Kungashiwo okufanayo ngemithombo yezindaba yezinkampani, ukuhlolwa kwayo kwabaphikisi bakamongameli kunikeza inqubomgomo yakwamanye amazwe ukuncipha okufushane, bese kuthi, njengoba waphawula ku izingxabano, ifreyimu enkulu kakhulu imibuzo yamazwe onke ngokungenelela kwezempi.

Yini eshodayo kuleyo ngxoxo eshunquliwe, futhi kusibizelani ngokwamathuba ezombusazwe omhlaba jikelele? UPhyllis Bennis uqondisa iNew Internationalism project ngesikhathi Isikhungo Sezifundo Zenqubomgomo, futhi ungumbhali wezincwadi eziningi, kufaka phakathi Ngaphambi & Ngemuva: Inqubomgomo Yangaphandle yase-US kanye neMpi Yesibindi futhi Ukuqonda Impikiswano yasePalestine / Israeli, manje sekungumagazini wayo wesi-7 obuyekeziwe. Ujoyina nathi ngocingo oluvela eWashington, DC. Uyemukelwa futhi I-CounterSpin, UPhyllis Bennis.

UPhyllis Bennis: Kuhle ukuba nawe.

JJ: Ngifuna ukukhuluma ngokuthi inqubomgomo yezangaphandle yabantu ingahle ibukeke kanjani. Kepha okokuqala, njengoba nginawe lapha, ngizozizwa ngikhululekile ukungabuzi imibono yakho ngemicimbi yamanje eGaza nase-Israel / Palestine. Imidiya yase-US abanaki ukunakwa okuningi emasontweni amabili manje wokuhlaselwa ngabakwa-Israyeli eGaza Strip, futhi izindatshana esizibonayo ziyi-formic impela: U-Israyeli uziphindiselela, uyazi. Manje yini umongo wokusisiza siqonde le micimbi?

I-PB: Yebo. Isimo, uJanine, eGaza sisibi kunakuqala futhi siba sibi kakhulu — hhayi ngoba sebethole esokuqala, ngicabanga ukuthi sesifikile kwabayisikhombisa, amacala okusabalalisa umphakathi ngegciwane le-Covid, okuthe, kuze kube manje, wonke amacala aseGaza — futhi bembalwa kakhulu, ngoba iGaza ibingaphansi i-lockdown kusukela ngo-2007 — kodwa amacala abengenile wonke bekuvela kubantu abebengena bevela ngaphandle, abebekade bengaphandle futhi bebuya. Manje ukusabalala kokuqala komphakathi sekwenzekile, futhi kusho ukuthi uhlelo lokunakekelwa kwezempilo osekuvele lukhona eGaza luzoba khona ukukhungatheka ngokuphelele futhi angakwazi ukubhekana nenkinga.

Leyo nkinga ebhekene nohlelo lokunakekelwa kwezempilo, kunjalo, ibhebhethekisiwe ezinsukwini zamuva nje, nge Ukuqhunyiswa kwamabhomu kwa-Israyeli lokho kuqhubekile, futhi kwafakwa ukusika uphethiloli esikhungweni sokuphehla ugesi esisebenza sodwa seGaza. Lokho kusho ukuthi izibhedlela, nakho konke okunye eGaza, kunjalo Kunqunyelwe amahora amane ngosuku kagesi kakhulu — ezinye izindawo zinaphansi kwaleyo, ezinye azinagesi nhlobo manje, enkabeni yesikhathi esishisa kakhulu sehlobo laseGaza — ukuze abantu ababhekene nanoma yiluphi uhlobo lwezifo zamaphaphu babhujiswe, ngokwezimo zabo zokuphila, futhi izibhedlela zingenza okuncane kakhulu ngakho. Futhi njengoba kwenzeka amacala amaningi eCovid, lokho kuzoba kubi kakhulu.

