Isifinyezo esiphezulu
Ngaphandle kokuhoxiswa kwezisekelo zamasosha ase-US namasosha e-Afghanistan, i-United States iyaqhubeka nokugcina izisekelo zamasosha ezungeze i-750 phesheya emazweni angama-80 nakwamanye amazwe (izindawo). Lezi zisekelo zibiza ngezindlela eziningi: kwezezimali, kwezepolitiki, kwezenhlalo nakwezemvelo. Izisekelo zase-US emazweni aphesheya zivame ukuphakamisa ukungezwani kwezepolitiki, zisekele imibuso engabuswa ngentando yeningi, futhi zisebenze njengethuluzi lokuqasha amaqembu ezimpi aphikisana nobukhona be-US kanye nohulumeni ubukhona bayo buqinisa. Kwamanye amacala, kusetshenziswa izisekelo zakwamanye amazwe futhi zenze kwaba lula ukuthi i-United States iqalise futhi isebenzise izimpi eziyinhlekelele, kufaka phakathi lezo ezise-Afghanistan, Iraq, Yemen, Somalia naseLibya. Kuwo wonke umkhakha wezepolitiki kanye nasemasosheni ase-US kunokwanda okwandayo kokuthi izisekelo eziningi zaphesheya kwezilwandle bekufanele ngabe zivaliwe emashumini eminyaka adlule, kepha inertia yeziphathimandla kanye nezintshisekelo zezombusazwe ezingekho emthethweni zibagcine bevulekile.
Phakathi kokubuyekezwa okuqhubekayo kwe "Global Posture Review," abaphathi beBiden banethuba eliyingqophamlando lokuvala amakhulukhulu ezizinda zamasosha ezingadingekile phesheya futhi bathuthukise ukuphepha kwezwe kanye nakwamanye amazwe kule nqubo.
IPentagon, kusukela ngonyaka wezimali u-2018, yehlulekile ukushicilela uhlu lwayo lwaminyaka yonke lwezisekelo zase-US phesheya. Ngokwazi kwethu, lo mfushane wethula ukubalwa kwezimali okugcwele komphakathi kwezisekelo zase-US nezindawo ezithunyelwa ngaphandle kwezempi emhlabeni jikelele. Izinhlu nemephu efakiwe kulo mbiko zikhombisa izinkinga eziningi ezihambisana nalezi zisekelo zaphesheya kwezilwandle, ezinikeza ithuluzi elingasiza abenzi bomgomo ukuhlela okuhlelwa ukuvalwa kwezisekelo okuphuthumayo.
Izimpendulo ze-2
Ngisebenza kuspredishithi sezisekelo zamasosha ase-US nazo zonke amakhemikhali ayingozi (kufaka phakathi i-PFAS) efakwe kuhlu. Bangaphezu kuka-400 abangcolisiwe namanye amakhulu abalinde imiphumela yokuhlolwa ezokhishwa. Lokhu kubukeka sengathi kuzobandakanya iningi lezisekelo zase-US. Amabhesi aphesheya kwezilwandle anzima kakhulu, ngenxa yezigaba zokuzivikela ezibusa, kepha iningi lazo lingcolisiwe.
Sawubona JIm,
Ngiyaxolisa ukuthi manje sengibona umbono wakho. Singathanda ukungeza ispredishithi sakho ocwaningweni lwethu. Ngisanda kuba nomfundi oqeqeshelwa umsebenzi izinyanga ezimbalwa obesebenza ekwakheni isizindalwazi ukuze abhale zonke izindaba zezemvelo ezindaweni zakwamanye amazwe, futhi lolo lwazi lungaba negalelo elikhulu. Ungangithinta nge-imeyili ukuze sikwazi ukuxoxa ngokubambisana? leahbolger@comcast.net
