NguTimmon Wallis, World BEYOND War, Ngo-September 30, i-2020
Senator othandekayo Markey,
Ngikubhalele ngale ndaba kaningana, kepha kuze kube manje ngithole izimpendulo zesitoko kuphela, ezenziwe ngokungangabazeki ngabasebenzi bakho noma abaqeqeshwayo, ezingaphenduli imibuzo ethile engiyiphakamisile. Ngiyethemba impendulo ezocatshangelwa kuwe, njengoba isihlalo sakho sesivikeleke eminye iminyaka eyisi-6.
Ngiyilungu leMassachusetts Peace Action futhi ngikhankasele ukukhethwa kwakho kabusha, kanye nabanye abaningi ekuthula nasezinhlanganweni zezulu ezweni lonke. Ngiyishayela ihlombe imizamo yenu eminyakeni eminingi namashumi eminyaka yokunciphisa futhi “iqhwa” umjaho wezikhali zenuzi.
Kepha kuleli phuzu emlandweni, kufanele ukweseke ngokusobala UKUQEDWA KONKE kwezikhali zenuzi. Kuze kube manje uyenqaba ukwenza kanjalo, futhi umane uqhubeke nokuxhasa ukwehliswa kwenqwaba kanye nokuncishiswa kwesabelomali. Lokho ngeke kusondele ngokwanele ukuqhubeka nokuwina ukwesekwa kwami.
Njengoba ungakhumbula kusuka ezincwadini zangaphambilini, ngaba nelungelo lokuba yingxenye yezingxoxo zeZizwe Ezihlangene ezaholela eSivumelwaneni Sika-2017 Sokuvinjelwa Kwezikhali Zenuzi. (Futhi naku-2017 Nobel Peace Prize!) Ngizibonele ngawami ukuzibophezela okumangalisayo kohulumeni kanye nomphakathi womphakathi ovela emhlabeni wonke ukuthi ekugcineni basuse lezi zikhali ezesabekayo ngaphambi kokuthi ziphinde zisetshenziswe.
Ngisebenze nabasindile baseHiroshima naseNagasaki, abachitha iminyaka engaphezu kwengu-70 belwa ukuqinisekisa ukuthi alikho idolobha futhi alikho izwe elake ladlula kulokho abadlula kukho ngo-Agasti 1945. Ngiphinde ngasebenza kanye nabaphansi kanye nezinye izisulu zokuhlolwa kwenuzi, ukumbiwa kwe-uranium neminye imiphumela yezemvelo yebhizinisi lezikhali zenuzi elidale ukuhlupheka nobunzima obukhulu emashumini amaningi eminyaka kusukela lapho.
Ngisanda kulalela ukuphawula kwakho okuqoshiwe eMhlanganweni Wezinga Eliphezulu le-UN ngo-Okthoba 2 ukukhumbula uSuku Lwamazwe Ngamazwe Lwe-UN Lokuqedwa Kwezikhali Zezikhali Zenuzi. Ngingakutshela, Senator Markey, ngokuqiniseka okuphelele, ukuthi amazwi akho azokhamuluka engenangqondo kubo bonke labo bantu abebesebenza kanzima ukuqeda ngokuphelele lezi zikhali.
Ungasho kanjani ukuthi lokho esikudingayo manje kungenye “iqhwa” emjahweni wezikhali zenuzi? Umhlaba wonke usuvele uthe kwanele, futhi manje sidinga UKUPHELA okuphelele kulo msangano wenuzi, unomphela. Lezi zikhali, njengoba uzishilo kaningi ngokwakho, zingusongo olukhona kulo lonke uhlanga lwesintu. Kungani umhlaba ungamukela "ukuqandisa" isibalo samakhanda empi ayi-14,000 kanti lokho sekuyiziqhwaga zempi ezingama-14,000 eziningi kakhulu?
Njengoba ngineqiniso lokuthi wazi kahle, "ukuthengiselana okuhle" kweSivumelwano Sokungahambisani Nokwanda Kwezokubandakanya kubandakanye nomhlaba wonke ngaphambi kokuzakhela kwabo izikhali zenuzi ngenhloso yokuzibophezela kwamandla enuzi akhona ukuqeda lezo isivele inakho. Leso kwakuyisithembiso esenziwa eminyakeni engama-50 edlule sokuxoxisana "ngokuthembeka" futhi "kusenesikhathi" sokuqedwa kwezikhali zabo. Futhi njengoba nazi, yaphindwa futhi ngo-1995 futhi nango-2000 “njengomsebenzi ongenakuphikiswa” wokuxoxisana ngokususwa kwazo zonke izikhali zenuzi.