Ukuqhuma kwamabhomu kwa-Israyeli—Lokhu uhla lokuqhunyiswa kwamabhomu, kunjalo, siyazi ukuthi ukuqhuma kwamabhomu kwa-Israyeli eGaza kuyinto ehlehlele emuva iminyaka eminingi; U-Israyeli usebenzisa i- eside "Ukugunda utshani" ukuchaza ukuphinda kwalo, ukubuyela eGaza ukuyobhomba futhi, ukuze khumbuza isibalo sabantu abasaphila ngaphansi kokuhlala kwa-Israyeli — lo mzuliswano wamanje, osekucishe kube nsuku zonke kusukela lapho August 6, isikhathi esingaphezu kwamasonto amabili, ngokwengxenye kungenxa yokuthi ukuvinjezelwa kweGaza ukuthi u-Israyeli wayemise emuva ngo-2007 kusanda kukhuphuka. Ukuze abadobi base bekhona manje kungavunyelwe kusukela ekuphumeni uyodoba nhlobo, okuyingxenye enkulu yomnotho waseGaza, onomkhawulo kakhulu. Kuyindlela esheshayo abantu abangondla ngayo imindeni yabo futhi, ngokuzumayo, abavunyelwe ukuphuma ngezikebhe zabo. Abakwazi ukuyodoba nhlobo; abanalutho ukondla imindeni yabo.

The imikhawulo emisha ku- okungena manje sekuyikho konke akuvunyelwe, ngaphandle kwezinto ezithile zokudla nezinto ezithile zezokwelapha, okuvame ukutholakala noma kunjalo. Akukho okunye okuvunyelwe ukungena. Ngakho-ke izimo eGaza ziba zimbi impela, zikhathazeke kakhulu.

Futhi abanye abakwaGaza abasha bathumele amabhaluni, amabhaluni akhanyisiwe ngamakhandlela amancane, uhlobo, kumabhaluni, abe nomthelela we kubangela imililo ezindaweni ezimbalwa ohlangothini lwakwa-Israyeli locingo u-Israyeli asebenzise ukubiyela kulo lonke iGaza Strip, okwenza abantu abayizigidi ezi-2 abahlala eGaza babe yiziboshwa ejele elivulekile. Ngenye yezingcezu zomhlaba ezinabantu abaningi kakhulu emhlabeni. Futhi yilokhu ababhekene nakho.

Futhi ekuphenduleni la mabhaluni asemoyeni, i-Israel Air Force ibuyile, nsuku zonke, ihlasela ngamabhomu lokho Faka isicelo izinhloso zamasosha, njenge Imigudu, obekukhona esetshenziswa esikhathini esedlule, akukho zinkomba zokusetshenziswa kwakamuva ngezinjongo zempi, yiHamas nezinye izinhlangano, kepha zisetshenziselwa ikakhulu ukushushumbisa ezintweni ezifana nokudla nemithi, okuyi ayikwazi dlula ezindaweni zokuhlola zakwa-Israyeli.

Ngakho-ke kulowo mongo, ukukhula kwe-Israeli kuyinto eyingozi kakhulu, lapho abantu baseGaza bengababaleki abangama-80%, futhi kulabo 80%, 80% ngokuphelele othembekile kuma-ejensi osizo angaphandle, i-UN kanye nabanye, ngokudla okuyisisekelo kokuphila. Lesi yisimo sabantu esisengozini emangalisayo, futhi yilokho amasosha akwa-Israyeli alandelayo. Isimo esesabekayo, futhi siya ngokuba sibi.

JJ: Kubukeka kubalulekile ukukugcina lokhu engqondweni njengoba sifunda izindaba zezindaba ezithi lokhu ukuhlaselwa kweHamas, okwenza kuzwakale….

I-PB: Iqiniso ukuthi iHamas iqhuba uhulumeni, njengoba enjalo, eGaza — uhulumeni onamandla amancane kakhulu, amandla amancane kakhulu, ukwenza okuningi ukusiza izimpilo zabantu. Kepha abantu beHamas bangabantu baseGaza. Bahlala emakamu ababaleki afanayo, nemindeni yabo, njengabo bonke abantu. Ngakho-ke lo mqondo wokuthi abakwa-Israyeli bathi, "Silandela iHamas, ”kusho ukuthi ngandlela thile ibutho elihlukile, elingekho lapho kuhlala khona abantu.

Futhi-ke, i-US kanye ne-Israelis nabanye bathi ukuthi njengobufakazi bokuthi abantu be-Hamas abanandaba nabantu babo, ngoba bahlala phakathi kwabantu abangekho emphakathini. Njengokungathi iGaza inesikhala, nezinketho zokuthi ungalibeka kuphi ihhovisi noma yini. Akukhathaleli nje amaqiniso asemhlabathini, nokuthi isimo sibi kanjani kulo mphakathi ominyene ngokumangalisayo, ompofu ngokumangalisayo, ongenamandla abantu abayizigidi ezi-2 abangenalo izwi ngaphandle kwesiqephu somhlaba wabo esibiyelwe.

