Ilungu leDemocratic Congress u-Pramila Jayapal, usihlalo we-Progressive Caucus, uye wahoxisa ingxelo ekhutshwe ngamalungu e-caucus, kwaye isayinwe ngamalungu angamashumi amathathu eNdlu yabaMeli. Isiteyitimenti sokuqala sibangele ukulila okukhulu kunye nokutshixiza nokutshixiza kwamazinyo phakathi kwamalungu amaninzi eDemocratic Party, kwanyanzeleka ukuba irhoxe ngokukhawuleza.
Yintoni, umntu anokuthi abuze ngokufanelekileyo, i-Progressive Caucus yathi yabangela i-angst enjalo phakathi kwe-renk-and-file Congressional Democrats? Liliphi icebiso elicaphukisayo nelikhohlo elenziwa kwingxelo eyabangela impikiswano enjalo?
Ewe, yile nto ikhakhasi yayinoloyiko lokuyicebisa: i-Progressive Caucus yacela uMongameli uJoe Biden ukuba azibandakanye kwiingxoxo norhulumente waseRussia ukuze aphelise imfazwe yakhe ne-Ukraine. Nantsi inxalenye ephambili yeleta ekhubekisayo:
"Ngenxa yentshabalalo edalwe yile mfazwe yase-Ukraine kunye nehlabathi, kunye nomngcipheko wokunyuka kwentlekele, sikholelwa ukuba kusemdleni we-Ukraine, e-United States kunye nehlabathi ukunqanda ungquzulwano oluthatha ixesha elide. Ngesi sizathu, siyakubongoza ukuba udibanise umkhosi kunye nenkxaso yezoqoqosho i-United States ibonelele i-Ukraine ngephulo lozakuzo olusebenzayo, iinzame eziphinda-phindiweyo zokufuna isakhelo esinokwenyani sokuphelisa imfazwe. "
Umntu unokuqonda ukucaphuka: kutheni uzibandakanya kulo mkhuba udidayo - idiplomacy - xa iibhombu ziya kuwenza umsebenzi? Kwaye kwicaucus eqhubela phambili ukucebisa into enjalo ekufutshane kunyulo lwaphakathi enyakeni ayinakuxolelwa! Njengoko amaRiphabhlikhi exhathisa kwiibhiliyoni ezithunyelwa eUkraine, umbono wezozakuzaku udlala ezandleni zabo! Kwaye kufuneka sihlale sikhumbula ukuba injongo yokugqibela, i-grail engcwele yalo naluphi na unyulo, kukugcinwa kwemeko, apho iqela elilawulayo lihlala lilawula.
Ukuphendula ileta ye-Progressive Caucus, uhlalutyo lwe-CNN lukhuphe isihloko esithi: 'U-Putin uye wabukela kwaye elinde lo mzuzu eWashington.' Eli nqaku lihlekisayo lithi uPutin ebebukele kwaye enethemba lokwaphuka “… UMongameli uJoe Biden kwisidingo sokwenza yonke into efunekayo ukukhusela idemokhrasi eUkraine. ” Ngoku, ngokutsho kolu hlalutyo, oko kwaphuka kubonakala. (Isihloko esithi 'idemokhrasi eUkraine' yenye yesinye isincoko).
Nceda uqaphele ukuba ingxelo ye-Progressive Caucus ayizange iphakamise ukurhoxiswa kwenkxaso yomkhosi wase-US (njengoko bekufanele ukuba kube njalo). Yayikhuthaza urhulumente wase-US ukuba adibanise loo nkxaso ngemigudu yozakuzo yokuphelisa imfazwe. Kodwa hayi, yayiyingcamango engqongqo kakhulu leyo kwaye kwafuneka irhoxiswe, kunye neengxelo eziphindaphindayo malunga nayo zithunyelwe 'ngengozi'.
Makhe sithathele ingqalelo umzuzu 'i-havoc' ingcebiso ye-Progressive Caucus, ukuba yenziwe, inokubangela:
- Inani lokufa kwamadoda, abafazi nabantwana abamsulwa lingancitshiswa. Ukuba amagosa karhulumente wase-US ebethethathethana noogxa bawo eRashiya, ukubulawa kwabantu kungaphela.
- Iziseko ezingundoqo zase-Ukraine zinokusinda ekonakalisweni ngakumbi. Iindlela, izindlu, iibhulorho kunye nezinye izakhiwo ezibalulekileyo ezihlala zimile kwaye zisebenza zinokuqhubeka zinjalo.