Akunzima kangako ukukwenza. Futhi ayenzi buthaka i-United States nganoma iyiphi indlela. Empeleni, njengoba manje sesibona neNyakatho Korea, ukuphatha izikhali zenuzi manje sekuyi "equalizer" entsha eyenza ukuthi umdlali omncane nje njengoDPRK asongele i-United States ngemiphumela engaba yinhlekelele, ngisho nasezingeni eliphezulu elilodwa nje kuphela Ukuqhuma kwe-EMP. Izwe laseMelika lizoqhubeka nokuba ngumbutho wamasosha onamandla kunayo yonke emhlabeni, noma kungenazo izikhali zenuzi. Kungaba namandla ANGAKHULU uma ngabe akekho onezikhali zenuzi.
Futhi nokho, imboni yezikhali zenuzi iyindawo yokwamukela izivakashi enamandla amakhulu, njengoba kunjalo nangemboni yezinsalela. Ngiyakuqonda lokho. Ngisho naseMassachusetts sinezinkampani ezinamandla kakhulu ezincike ekunikezelweni okungapheli kwezinkontileka zezikhali zenuzi. Kepha sidinga ukuthi lezo zinkampani zicwaninge ubuchwepheshe obusha obuluhlaza futhi zenze izixazululo ezinqenqemeni zenkinga yesimo sezulu.
Uzakhele udumo enhlanganweni yokuthula emsebenzini obalulekile owenze kuma-1980s ukusiza "ukumisa" umjaho wezikhali zenuzi. Kepha lokho akwanele.
NGICELA ungakhulumi ngomnyakazo “omusha” womhlaba wokuqandisa inuzi. Inhlangano entsha yomhlaba isivele ikhona, futhi ifuna UKUQEDWA kwazo zonke izikhali zenuzi, ngokuhambisana neSivumelwano Sokuvinjelwa Kwezikhali Zenuzi.
NGICELA ungakhulumi “ngokufaka kabusha” inani lezikhali zenuzi. Inombolo kuphela eyamukelekayo yezikhali zenuzi emhlabeni yi-ZERO!
SICELA uyeke ukukhuluma mayelana “nokusetshenziswa kwemali ngokungenasidingo” ezikhaliweni zenuzi, lapho KONKE ukusetshenziswa kwemali ngezikhali zenuzi kungadingeki nhlobo futhi kungumthwalo ongamukeleki kusabelomali sethu sezwe lapho izinto ezibaluleke kakhulu ezibaluleke kakhulu zixhaswa ngemali.
NGICELA ungabe usakhuluma ngeSivumelwano Sokuqedwa Kwempahla Yesikhashana. Lokho akulutho ngaphandle komkhonyovu owenzelwe ukuvumela i-US kanye nabanye abadlali abakhulu ukuthi baqhubeke nentuthuko yabo yenuzi bengavunyelwe, ngenkathi kuthiwa kuvimbela amazwe amasha ukuthi athuthukise awabo.
SICELA umise izindinganiso eziphindwe kabili, ulinganise ukuthi kulungile ukuthi i-US ibe nezikhali zenuzi kepha hhayi iNdiya noma iNorth Korea noma i-Iran. Vuma ukuthi inqobo nje uma i-US iphikelela ekugcineni izikhali zenuzi, asinamandla okuziphatha noma yini ukutshela amanye amazwe ukuthi azinazo.
SICELA uyeke ukukhuluma ngokuthi “akukho ukusetshenziswa kokuqala” njengokungathi ukusebenzisa izikhali zenuzi ISIBILI kulungile ngandlela thile! Izikhali zenuzi akumele zisetshenziswe, noma nini, ngaphansi kwanoma yiziphi izimo, okokuqala, okwesibili, okwesithathu noma naphakade. Sicela uphinde ucabange ukuthi uthini umyalezo owudlulisela kubantu uma ukhuluma ngokungasetshenziswa kokuqala hhayi ngokuqeda lezi zikhali ngokuphelele.
Nganoma yiziphi izizathu, usabonakala ungazimisele ukujoyina umhlaba wonke ekugxekeni ukuqhubeka kwalezi zikhali futhi ucele ukuthi zisuswe ngokuphelele. Kungani usenqaba ukusekela, noma ngisho nokusho, iSivumelwano Se-UN Sokuvinjelwa Kwezikhali Zenuzi? Ikakhulukazi manje, uma kunjalo sekuzosebenza, ukuvimbela umthetho wamazwe omhlaba konke okuphathelene nalezi zikhali nokuzibeka ngokuqinile esigabeni esifanayo sezikhali ezivinjelwe njengezikhali zamakhemikhali nezamagciwane.