JJ: I-Israel / Palestine, kanye ne-Middle East ngokujwayelekile, kuzoba ngenye yezinkinga zenqubomgomo yezangaphandle ezibhekene nomongameli olandelayo wase-US. Yize yiziphi izingqinamba okudingeka babhekane nazo ziyingxenye yombuzo; abaningi bebezokwenza ukuthi i-US iyeke ukuzibona “izingqinamba” zayo kwamanye amazwe emhlabeni jikelele. Kepha kunokuba ngikhulume ngezikhundla ezahlukahlukene zabangenele ukhetho, bengifuna ukukucela ukuthi wabelane ngombono, ukhulume ngokuthi ukuzibandakanya kwangaphandle noma kwamazwe omhlaba okuhlonipha amalungelo abantu, okuhlonipha abantu, kungabukeka kanjani. Yini, kuwe, ezinye zezinto ezisemqoka zenqubomgomo enjalo?

I-PB: Wumqondo muni lowo: inqubomgomo yezangaphandle egxile kumalungelo esintu — into esingayibonanga lapha isikhathi eside kakhulu. Asikuboni kusuka kwamanye amazwe amaningi kakhulu, futhi, kufanele kucace, kepha sihlala kulo lokhu izwe, ngakho-ke kubaluleke kakhulu kithi. Ngingasho ukuthi cishe kunezinto ezinhlanu zokuthi lolo hlobo lwenqubomgomo yakwamanye amazwe, ukuthi imigomo yenqubomgomo enjalo ibukeka kanjani.

Cha. 1: Wenqaba umbono wokuthi ukubusa kwamasosha nezomnotho wase-US emhlabeni jikelele yiwona isizathu sokuba lokuba nenqubomgomo yezangaphandle. Esikhundleni salokho, qonda ukuthi inqubomgomo yezangaphandle kufanele isekelwe ekubambisaneni komhlaba wonke, amalungelo abantu, njengoba ushilo, uJanine, ukuhlonipha umthetho wamazwe omhlaba, unelungelo lokubonisana ngempi. Futhi real idiplomacy, okusho isu elisho ukuthi ukuzibandakanya kwezombusazwe yilokho esikwenzayo esikhundleni lokuya empini, hhayi ukuhlinzekela ngezombusazwe ukuya empini, njengoba i-US ivame ukuthembela ekubonaneni.

Futhi lokho kusho izinguquko eziningana, lezo ezicace bha. Kusho ukubona ukuthi asikho isixazululo samasosha sobushokobezi, ngakho-ke kufanele siqede lokho okubizwa nge- “Global War on Terror.” Yazi ukuthi ukulwa nenqubomgomo yezangaphandle ezindaweni ezinjenge-Afrika, lapho i- I-Africa Command ilawula kahle yonke inqubomgomo yezangaphandle yase-US ebheke e-Afrika — okumele iguqulwe. Lezo zinto zihlangene, zenqaba ukubuswa kwezempi nezomnotho, leyo Cha.

Cha. 2 kusho ukuthi sazi ukuthi okwenziwe yi-US emnothweni wempi kuhlanekezele kangakanani umphakathi wethu ekhaya. Futhi lokho kusho, ukuzibophezela ekuguquleni lokho ngokusika isabelomali sezempi-kakhulu. I- isabelomali sezempi namuhla cishe kungama- $ 737 billion; inombolo engaqondakali. Futhi siyayidinga leyo mali, impela, ekhaya. Siyayidinga ukubhekana nalolu bhubhane. Siyayidinga ngokunakekelwa kwezempilo nemfundo kanye ne-Green New Deal. Futhi nakwamanye amazwe, siyayidinga yokwanda kwamanxusa, siyayidinga ukuthola usizo lokusiza nokwakha kabusha, kanye nosizo kubantu asebeke bahlukunyezwa izimpi nezijeziso zase-US. Siyayidinga yababaleki. Siyayidinga ye-Medicare for All. Futhi siyayidinga ukushintsha okwenziwa yiPentagon, ngakho-ke iyeka ukubulala abantu.

Singaqala ngokusikwa okungu-10% uBernie Sanders wethulwa kuCongress; sizokusekela lokho. Singasekela ikholi evela ku- Abantu abangaphezu kwePentagon umkhankaso, othi kufanele usike ama- $ 200 billion, sizokuxhasa lokho. Futhi sizokweseka i-People Over Pentagon ukuthi isikhungo sami, i- Isikhungo Sezifundo Zenqubomgomo, Kanye Umkhankaso Wabantu Abangalungile kubizelwe, okungukunciphisa ama- $ 350 billion, ukunciphisa ingxenye yesabelomali sezempi; besisazophepha. Ngakho konke lokho kunguNombolo 2.

