Kangangamashumi eminyaka, uluntu lwase-US lwalubonakala lungakhathali kuninzi lokubandezeleka okubi kwemfazwe. Imithombo yeendaba edibeneyo yayiyiphepha kakhulu, yenza imfazwe ibukeke njengomdlalo wevidiyo, ngamanye amaxesha ikhankanya ukubandezeleka kwemikhosi yase-US, kwaye kanye kwinyanga eluhlaza okwesibhakabhaka yachukumisa ukubhubha kweqaqobana labemi basekhaya ngokungathi ukubulawa kwabo luhlobo oluthile lokuphambuka. Uluntu lwase-US luxhaswa ngemali kwaye luvuyiswa okanye lunyamezele iminyaka kunye neminyaka yeemfazwe zegazi, kwaye yaphuma ilawula ukukholelwa ngobuxoki ukuba ipesenti enkulu yokufa kwemfazwe yimikhosi, ukuba ipesenti enkulu yokufa kwemfazwe kwiimfazwe zase-US yimikhosi yase-US, Iimfazwe zenzeka kwindawo engaqondakaliyo ebizwa ngokuba "lithafa ledabi," kwaye ngaphandle kokungaqhelekanga abantu ababulawa yimikhosi yase-US ngabantu abafuna ukubulala kanye njengabo banikwe izigwebo zokufa kwiinkundla zase-US (ngaphandle kwabo bakhululwa kamva).
Kangangamashumi eminyaka, abameli boxolo abalumkileyo nabanobuchule bacebise ukuba bangazikhathazi ngokukhankanya izigidi zamadoda, abafazi, nabantwana abaxhelwayo, benzakeleyo, bangabi namakhaya, boyikeka, bonzakele, batyhefwe, okanye balambe ngenxa yeemfazwe zase-US. Akukho mntu uya kubakhathalela, saxelelwa, ngoko ukubakhankanya kwakungayi kubanceda ngokwenene. Kuya kuba bubulumko ukukhankanya kuphela imikhosi yase-US, nokuba iqhubela phambili inkolelo yobuxoki yokuba iimfazwe azikho icala elinye lokuxhela abantu. Kuya kuba bubulumko ngakumbi, saxelelwa, ukuba sigxile kwiindleko zezemali zeemfazwe, nangona urhulumente wase-US eqamba nje ukuba yimalini na ayifunayo kwiimfazwe ezininzi. Saxelelwa ukuba, imali yinto abantu abanokukhathala ngayo.
Kakade ke, ingxaki ecacileyo yayingeyiyo le nto sasithetha ngayo, kodwa kukuba sasingavunyelwa kumabonwakude. Ewe kunjalo, umndilili wase-US ayingomntu ongenantliziyo. Ngokuqinisekileyo, abantu bayakhathala ngalo lonke ixesha ngabantu abakude nabahlukeneyo. Xa amaxhoba enkanyamba evezwa kumajelo eendaba njengabafanelekile, abantu banikela. Xa kutyholwa indlala kwindalo, imali iyaphuma. Xa umhlaza uboniswa uvela kwindawo ecocekileyo, engangcoliswanga, ndiyakucela nje ukuba ufumane indawo ebumelwaneni engayi kubaleka umdyarho wokuwunyanga. Ke, ngokwethiyori, bendihlala ndikholelwa ukuba abantu baseUnited States banokukhathalela amaxhoba emfazwe. Kanye njengoko babenokuthi "Sonke singamaFrentshi" xa ibhombu iqhushumbe eFransi, banokuthi "Sonke singabaseYemeni" xa imikhosi yase-US kunye ne-Saudi igrogrisa abantwana baseYemeni, okanye ibhengeze "Sonke singama-Afghan" xa uJoe. I-Biden yeba iibhiliyoni zeedola ezifunekayo ukuze uphile.
