezixhobo zenyukliya nokubeka uxinzelelo lwezezimali iinkampani ezinoxanduva.
IsiXeko saseNew York songamela iimali zepenshoni ezintlanu, eziphakathi kwazo zimele inkqubo yepenshini yenkulumbuso yoluntu kweli lizwe, kutyalo-mali olungaphezulu kweebhiliyoni ezingama-200 zeerandi. Ngo-2018, iComptroller yeSixeko yabhengeza ukuba isixeko siqalise inkqubo yeminyaka emihlanu yokukhupha imali yepension kwi-5 yezigidi zebhiliyoni kwishishini lokugcina ipetroli. Ukudilizwa kwezixhobo zenyukliya yinto eyenzeka mva nje, kukonyuswa ngo-2017 kwiSivumelwano seZizwe eziManyeneyo sokuThintela izixhobo.
Ukuza kuthi ga ngoku, iingxowa-mali ezimbini zepenshoni ezinkulu ehlabathini, iNgxowa-mali yoMgaqo-nkqubo waseNorway kunye ne-ABP yaseNetherlands, bazibophelele ekubalekeni kwimveliso yezixhobo zenyukliya. Amanye amaziko emali eYurophu naseJapan, kubandakanya iDtchebank kunye neResona Holdings ajoyine ngaphezulu kwe-36 ezinye eziye zagqiba ekubeni zibaleke izixhobo zenyukliya. E-US, izixeko ezifana neBerkeley, CA, Takoma Park, MD kunye neNorthampton, i-MA, ziye zatyhoboza, kunye ne-Amalgamated Bank yaseNew York kunye ne-Green Century Fund eBoston.