Cha. 3: Inqubomgomo yezangaphandle kufanele ivume ukuthi okwenziwe yi-US esikhathini esedlule -izenzo zamasosha, ezomnotho, ezesimo sezulu-kusezingeni eliphakeme lokuthi ngubani oshukumisayo osusa abantu emhlabeni wonke. Futhi sinesibopho sokuziphatha kanye nesisemthethweni, ngaphansi kwamazwe omhlaba umthetho, Ngakho-ke ukuhola ekuhlinzekeni ukusekelwa kwabantu, futhi banikeze isiphephelo kubo bonke labo bantu abalekile. Ngakho-ke kusho ukuthi amalungelo okufuduka kanye nababaleki kufanele abe maphakathi nenqubomgomo yezangaphandle yamalungelo abantu.

Cha. 4: Yazi ukuthi amandla ombuso wase-US ukuphatha ubudlelwano bamazwe omhlaba wonke kuholele ekutholeni ilungelo lempi ngezingxoxo, futhi, emhlabeni wonke, emhlabeni wonke. Idale inethiwekhi enkulu futhi ehlaselayo engaphezu kwe- Izisekelo zamasosha e-800 emhlabeni wonke, okucekela phansi imvelo nemiphakathi emhlabeni wonke. Futhi kuyinqubomgomo yezangaphandle yezempi. Futhi konke lokho kudinga ukubuyiselwa emuva. Amandla akufanele abe yisisekelo sobudlelwano bethu namazwe omhlaba.

Futhi okokugcina, futhi mhlawumbe okubaluleke kakhulu, futhi okunzima kunazo zonke: inqubomgomo yezangaphandle yaleli lizwe kufanele yenqabe okwehlukile kwe-US. Kumele siwuqede umqondo wokuthi ngandlela thile singcono kunabo bonke abanye abantu, ngakho-ke sinelungelo kunoma yini esiyifunayo emhlabeni, ukucekela phansi noma yini esiyifunayo emhlabeni, ukuthatha noma yini esicabanga ukuthi siyayidinga emhlabeni. Kusho ukuthi imizamo yamasosha nezomnotho yamazwe omhlaba jikelele, obekuhloswe ngokomlando ukulawula izinsiza, ukuphoqa ukuphatha nokulawula kwe-US, lokho kufanele kuphele.

Futhi, esikhundleni salokho, sidinga enye indlela. Sidinga uhlobo olusha lwe-internationalism olwenzelwe ukuvimbela nokuxazulula izinkinga ezikhuphukayo, kahle-ke manje, kusukela ezimpini zamanje nezingaba khona, size sikwazi ukushintsha inqubomgomo yezangaphandle. Sidinga ukukhuthaza izikhali zenuzi zangempela kuwo wonke umuntu, kuzo zonke izinhlangothi zokuhlukana kwezepolitiki. Kufanele siqhamuke nezixazululo zesimo sezulu, okuyinkinga yomhlaba wonke. Kufanele sibhekane nobuphofu njengenkinga yomhlaba wonke. Kufanele sibhekane nokuvikela ababaleki njengenkinga yomhlaba wonke.

Zonke lezi yizinkinga zomhlaba ezibucayi ezidinga uhlobo olwehluke ngokuphelele lokuxhumana komhlaba wonke kunalokho esake saba nakho. Futhi lokho kusho ukwenqaba umbono wokuthi sihlukile futhi singcono futhi sihlukile nedolobha elikhanyayo egqumeni. Asikhanyi, asikhuphukeli igquma, futhi sidala izinselelo ezinkulu kubantu abahlala emhlabeni wonke.

JJ: Umbono ubucayi kakhulu. Akuyona into engathandeki neze. Kubaluleke kakhulu ukuba nokuthile ongabheka kukho, ikakhulukazi esikhathini lapho ukunganeliseki ngesimo se-quo kuphela kwendawo yabantu abaningi abavumelana ngayo.

Ngifuna ukukubuza kuphela, ekugcineni, ngendima yeminyakazo. Wena wathi, ku Intando yeningi Manje! emuva ngoJanuwari, ngemuva kwaleyo mpikiswano yeDemocratic, "laba bantu bazohamba kuphela lapho sibaphusha khona." Lokho, uma kukhona, kucace bha, ezinyangeni ezimbalwa kamuva. Akuseqiniso kangako ezindabeni zamazwe aphesheya kunezezasekhaya. Khuluma kancane, ekugcineni, ngendima yeminyakazo yabantu.