NGICELA, ngicela ukuthi ucabangisise indlela ozobhekana ngayo nalolu daba bese unquma ukuthi ufuna ukuba kuluphi uhlangothi locingo. Lapho wenqaba ukukhuluma noma ukukhombisa ukweseka kwakho i-TPNW noma ukuqedwa ngokuphelele kwezikhali zenuzi, bese ukhomba umunwe emhlabeni wonke, uhlangana ngesonto elizayo e-UN, bese uthi “uzokwenzani sinciphise usongo kwiplanethi okukhona? ” Ucabanga ukuthi kwenzeka kanjani ukuthi abantu bafune ukuqedwa kwalezi zikhali futhi basebenze kanzima kulokho okuyiqiniso?
Wakho,
UTimmon Wallis, PhD

Izimpendulo ze-6
Ukuqandeka kungaba isinyathelo sokuqala ekwenziweni kwe-nuclearization, okuvumela umhlaba ukuthi uphinde ucabangisise futhi ulungiselele izinyathelo ezilandelayo.
(ngingumsunguli wobumbano lwenqubomgomo yezangaphandle)
Kwaqhamuka abantu abayisigidi eCentral Park ngeminyaka yama-1980 befuna ukuthi kubanjwe iqhwa lenyukliya futhi basika eminye imicibisholo eyayisongela umhlaba, basika nezindawo zokugcina izimpi eminyakeni edlule kusuka ku-70,000 kuya ku-14,000 yempi yenuzi ebulalayo namuhla. Ngemuva kweqhwa, wonke umuntu wagoduka futhi wakhohlwa ukucela ukuqedwa. Isivumelwano esisha sokuvimbela ibhomu siyindlela yokuhamba futhi ukucela ukumiswa kungumyalezo ongafanele! Yeka ukuzenza, vala amalebhu ezikhali phansi, bese uthola ukuthi ungayiqaqa kanjani futhi uyigcine kanjani imfucumfucu yenyukliya ebulalayo eminyakeni engama-300,000 elandelayo noma ngaphezulu. Freeze kuyinto engenangqondo !!
Incwadi ebhalwe kahle kakhulu.
Ngizoyisabalalisa le ncwadi.
Wenze kahle. Ngiyabonga
Ukuphendula imibono, "I-Freeze kungaba isinyathelo sokuqala." ?! Ukusho lokhu manje njengo-Co-Founder of Foreign Policy Alliance?
Wake wafunda iSivumelwano Sokuhlolwa Kokuvinjelwa kwe-JFK ngo-1963? Lokho bekuzoba yisinyathelo sakhe sokuqala ochungechungeni lwezinyathelo zokususa izikhali zenuzi emhlabeni. Yanqanyulwa.
Ngiyabonga Prof. Wallis. Incwadi enhle kakhulu, incwadi efike ngesikhathi.
Kungani uSenator Markey engasinakanga ISITATHA esikhulu kunazo zonke selokhu uGorbachev afike enkundleni ngo-1985…. (I-TPNW) futhi yena noma iqembu abakaze bachaze ukuthi kungani.
USenator Markey, ngihlale kaningi ehhovisi lakho e2016, ngosizo lwakho lwenqubomgomo yezangaphandle nezempi. Bonke banikezwa amakhophi wedokhumentari ethi “Ukucabanga Okuhle, Labo Abake Bazama Ukumisa Izikhali Zenuzi” ebukeza izinkulungwane eziningi zabaholi bethu abakhulu abamele le mboni.
Futhi ubungomunye wabo. Emashumini eminyaka edlule nina kanye nani nikhulume ngokusobala, ngesibindi, futhi nabhala isenzo SANE phakathi kwabanye…. Wena mnumzane, bakule vidiyo… ..
Ngo-2016 abasebenzi bakho batshelwa ukuthi umhlaba ubenele ngamakilabhu enuzi asongela yonke impilo emhlabeni, futhi asebenzise izigidigidi zemali yethu yentela esiyidingayo ngakho konke okunye. Ukuthi kube nezingqungquthela zomhlaba ezaqhamuka (abamele izwe abayi-155 ababambe iqhaza) futhi wacelwa ukuba wenze isitatimende kubo, ukweseka, njengoMmeli Oyedwa wase-US esingaziqhenya ngakho, ukumelana nemishini yokubulawa kwabantu… .. umuntu oyedwa ukuveza imizwa iningi lezakhamizi elizizwa ngayo. Awuzange.
