Incwadi kaRonan Farrow Imfazwe ngoxolo: Ukuphela kweDipitalati kunye nokunyuka kwe-Impembelelo yaseMerika Uhlaziye iziqephu ezivela kwi-Obama-Trump military of policy yase-US yangaphandle. Nangona iincwadi ziqala kunye kwaye zithengiswa ngebali likaTrump ukukhwela ezininzi izidibanisi eziphambili kunye nokushiya izikhundla ezingazalwanga, ubuninzi bezinto ezikuyo zivela kwi-Trump ngaphambi, Ixesha lika-Obama kunye nenkqubela ye-Bush-time of diplomacy njengento ehlukileyo imfazwe nezixhobo zokuthengisa.
Ukwahlula phakathi kokuqesha abadibanisi abaneemvo zabo ezivunyelwe ukuba zixhomekeke kuphela xa zivumelana nePentagon kwaye zingaqeshanga kuzo zonke aziyibukhali obucacileyo njengoko abantu bangacinga. Njengoko kukwahlula phakathi kweedrones ezitshisa umlilo kubantu abangaziwa xa i-schmuck ihlwempu iyalwe ukuba iqhube iqhosha kunye ne-drones ezenza isigqibo sokuba nini ukuzitshisa yonke yazo, umbuzo wokuba ungenazo izidibaniselwano ungeyonto ephawulekayo kodwa unokwenza ulwahlulo oluncinane emhlabeni.
Farrow angavuma ngokuvisisana novavanyo lwam, kodwa ubhala njengomntu okholelwa ukuba i-United States isabela kwiintsongelo zaseMntla Korea, kunokuba ilandelelanise, kwaye isebenze ngokufanelekileyo ukuba "iqulethe" iinjongo ze-Iranian "ye-hegemony zone" kunokuzama ihegemoni kuzo zonke iindleko.
Ngoxa u-Obama wayengumongameli, iSebe likaRhulumente lincede ukuphula zonke iirekhodi zokuthengisa izixhobo, i-United States ibhoxe amazwe amaninzi, i-US kunye ne-NATO yabhubhisa i-Libya, i-drone iimfazwe zazingena ziphumo eziyingozi, isenzo esinzulu kwisimo sezulu sasinokutshatyalaliswa ngokucophelela, kwaye imikhosi yase-US yanda kwiindawo ezininzi ze-Afrika ne-Asia. Ukuphumelela kwesithsaba esibizwa ngokuba yi-Iran Isivumelwano seNyukliya kwakungekho uhlobo olululo lwamalungelo oluntu, uxolo, ubulungisa okanye intsebenziswano. Kunoko, kwakuyimveliso engadingekanga neyongenangqondo ye-propaganda yase-US eyenza ingozi engamanga evela e-Iran, inkolelo enokuthi iphumelele kwisivumelwano.
Inxalenye enkulu yeencwadi zikaFarrow ngumfanekiso kaRichard Holbrooke njengomqambi onamandla-kodwa ophazamisekileyo ukukhuthaza ukudibanisa i-diplomacy. Nguyena uRichard Holbrooke ofanayo, kwafuneka ndizikhumbuze, ngubani owamxelela iCongress ukuba umsebenzi weSebe lika-Afghanistan e-Afghanistan kwakuza kuxhasa umkhosi. Lo ngumntu ofanayo owathi ukuba iUnited States iphelile imfazwe, i-Taliban iza kusebenza kunye ne-al Qaeda eyayiza kubeka ingozi kwi-United States-ngelixa livuma ukuba i-al Qaeda yayingekho e-Afghanistan, ukuba iiTaliban ziya akunakwenzeka ukuba asebenze kunye ne-al Qaeda, kwaye i-al Qaeda inokucwangcisa ulwaphulo-mthetho naphi na emhlabeni, akukho nto ikhethekileyo ngomoya we-Afghan ngenjongo.
Ebuzwa kwi-Senate yase-United States kwi-2010, unyaka owafa ngayo, yintoni ehlabathini ayenayo kunye nantoni na ekupheleni kweAfghanistan, i-Holbrooke yahluleka ngokuphindaphindiweyo ukuvelisa impendulo. Oku kungachaza ukuguqulwa kwakhe kokufa kunye namazwi akhe okugqibela kumgqirha wakhe ogqirha: "Kufuneka unqumle le mpi e-Afghanistan." Njengokuba ugqirha angenza oko akufuni ukudlala naluphi na indima kuyo, okanye ubuncinane akakwazanga ukudlala nayiphi na indima ngaphakathi. Kunzima ukumbona u-Holbrooke njengolukhuni uxolo xa sikhumbula ukuba nguyena mntu ofanayo kwi-1999 iimfuno eziphakanyiswe ngenjongo ukubandakanya ukuba yiyiphi i-Serbia ayayize yamkele, ukuze i-NATO ingaqalisa ukuqhuma ibhomu.
Umncinane esinokuthi yinto yokuba uHolbrooke wayeqeshwe njenge-diplomate, umsebenzi onokubakho ukukhetha ukuthula esikhundleni somfazwe. Kwaye akukho mntu wamthabatha. Ngoko, ngoku kufuneka silindele uxolo lwabantu abaqeshwe ukulwa.
Kodwa isicatshulwa sokuba iSebe likaRhulumente sele libandakanyekile okanye lide libandakanyeka ekuxhaseni uxolo kunzima ukugwinya ngenxa yokuba akukho neakhawunti ebomini ngaphakathi kwiSebe likaRhulumente linokuqhathaniswa nokuhlangana kwethu kunye nobomi ngokwalo njengoko behlulwe kuthi I-WikiLeaks ngendlela yezo zixhobo.
Kuyathakazelisa, ngokuqinisekileyo, ukufunda malunga neengxaki zabantu abafuna ukubonelela ngokwenene ngoncedo lwabantu kodwa abafunyenwe nabo bafuna ukuba bangabandakanywa esidlangalaleni ne-United States ngenxa yokungathandwa kwabo. Kodwa imfuneko yokumanga kubenzi bemfazwe yinto esiye yabonwa esidlangalaleni. Kwaye iicandelo zeSebe likaRhulumente zityhila iziko elixhalalisa abantu, idemokhrasi, uxolo, ubulungisa kunye nokulawulwa komthetho.
Isisombululo asikho, ndicinga, ukukrazula "ukungahambi kakuhle!" Kunye nokudanisa kwingcwaba yokudibanisa. Nangona ukuphuma kwindlela kwaye uvumele iiKorea ezimbini, kunye nabanye abalingane abaninzi, ukuba bahlanganyele kuyo. Ekugqibeleni, into esiyidingayo kukuba siqaphele idiplomacy njengento engahambelani neengxabano zemfazwe kunye nokhetho lwangaphambili kule ndlela yokugqibela.
