Isizathu Sendlela Yokuletha Ukuhamba Kwezemvelo Nokuthula Kanye

NguDavid Swanson

Uma impi yayingumthetho, ngokusemthethweni, ekuvikeleni, ezuzisa ukusabalalisa inkululeko, futhi engabizi, siyobe sibophezelekile ukuyiqeda lokho okuyinhloko yethu kuphela ngenxa yokubhujiswa ukuthi impi kanye namalungiselelo empi kwenza njengabantu abaholayo bemvelo yethu yemvelo .

Ngifunde a umbiko kuleli sonto lisuka ethangini lezemvelo laseMelika elikhuthaza ukuthi amasosha aseMelika aqhumise amaloli agcwele uwoyela negesi. Amaloli ngeka-ISIS, kanti impikiswano ukuthi amaloli aqhuma amabhomu enza umonakalo omncane kunokuqhuma imithombo kawoyela, nokuthi - uma ungeza ezintweni ezingacacile zenhlalo nezomnotho kunalokho ngokulinganayo okulinganiselwe ngamanani-ukucacisa kwamanani - amaloli okuqhuma amabhomu awonakalisi kakhulu kunokwenza lutho . Inketho yokusebenza ngokungenabudlova ukuthula, ukuphucwa izikhali, usizo nokuvikelwa kwemvelo ayicatshangelwa.

Uma singaqali ukubheka izinketho ezintsha, sesizophelelwa izinketho ngokuphelele. Cishe ama- $ 1 trillion abekwa yi-United States kwezempi unyaka ngamunye iyindlela yokuqala lapho impi ibulala futhi ingumthombo wezinketho ezingakacatshangelwa okwamanje. Izingxenyana ezincane zokusetshenziswa kwamasosha aseMelika kungaqeda indlala, ukungabikho kwamanzi ahlanzekile, kanye nezifo ezahlukahlukene emhlabeni jikelele. Ngenkathi ukuguqula amandla ahlanzekile kungazikhokhela ngokonga kwezempilo, izimali zokwenza lokho zikhona, kaningi ngaphezulu, kwisabelomali sezempi sase-US. Uhlelo olulodwa lwendiza, i-F-35, lungakhanselwa futhi izimali ezisetshenziselwe ukuguqula wonke amakhaya ase-United States ahlanzele amandla.

Ngeke sisindise isimo sezulu somhlaba wethu njengabantu ngabanye. Sidinga imizamo ehlelekile yomhlaba. Ukuphela kwendawo lapho izinsiza zingatholakala khona kwezempi. Ingcebo yezigidigidi ayiqali nokuphikisana nayo. Futhi ukuyisusa embuthweni wamasosha, ngisho nangaphandle kokwenza noma yini enye ngayo, kuyinto eyodwa engcono kakhulu esingayenzela umhlaba. Umbutho wezempi wase-US ungumthengi ohamba phambili we-petroleum nxazonke, ungcolisi wesithathu omkhulu kunabo bonke emizileni yamanzi yase-US, umdali omkhulu wezindawo zenhlekelele zemvelo ezixhaswe kakhulu.

Umkhankaso wangaphambi komongameli uDonald Trump usayine incwadi enyatheliswa ngoDisemba 6, 2009, ekhasini 8 New York Times, incwadi eya kuMongameli Obama obizwa ngokuthi ushintsho lwemozulu inselele esheshayo. "Ngicela ungahlehliseli umhlaba," kusho. "Uma sihluleka ukwenza isinyathelo manje, kusenakuphikiswa kwesayensi ukuthi kuyoba nemiphumela emibi futhi engenakuphulukiswa ebantwini naseplanethi yethu."

Phakathi kwemiphakathi eyamukela noma ekhuthaza ukwenziwa kwempi, leyo miphumela yokucekelwa phansi kwemvelo kungenzeka ifake nokwenziwa kwempi okwengeziwe. Kungamanga futhi kuyazilimaza ukusho ukuthi ukuguquka kwesimo sezulu kumane kubangele impi lapho kungekho nhlangano yomuntu. Akukho kuhlangana phakathi kokushoda kwezinsizakusebenza nempi noma ukubhujiswa kwemvelo nempi. Kukhona, noma kunjalo, ukuxhumana phakathi kokwamukelwa kwamasiko empi nempi. Kepha lo mhlaba - futhi ikakhulukazi izingxenye ezithile zawo, kufaka phakathi ne-United States - yamukela kakhulu impi, njengoba kukholakala enkolelweni yokungavikeleki kwempi.

Izimpi ezidala ukubhujiswa kwezemvelo kanye nokufuduka kwabantu abaningi, okwenza izimpi eziningi, ukudala ukubhujiswa okuqhubekayo kuyisiyaluyalu esiyingozi okufanele siyiqede ngokuvikela imvelo nokuqeda impi.

Kuze kube sekugcineni, abaningi bethu bahlela umcimbi eWashington, DC, ngasekupheleni kukaSeptemba okuzoletha ndawonye abaholi bezemvelo nabokuthula abahola phambili. Uyakhuthazwa ukuthi ubhalise futhi uhlanganyele #NoWar2017: Impi Nendawo.

Sithatha ne-flotilla yokuthula nemvelo emaphethelweni wePentagon echibini eliseduze noMfula iPotomac. Uma ungenayo i-kayak sizokutholela eyodwa. Bhalisa lapha.

Ukuthula neplanethi! Awekho amafutha amaningi wezimpi!