Ngibe sengicela nje ukwamukelwa esidlangalaleni ngemizamo yabo, imizamo esake saba yiyo, nokuthi abavoti bakho babecabanga ukuthi okwakho kubamele. Kepha ... ukuthula okuvela kuwe.
Ihhovisi lakho, njengawo wonke amahhovisi ethu ebandla, alikwazanga ukungitshela izindleko zabakhokhi bentela zale mboni.
Lapho bebuzwa, bebengakacabangi kangako ukuthi ibutho elilodwa lizokwenzenjani. (Into owake wakwazi ukuyikhuluma kahle, kepha abasebenzi bakho bebazi okuncane ngayo.)
Sibe noMongameli ezuza umklomelo weNobel Peace Prize ngokuthi wathi unethemba lokuthi ngelinye ilanga sizoba nezwe elingenazikhali zenuzi. Isango lelo nje…. umhlaba wavuzwa kakhulu, wagubha. Kepha, esikhathini esingaphansi konyaka usayine yonke imiyalelo yezikhali zenuzi ezintsha nezikhungo ezintsha. Kungani ungabizi lokho?
Kwabe sekufika Ingqungquthela Yokuvinjelwa Kwezikhali Zenyukliya e-UN, evulwa nguPapa Fances, Mashi 2017 (ngemuva kwezingqungquthela ezinkulu ezintathu zomhlaba wonke eminyakeni eyandulele eyandulela leyo).
Ihhovisi lakho lavuselelwa masonto onke mayelana nezinqubo, ngobufakazi besazi, ubuningi becwaningo namaqiniso aphikisana namanga, ukuhlobana nenhlekelele yesimo sezulu, ukufaka ubuthi emhlabeni, ukucwasana ngokobuhlanga, nemithetho yethu yokusiza kanye nayo yonke imithetho.
Ubuzwe futhi, ukuthi uvume nje ukuthi lo msebenzi onzima, onzima oqhubekayo. Uma ungavumelani namanye amaphuzu, kulungile, noma ngabe ubusaba kakhulu ukuwasekela, KULUNGILE, KODWA nje ukwamukela osomaqhinga abasebenza ubusuku nemini kulezi zinyanga… .. Awutholanga nelilodwa igama. Akumina ngedwa othuliswa ukuthula kwakho.
Bese kuthi uProf. Wallios abhale, amazwe ayi-122 empeleni aguqula le Ngqungquthela ibe ngeyokwamukela iSivumelwano Sokuvinjelwa, ngoJulayi! Ukukhazimula okungaka! Kepha kuvela kuwe, Hhayi nezwi.
Kwabe sekuklonyeliswa uNobel Peace Prize enikezwa inhlangano eyasiza ukuhlanganisa izakhamizi ukuthi zibambe iqhaza ekwaziseni lesi Sivumelwano, abaningi abavela ezweni lakini nasezweni lethu. Hhayi izwi lesikhuthazo noma lokubonga elivela kuwe.
Kusukela ngesonto eledlule umhlaba usezizweni ezi-5 kuphela kulo mthetho we-International! Lokhu kubalulekile, izindaba ezinhle zokuvela kwempucuko. Ake siyisize ikhule futhi ifike lapho. Masibambisane nomsebenzi onzima, ukusatshalaliswa kwamaqiniso.
UProf. Wallis ubhale incwadi enhle kakhulu, Ukuqeda izikhali ngeNuclear Argument. Sicela uyifunde. Akukho neyodwa yezizwe zethu ephikisana neqiniso.
Yena noVicki Elson bakhiqiza umbiko omangalisayo esikhathini esingaphezu konyaka esedlule, i- “Warheads to Windmills” ukukhombisa indlela eya phambili yokuxhasa ngemali ngeGreen New Deal yangempela, ebhekene nolunye usongo olukhulu esintwini. Uthole ikhophi ngaleso sikhathi. Yitadishe.
Njengoba uProf. Wallis esho, ufisa ukukhuluma ngeqhwa? Sasikhona sonke ngeFreeze. Bekade ngi…. kanye neningi lezakhamizi ngaleso sikhathi. Sasinabadala abaningi enhlanganweni yokulwa nezikhali zenuzi ngaphambi kokuba iVietnam ithathe amandla ethu amaningi ukuze ayeke.