I-PB: Ngicabanga ukuthi sikhuluma sobabili isimiso futhi Ikakhulu. Umgomo ngukuthi ukunyakaza komphakathi bekulokhu kuyikho okwenza ushintsho lwezenhlalo oluqhubekayo kuleli lizwe, nasemazweni amaningi emhlabeni jikelele. Lokho akuyona into entsha nehlukile; lokho kube yiqiniso ingunaphakade.

Okuyiqiniso ikakhulukazi kulokhu, futhi lokhu kuzoba yiqiniso — futhi lokhu angikusho njengomuntu ohlangothini oluthile, kodwa njengomhlaziyi nje, ngibheka ukuthi amaqembu ahlukahlukene nabadlali abahlukahlukene bakuphi — uma kuzoba nohulumeni omusha oholwa nguJoe UBiden, obekucaca kakhulu kubahlaziyi ababheka iqhaza lakhe emhlabeni, ngukuthi yena ukholelwa ukuthi isipiliyoni sakhe kunqubomgomo yezangaphandle yisudi yakhe eqinile. Akuyona enye yezindawo lapho efuna ukubambisana futhi ngokubambisana, nephiko likaBernie Sanders weqembu, nabanye. Ucabanga ukuthi lokhu kungukufa kwakhe; nakhu akwaziyo, kulapho enamandla khona, kulapho ezolawula khona. Futhi mhlawumbe le yindawo lapho uphiko lweBiden lweDemocratic Party lukude kakhulu kunemigomo ebanjwe wuphiko oluqhubekela phambili lweDemocratic Party.

Kube nokunyakaza kwesobunxele kuphiko lweBiden, ngezinkinga ezizungezile isimo sezulu, ezinye zezinkinga ezizungezile izisebenzi zomnyango wofuduko, futhi lezo zikhala ziyancipha. Akunjalo okwamanje embuzweni wenqubomgomo yezangaphandle. Futhi ngenxa yalesi sizathu, futhi, ngaphezu kwesimiso sokuthi ukunyakaza kuhlala kuyisihluthulelo, kulokhu, kunjalo kuphela ukunyakaza okuzophoqelela-ngamandla evoti, amandla ezitaladini, amandla okuletha ingcindezi ethwala amalungu eCongress; nakwezokusakaza, nokuguqula inkulumo kuleli lizwe — lokho kuzophoqa ukuthi kubhekwe uhlobo olusha lwenqubomgomo yezangaphandle, futhi ekugcineni lusetshenziswe kuleli zwe. Sinomsebenzi omningi okufanele siwenze kulezo zinguquko. Kepha uma sibheka ukuthi yini ezothatha, ngumbuzo wezinhlangano zomphakathi.

Kukhona abadumile umugqa kusuka ku-FDR, ngenkathi ehlanganisa ndawonye lokho okwakuzoba yi-New Deal-ngaphambi kokuthi kucatshangwe iDili New Green, kwakukhona iDili Elisha elidala, hhayi-eliluhlaza, iDili entsha ye-racist, njll., kodwa isethi ebalulekile yezinyathelo phambili. Futhi ezingxoxweni zakhe nezishoshovu eziningi zezinyunyana, izishoshovu ezinenqubekela phambili kanye nezenhlalakahle ezihlangane nomongameli: Kubo bonke labo, lokho okwaziwayo ukuthi wakusho ekupheleni kwale mihlangano uthi, "Kulungile, ngiyakuqonda okufunayo Mina ukwenza. Manje phuma uye lapho ungenze ngikwenze. ”

Kwakungukuqonda ukuthi wayengenayo inhloko-dolobha yezepolitiki eyedwa ukubhala nje imemo futhi okuthile kwakuzokwenzeka ngomlingo, ukuthi kwakudingeka kube nezinhlangano zomphakathi ezitaladini ezifuna lokho, ngaleso sikhathi, ayevumelana nakho, kodwa wayengenawo amandla okuzakhela ngokwakhe. Yiminyakazo eyenza lokho kwenzeke. Sizobhekana nezimo ezinjengalezo ngokuzayo, futhi kufanele senze into efanayo. Ukunyakaza komphakathi okuzokwenza ushintsho lube nokwenzeka.