Uya kuyibona eyona ngxaki, kunjalo. Akukho nto injengokoyikiswa ngumkhosi wase-US okanye umongameli wase-US uba kubantu basemzini. Phantse akukho mntu, eneneni, nowaziyo ukuba yeyiphi imibala yeflegi yaseYemeni - kancinci kakhulu abayincamathisele kuyo yonke indawo. Kwimidiya yase-US ezo zinto azikho. Kodwa ukukhathalelwa ngamaxhoba emfazwe kukho. Ndikhumbula ngokucacileyo ukuba bangakanani abantu abakhathalele iintsana ezingeyonyani ezisusiweyo kwi-incubators ukuze kuqhutywe imfazwe ye-gulf yokuqala, okanye impembelelo ebangelwa ngamavidiyo amaxhoba e-ISIS. "I-Rwanda" yayiyingxoxo engenangqondo yemfazwe yaseLibya ngokuchanekileyo kuba abantu baqondwa ukuba bayawakhathalela amaxhoba emfazwe xa kufuneka. AmaSiriya abe ngamaxhoba emfazwe afanelekileyo xa icala elingalunganga lityholwa ngobuxoki ngokusebenzisa uhlobo olungalunganga lwesixhobo. Ukukhathalela amaxhoba emfazwe kwakusoloko kuyinto enokwenzeka, kwaye ngoku sele kugqabhukile kumbindi weqonga. Ngoku sibona, sijolise kubantu baseUkraine, inkxalabo kunye novelwano olwaluhlala lunokwenzeka kubantwana abancinci kunye noomakhulu ababulawa yimfazwe e-Iraq okanye amanye amazwe amaninzi.
Kwabo bethu inkcaso yemfazwe yayisoloko iqhutywa ngokuyinkxalabo ngamaxhoba ayo ngokuthe ngqo - inyuswe yinkxalabo yamaxhoba okuphambukisa izixhobo ezininzi emfazweni endaweni yezinto eziluncedo - eli lithuba lokuthetha ngokunyanisekileyo. Ukuthetha ngokunyaniseka kusoloko kuphembelela kunokuthetha ngendlela ekhohlisayo. Ngaphandle kokuba wenze isigqibo sokuvuyisana nokubulawa kwabantu abaninzi baseRashiya, nali ithuba lokuthetha kuluntu olutya amajelo eendaba: EWE! EWE! Sikuwe! Imfazwe iyoyikeka! Imfazwe ayiziphathi kakuhle! Akukho nto imbi njengemfazwe! Kufuneka sibuphelise obu buqaba! Kufuneka siwubhangise nokuba ngubani na owenzayo okanye kutheni. Kwaye siya kuyenza loo nto kuphela ukuba sifunda amandla esenzo esingenabundlobongela ukuxhathisa.
Izigidi zabantu baseRashiya nabangengabo abaseRashiya bakholelwa ukuba iRashiya iyazikhusela kwaye nantoni na eyenzayo ifanelekile. Izigidi zabantu baseUkraine kunye nabangengabo base-Ukrainians bakholelwa ukuba nantoni na eyenzayo iyakhusela kwaye iyathetheleleka. Iingxoxo zahluke kakhulu, kwaye akufuneki sibeke isidima idiocy yokuchasa ukuzilinganisa. Akukho nto ilinganayo okanye inokulinganiswa ngezenzo zomntu. Kodwa iRussia yayinezinye iindlela ezingezizo zokumelana nokwanda kwe-NATO kwaye yakhetha ubundlobongela. I-Ukraine yayinezinye iindlela ezingezizo ezichasene nohlaselo lwaseRussia, kwaye oomabonwakude base-US abasixeleli ukuba abantu base-Ukraine bakhethe kangakanani na, ngenkxaso encinci okanye umbutho, ukuzama.
Ukuba sonke siyasinda kule ngxaki, esona sifundo kufuneka sisisuse kuso kukuba abantu baphila phantsi kwezo zibane zintle kangangokuba umabonakude ethetha ooh and aah over. Kwaye ukuba aba bantu babonakala bengabalulekanga kangako, sinokuzama ukucinga ngabo ngokungathi ngabantu baseUkraine. Emva koko sinokusebenzela ukuqonda ukuba utshaba ayingobantu abathi amagama abo aqhushumba aqhushumba. Utshaba yimfazwe.
