Ibhalwe nguFelton Davis
UDavid Swanson uyibiza ngokuthi "i-Pentagon's 51st state.” Amaphesenti ayishumi omhlaba waseColorado, azobanjwa futhi abekelwe eceleni ukuhlolwa kwempi ye-robotics kanye ne-drone.
NgoLwesihlanu, Ibutho Lezempi Lase-US lithumele Isitatimende Sokugcina Somthelela Emvelweni seNdawo Enwetshiwe yePiñon Canyon Maneuver, kuwebhusayithi yeFort Carson. Umphakathi unikezwe kuze kube umhlaka-10 kuMbasa ukuthi uphawule ngezinhlelo, ezibizwe ngezindawo ezinkulu kakhulu zokuqolwa komhlaba emlandweni we-United States.
NgoMgqibelo, isitatimende somthelela sihoxisiwe, ngaphandle kwesixwayiso.
NgeSonto, i-“Not One More Acre” icele abalandeli ukuthi bathinte Amasosha bacele incazelo, into abaningi abamadolonzima ukuyenza, ngenxa yokwesaba “ukulandelwa” ngamasosha.
NgoMsombuluko ekuseni, ngathumelela isikhulu sezokwazisa zomphakathi sase-Fort Carson i-imeyili, futhi ngacela ikhophi yombhalo, futhi ngathola impendulo enesizotha phakathi namahora amabili, equkethe isixhumanisi sesitatimende.
Kamuva ngoMsombuluko, i-Army ibuyekeze iwebhusayithi yayo, ibuyisela kabusha isitatimende somthelela ukuze ufinyelele umphakathi, futhi uguqule umnqamulajuqu wokuphawula kusukela ngomhla ka-April 10 kuya ku-April 19.
Nokho, le mibhalo emibili ingase ingafani. I-EIS ethunyelwe ngoLwesihlanu ibingaphezu kwamamegabhayithi angama-30 ngosayizi, namakhasi angama-665 ubude. Engayithola yayingamamegabyte angu-22 kuphela, namakhasi angu-642 ubude. Kwenzekeni emakhasini angama-23 esitatimende somthelela kwezemvelo?
Futhi, akudingekile ukusho, bangaki abantu abazokwazi ukuhamba phakathi kwazo zonke lezi zinto eziminyene phakathi kwamanje no-Ephreli 19?
Ngemva kwesinye sezindatshana eziye zavela ngale mpikiswano, owesifazane waseTexas waphawula ukuthi wayethathe uhambo olukhethekile oluya eColorado ukuze azibonele le ndawo, futhi okwamthinta kakhulu ukuthi kwakuthule kanjani. uma kuqhathaniswa neDallas. Futhi ngizizwa kanjalo. Hhayi i-NIMBY (hhayi egcekeni lami elingemuva), kodwa i-NOMV (hhayi eholidini lami). Angifuni ukugibela kuleyo ndawo ekhethekile enotshani, izihlahla, izihlahlana, nezihlahla ezincane, futhi ngizwe imisindo yezikhali ezivivinywayo. Angifuni ukubona izigodi zase-Iraq ziqhunyiswa. Futhi angiwafuni ama-drones angenamshayeli esigabeni sokuhlola azulazula phezulu, alungele ukugcwalisa noma yini ehambayo. Futhi mayelana nezinhlelo zamarobhothi zeButho, ngikholwa ukuthi umdubuli werobhothi ka-Yul Brynner e-“Westworld” uyisisekelo. Uma wakha irobhothi, futhi ulimise ukuba linyakaze, ekugcineni lizohlela umbono onesinqumo esiphakeme ngobuchopho bekhompyutha yalo, kanye nezinhlamvu zangempela zezibhamu zalo.

Ngingaya kuphi ukuze ngithathe isinyathelo kulokhu?
Thina—i-US–sidinga umbutho wezokuvikela ukuze sivikele futhi sivikele Izwe lethu…futhi akukho okuncane noma okungaphezu kwalokho. Ngakho-ke, kuyinkolelo yami ukuthi singanciphisa amasosha ethu cishe ngo-50% kulo nyaka futhi senze okufanayo ngonyaka ozayo futhi kuqhubeke kuze kube yilapho sithola inani elifanele labavikeli. Futhi ngokufanele kufanele futhi sibuyisele umhlaba wezempi oweqile kanye nezinsiza ku-Public Domain. Futhi akufanele siphinde sithole umhlaba onjengePinon Canyon. Kudingeka simise lesi senzo...sifuna amasosha amancane hhayi ngaphezulu.
Sidinga ukumisa i-hegemony kanye Nokwakha Isizwe MANJE!
"Futhi, akudingekile ukusho, bangaki abantu abazokwazi ukungena kukho konke lokho okuminyene phakathi kwamanje no-Ephreli 19?"
Anginalwazi.