Ngakho-ke, cha, akudingeki ukuthi siqale phansi ngokunyakaza kweFreeze… sidinga ukuba yilungu le-RE, futhi siye phambili.
Ngabe usifundile iSivumelwano Sokuvinjelwa Kwezikhali Zenuzi okwamanje? Umbhalo omuhle, (amakhasi ayishumi kuphela!) Futhi kuholela indlela yokuthi singene ngangokunokwenzeka.
Sitshele uSenator Markey, chaza ukuthi kwenzekani kuwe?
Uyamkhumbula uFrances Crowe?
Bewumazi uSr. Adeth Platte ongasekho? Wayekwazi futhi esehhovisi lakho futhi uzwela lwakhe lwalunamandla futhi lukhanya ngaphezu kwanoma yisiphi isazi sezimboni esinamandla kunawo wonke 'noma ezempi esiwela etafuleni lakho. Zama ukuzwa ukuthi impilo yakhe ibizinikele kuphi.
Awusamkhumbuli umngane wakhe amthandayo owamlwela mathupha, uSr Megan Rice?! Ngiyabonga ngalokho, yebo uyakwenza. Iminyaka yakhe esejele?
Kuthiwani ngoDorothy Day, uPapa angamemezanga nakanye enkulumweni yakhe kuwe e-US Congress, kodwa izikhathi ezine ezihlukene! Kungani?
Wabiza uMLK, Jr kanye nendela uThomas Merton…. kungani? Zazithini izibopho zabo zokuphila kanye nokucaca mayelana nezikhali zenuzi?
Kuthiwani ngoLiz McAlister, yena kanye nabanye abasebenzi abayisithupha bamaKhatholika, umzukulu kaDorothy Day ongomunye wabo, abesejele futhi esezogwetshwa kule nyanga eNkantolo Yomfelandawonye yaseGeorgia ngokuzama ukuvusa izakhamizi zaseMelika ethuneni kanye nemali engapheli wale mboni… ..Uke wafunda ngokungalaleli kwabo emphakathini nokuthi kungani ngokuzithandela, babeka impilo yabo engcupheni engcupheni? Ungaze ucabange ngokubakhulisa? Ungacabanga ngokwabelana ngobufakazi babo nobufakazi Akuvunyelwe ukushiwo ezinkantolo zethu zeFederal?
Inkulungwane lethu elashaywa phansi eWall Street ngoJuni 1970 lazi kahle ukuthi kungani sinezikhali zenuzi. Uyazi ukuthi kungani. Yibhizinisi “elonakele kakhulu”. Isikhathi sokunikela ngempilo yakho yakho ngokulungile nokuthi yini edala ukuphepha kwangempela. Noma, okungenani woza ihlanzekile.
Njengoba kwamenyezelwa u-Einstien, nezinkulungwane zemiphefumulo ekhaliphile kusukela lapho, la madivayisi asinikeza "umuzwa ongamanga wokuphepha". Uzakwabo u-Prof. Freeman Dyson ongasekho unanela wathi, “Zonke lezi zinto ezingenza ukubulala izigidi zabantu? Ingabe yilokho okufunayo? …… Ukuqinisekisa kumane kuyizaba zokubambezela izinto …… Zisuse nje, futhi nonke nizophepha kakhulu ”.
Kusukela ngo-1960, umeluleki wami u-Amb. UZenon Rossides ubize amazwe ezikhali zenuzi. Uphinde wakubeka kwacaca, “Akuwona amandla ezikhali
kepha amandla omoya,
Lokho kuzosindisa umhlaba. ”
Ngiyabonga World Beyond War. Ngiyabonga uProf. Timmon Wallis. Ngiyabonga nonke ngokuqhubeka.
Incwadi enhle kakhulu eya kuSenen Markey. Manje sengikhuthazekile ukuthumela isicelo esifanayo kuye.
Noma singeke silindele ukuthi abaholi abaningi noma izizwe zibize okungaphezu kweqhwa, sidinga izwi elifanayo leSenator elihlonishwa kakhulu njengoMarkey ukusukuma enze icala lokususwa kwazo zonke izikhali zokubhujiswa okukhulu. Akekho eCongress okulungele kangcono futhi okwazi ukwenza icala.
Uphephile esihlalweni sakhe eminye iminyaka eyisithupha. Manje kungani engathathi lokhu kuma manje?