- Isisongelo semfazwe yenyukliya sinokuncitshiswa kakhulu. Ngelixa imfazwe yangoku iphelele eRashiya naseUkraine, imfazwe yenyukliya iya kugubungela uninzi lwehlabathi. Kufuneka kukhunjulwe ukuba ukuthetha ngemfazwe yenyukliya 'elinganiselwe' bubudenge. Nayiphi na imfazwe yenyukliya iya kubangela ukutshatyalaliswa kokusingqongileyo okungazange kubonwe ngaphambili, kunye nokufa kunye nokubandezeleka okungaziwayo okoko i-US yaqhushumbisa iHiroshima neNagasaki.
- Amandla e-NATO anokuqulathwa, ewanika isisongelo esincitshisiweyo soxolo kwihlabathi liphela. Ukwandiswa kwayo, ngoku ifudukela kumazwe ongezelelweyo, inokumiswa, inciphisa amandla emfazwe ukuba iqaliswe ngokukhawuleza phantse naphi na emhlabeni.
Kodwa hayi, iiDemokhrasi akufuneki zibonakale 'zibuthathaka' eRussia, ngakumbi kufutshane nonyulo lwaphakathi.
Sinokujonga ukuba yintoni i-17 yeebhiliyoni zeedola ezithunyelwe yi-US e-Ukraine kwi-hardware eyenza imfazwe ngaphakathi kwemida yase-US.
- Ngokumalunga ne-10% yabemi base-US bahlala phantsi komgca wentlupheko, okungenangqondo, umgangatho owenziwe yi-US. Inqanaba lentlupheko kwintsapho yabane lincinci ngaphantsi kwe-35,000 yeedola ngonyaka. Naluphi na usapho lwabane abanaloo mvuzo luya kufuna inkxaso-mali yerente, uncedo lokutya, uncedo lwemali ngezinto eziluncedo, ezothutho, ukhathalelo lwezonyango, njl. Mhlawumbi iindleko zomkhosi kufuneka zinqunywe ukuvumela abantu ukuba baphile kwinqanaba elithile lesidima e-US
- Izikolo ezininzi ezisezidolophini kulo lonke ilizwe azinazo izinto ezinjengobushushu ebusika, iimpompo zamanzi, nobunye ‘ubunewunewu’ obunjalo. Imali ethunyelwa eUkraine inokuba negalelo elikhulu ekuboneleleni ngezi mfuno.
- Abahlali bezixeko ezininzi zase-US abakwazi ukusela amanzi aphuma kwiimpompo zabo. Kuya kuthatha ngaphantsi kwe-17 yeebhiliyoni zeedola ukulungisa ezo ngxaki.
Umntu kufuneka abuze ukuba kutheni iNkongolo yase-US, nokuba ngo-2022, iyijongela phantsi ingcamango yediplomacy. Impendulo yayo yokuqala kuyo nayiphi na 'ingxaki' yamazwe ngamazwe - ehlala ibangelwa okanye iyilwe yi-US-zizoyikiso: izoyikiso zezohlwayo, izoyikiso zemfazwe. Ngeminyaka yee-1830, ebudeni beMfazwe yaseMexico namaMerika, kwathethwa ngoMongameli uPolk ukuba “wayezijongela phantsi izinto ezintle zonxibelelwano.” Oku akutshintshanga phantse iminyaka engama-200.
Umntu uyayibona imfuneko yokulalanisa kuwo nawuphi na urhulumente, kodwa ngokudabukisayo uyasilela ekusebenzeni okudityanisiweyo koko kuphunyezwayo kwisenzo sowiso-mthetho e-US Kodwa ngegama layo, i-Progressive Caucus kufuneka ingenise amatyala anenkqubela phambili kwaye ikhuphe iingxelo eziqhubela phambili. Isiteyitimenti esicatshulwe kwinxalenye engasentla asiyongcamango eyothusayo, engqongqo, enokubeka iCongress kwindlebe yayo ehlangeneyo. Ichaza nje ukuba i-US, ngenxa yezizwe ngezizwe (kwaye, lo mbhali unokongeza, ukusetyenziswa kakubi) amandla kunye nefuthe, kufuneka ubuncinane uzame ukusebenzisana norhulumente waseRashiya ukuphelisa ubutshaba obukhoyo. Inyaniso yokuba uPutin, kunye nayo yonke enye inkokeli yehlabathi, ayinaso isizathu sokuthembela kumagama okanye izenzo ze-US, ngelishwa, ngaphandle kwenqaku. I-Progressive Caucus yenze isiphakamiso, yaze yasingela phantsi nayiphi na impembelelo okanye intembeko enokuba ibenayo ngokusirhoxisa.
Olu 'lulawulo' e-US: akukho mfuneko yokwenza oko kufanelekileyo kwaye kulungile, kodwa kukho zonke izizathu zokuthetha nokwenza oko kukholisayo isiseko. Le yindlela yokuphinda unyulwe kwaye, emva kwayo yonke loo nto, kumalungu amaninzi eCongress, yile nto imalunga nayo.
