"EWashington, kubonakala ngathi ingaba yintoni ingxaki, impendulo kukuqhushumba."
Ubhale njalo UStephen Zunes, emva kwesenzo sokuqala sokubulala kukaJoe Biden njengoMongameli. . . Uxolo, isenzo sakhe sokuqala somkhosi okhuselayo: ukuqhushumisa iposi eSyria kwiveki ephelileyo, kubulala i-22 yeentshaba zethu. Eli nyathelo, ewe, liya kulityalwa ngokukhawuleza. "I-United States iqhushumbe iSyria ngaphezulu kwama-20,000 XNUMX kule minyaka isibhozo idlulileyo," utshilo uZunes, esithi:
“IUnited States yaqalisa ukuqhushumbisa la mazwe akudala kwiminyaka engama-30 eyadlulayo, ekuqaleni kweMfazwe yaseGulf. I-US iqhubekile nokuqhushumisa i-Iraq kunye namazwe angabamelwane ukusukela oko. Ngalo lonke ixesha, sixelelwe ukuba ukwenza njalo kuya kukhusela umdla waseMelika kwaye kuncede ukuzisa uxolo kunye nozinzo kwingingqi. Ukanti sihlandlo ngasinye sokuhlasela kweenqwelo-moya kuzise ukubandezeleka okungakumbi, ubundlobongela obuninzi, ukhuseleko oluncinci kunye nokungazinzi okukhulu. ”
Kubizwa-ngesiqhelo ngemfazwe engapheliyo. Xa ndicinga ngale nto, njenge Ummi waseMelika, ngenxa kaThixo, ndihlala ndibambe ongezantsi kwaye ndikhawuleze ndasebenza. Andinalo nelizwi kulo mbandela nawe awunjalo. Nantsi indlela ekuyiyo. Sinikela ngetriliyoni okanye iidola ngonyaka ukuya kwezomkhosi. UThixo weMfazwe ngumlawuli wethu, kwaye umsebenzi womntu esimnyulayo njengomongameli kukuqokelela yonke into esiyenzayo yemfazwe kulungelelwaniso olunobunkunkqele, aka, ubudlelwane boluntu. UGeorge W. Bush usinike abemi imiyalelo yethu yokumatsha kumashumi amabini eminyaka eyadlulayo: Yiyokuthenga. Kwinkoliso yabantu baseMelika, imfazwe iguqulwe nje yaba yinto ethe cwaka, kunye nokusweleka kwabantu ngokulula ngaphandle komonakalo wesivumelwano. Imfazwe ayinanto yakwenza nathi.
Ngaphandle koko, kunjalo, iyenza ngendlela enye. Uhlobo lwemfazwe kukuzala imfazwe: ukukhulisa inkathazo, ukwenza izinto zibe mbi ngakumbi. Imfazwe ihlala ifika ekhaya.
Kwaye ngequbuliso ndizifumana ndicinga nge-Sgt. UTimothy McVeigh, ijoni laseMelika elalisebenza ngokugqwesa kwimfazwe yokuqala yaseGulf, eyasungulwa nguGeorge HW Bush ngo-1991. Kwiminyaka emine kamva, ecaphukile ngenxa yezenzo ezahlukeneyo zikarhulumente, uMcVeigh waya kulwa nelizwe lakhe, evuthela i-Murrah Federal Building e-Oklahoma City ngesichumisi-kunye nokubaleka-ibhombu yombane. Yena kunye nabo babulala abantu abayi-168, kubandakanya abantwana abali-19. Kodwa wayenodumo lokwazi ukuzikhusela nakuphi na ukuzisola ngenxa yokufa ngokubachaza kwimikhosi yomkhosi. Yayingumonakalo wesibambiso.
Ndingalibonisa njani ilungelo lokuzisa ilifa elibi likaMcVeigh!
Ndikwenza oko ndibuhlungu, ndiziva ngathi ekuphela kwendlela yokuphazamisa ukusebenza kwengqondo kunye (ewe) nokubanjwa kwemali nguThixo wemfazwe kurhulumente waseMelika kwaye uninzi lwabemi bayo kukuphazamisa ukukhusela emfazweni. Ubundlobongela obulungileyo abungcono kunobundlobongela obubi. Ubundlobongela bethu abungcono kunabo. Ukubulala kukubulala.
Phambi kokuba sithethe ngoxolo-lukhulule kwindlela yalo elula ("asinakuhlala sonke nje sihamba sonke?") Kwaye siqale ukuyicingela, ngokwahlukeneyo nangokuhlangeneyo, kuko konke ukuntsonkotha kwayo - ndiyakholelwa ukuba kufuneka sizibone izenzo Imfazwe ngento abayiyo, oko kukuthi, babone ngendlela amaxhoba ababona ngayo. Kufuneka sithathe ngokobuqu.
