Impi nomdlavuza kungezinye zezimbangela zethu ezihamba phambili zokufa kwabantu emhlabeni jikelele. Azikwazi ukuhlukaniswa ngokuqinile futhi ziqhathaniswe kusukela lapho impi iyimbangela enkulu yomdlavuza, njengoba kunjalo ukulungiselela impi. (Futhi ingxenye encane yesabelomali sase-US samalungiselelo empi ingaxhasa ucwaningo lomdlavuza ngaphezu kwayo yonke imali eqoqwe uxhaso lukahulumeni noluzimele kanye nayo yonke imijaho engu-5-K yokwelapha kanye neminye imisebenzi esiyijwayele.) Impi kanye nomdlavuza, ngokwemvelo yawo, nawo awukwazi ukubhekwana nawo ngohlobo olufanayo lwezimpendulo.
Ukuvinjelwa komdlavuza, okuhlanganisa nezinguquko ezinqala ezinqubweni zemboni namandla, akunamkhawulo, kanti ukwelapha umdlavuza kanye nokufuna ikhambi cishe kuwuhlobo lwethu olusabalele kakhulu nolubonakala esidlangalaleni lwenhlangano esiza abantulayo kanye nokumela. Uma ubona abasubathi noma osaziwayo abamakwe ngokubomvana okugqamile, noma umcimbi womphakathi ogcwele amahembe aphinki noma amaribhoni, noma - eceleni komgwaqo - noma yini ephinki enkulu ephephethekayo, manje akulula ukuthi ucabange ukuthi "i-WTF leyo?" kunokuthi “Sidinga ukusiza ukwelapha umdlavuza webele.”
Ukuvimbela impi, okuhlanganisa ukuqondiswa kabusha okukhulu kwezinsiza zethu nomnotho kude nempi, ukufundiswa kabusha kude nenkulumo-ze yodlame oluzuzisayo, ukusekelwa kokuxazululwa kwezingxabano ezingenalo udlame, nokukhuthazwa komthetho wamazwe ngamazwe kanye nokushushiswa kwabenzi bempi, nakho akuvunyelwe. . Kodwa ukwelashwa ngempi kanye nokuthungatha ikhambi lempi uma sekuqalile, kubonakala kungenalusizo kakhulu kunokufuna ikhambi lokwelapha umdlavuza. Impi ayinakuphikiswa futhi yenziwa umuntu ngokuphelele. Iningi lezisulu zalo ezibulalayo lifa ngokushesha. Ukumisa impi uma isiqalile kunzima kakhulu kunokuyeka ukuyiqala, njengoba kungekho qembu elingakwazi ukulawula indlela yempi, futhi inkulumo-ze yokusekela amasosha iqinisekisa abantu ukuthi ukuqeda impi kubi kakhulu kunokuqhubeka nayo. Uma impi isiphelile, ihlehlisa intukuthelo nenzondo nemikhuba yodlame, nokucekelwa phansi kwemvelo (kanye nobhubhane lomdlavuza), kanye nokucekelwa phansi kwenkululeko nentando yeningi, konke kuhlanganisa umsebenzi omkhulu - uma kungenzeki - uma kuqhathaniswa nalowo ukugwema izimpi ngaphambi kokuba ziqale.
Ngakho-ke, uma siqhathanisa isidingo somphakathi ne ukuqeda umdlavuza ngomunye ku qeda impi, lokhu kwakamuva kubonakala kudinga ukumisa uhlelo lwethu lomphakathi olukhulu kakhulu, kuyilapho olwangaphambili lusivumela ukuthi siqhubeke nokushayela ama-SUV ethu e-Wal-Mart inqobo nje uma sinamathisele iribhoni eliphinki ngemuva ukuze sibonise ukuthi odokotela nososayensi kufanele baqhubeke nemashi enkulu inqubekelaphambili. Futhi-ke kufanele. Kufanele sitshala imali eningi kakhulu ekwelapheni umdlavuza, ingasaphathwa eye-Alzheimer's engumbulali omkhulu njengomdlavuza kodwa ephikiswa uxhaso oluncane kakhulu (hhayi usongo oluthile kuleyo ntandokazi yazo zonke izingxenye zomzimba: ibele).
Kodwa ukuqeda impi kungase kube isidingo esicindezelayo. Izikhali zenuzi zingasetshenziswa ngenhloso noma ngephutha futhi zisibhubhise sonke. Izinsiza ezilahlwe empini zidingeka kabi emsebenzini wokugwema inhlekelele yemvelo (ingasaphathwa eyokuphulukisa umdlavuza). Kuthiwani uma umkhankaso wokuqeda impi wawuzofunda amaqhinga ambalwa emkhankasweni wokuqeda umdlavuza webele?
Ukulandela ukuhola kwamaVolontiya okuthula ase-Afghan, umkhankaso wokungabi nodlame, World Beyond War, namanye amaqembu okuthula akhuthaza wonke umuntu ukuba asebenzise isibhakabhaka esibhakabhaka kanye namasongo njengezimpawu zokuthula nokusekelwa kokuqeda zonke izimpi. Kuthiwani uma izimpawu eziluhlaza okwesibhakabhaka zanda njengezipinki? Kungaba njani lokho?