Le ayisiyondlela iqhelekileyo yemidiya yethu. Ke ndifikelela ngaphaya kwesiqhelo, ndicaphula umhlobo kunye nomzabalazo woxolo wexesha elide Kathy Kelly, ophuma entliziyweni njengoko ebhala malunga neminyaka engama-30 yaseMelika ibangele isihogo eMbindi Mpuma, ukusuka kuHola wendlela osweleyo ukuya kwibhombu yothusayo e-Iraq kuye. . .
Ukujonga into yokuba uPapa Francis ucwangciselwe ukuba atyelele i-Iraq kule nyanga-utyelelo lokuqala lobupapa e-Iraq- ubhala athi: “Kodwa esazi isicelo sakhe sobuciko nesokunyaniseka sokuphelisa iimfazwe nokumisa urhwebo lwezixhobo oluyingozi, ndinqwenela ukuba guqa ngamadolo uze uphuze umhlaba kwindawo yokuhlala yase-Amiriyah eBaghdad. ”
Owu Thixo wam, uAmiriyah - esinye isenzo somonakalo wesibambiso, ogqithileyo eMcVeigh, awenziwa ngabanqolobi abangabodwa kodwa ngumkhosi wase-US ngoSuku lweValentine ngo-1991, ngexesha leMfazwe yokuqala yeGulf. U-Amiriyah wayeyindlu ye-Baghdad apho amakhulu abantu abalekela khona ukukhusela ngexesha lokuhlaselwa kwebhombu e-US. Into eyenzekileyo yeyokuba, ezimbini zebhombu zethu ezinobulumko zadlula kumngxunya wokungenisa umoya ngaphakathi, zayitshabalalisa zabulala abantu abangaphezu kwama-400, uninzi lwabo yayingabafazi nabantwana. Uninzi lwazo lufuthaniselwe okanye lwatshiswa lwasweleka njengoko iqondo lobushushu kule ndlu lingazange licingwe.
Ungakhathazeki, nangona kunjalo. Kumashumi amathathu eminyaka, injengele yase-US, ixoxa ngokuqhushumba ne Aljazeera, wathi le ndlu kwakucingelwa ukuba yindawo yezomkhosi, ichaza: "Kwenzekile ukwenzakala kwabantu, le yayiyeyona nto kujoliswe kuyo emkhosini, yabethwa, yatshatyalaliswa yapheliswa kwishishini- kwaye akukho monakalo mncinci."
Uyazi, ngabantu abangama-400 kuphela.
UKelly ubhale wathi: "Ndinqwenela ukuba uMongameli uJoe Biden angadibana noPapa kwaye amcele ukuba eve ukuvuma kwakhe."
Oku kuya kuba sisiqalo soxolo, oko kukuthi, ukuqala kolwazi lwesizwe. Thina, ndithetha ngalo lonke uluntu, sijamelene neengozi ezinkulu kule minyaka izayo, ngakumbi enxulumene notshintsho lwemozulu; kufuneka zijongiwe. Kodwa hayi, akufuneki siqale ukukhukhula iinkanyamba. Izoyikiso zethu zokwenyani azizukusombululwa, kodwa ngokuqinisekileyo ziya kwandiswa, ngokulwa.
Nangona kunjalo, ukusilela kwimeko kaKathy Kelly eBaghdad, siqala njani ukugqitha kwisimo sengqondo somkhosi. . . kunye nelophu yokuhamba kwemali eyenza ukuba iqhubeke inenzuzo kwabo basemagunyeni?
As Lindsay Koshgarian Ubhala athi: "Umkhosi wase-US ufikelela kwihlabathi jikelele, malunga nama-800 amazwe afakwa emkhosini phantse isiqingatha samazwe ehlabathi, kwaye athabatha ngaphezulu kwesiqingatha sohlahlo-lwabiwo mali olwabelweyo yiCongress minyaka le. Qho kwiminyaka elishumi okanye emibini, kukho izizathu ezintsha zayo yonke le nto, kukho nesoyikiso esitsha. ”
Ngaba uBiden ungumongameli ngentando kunye nesibindi sokuqalisa ukumelana nale nto? Thina, bantu, kufuneka sicele umngeni kuye ukuba abe ngumongameli, ukuhambisa amazwi abo bangakwenza oko ukuba banako - abo baswelekileyo, eAmiriyah nakwezinye iindawo ezininzi ekujoliswe kuzo, kubandakanya ne-Murrah Federal Building.
