"Impi Imnandi" yisihloko esiyindida sencwadi entsha enhle yezithombe. Isihlokwana sithi “The New York Times I-Pictorial Guide to the Glamour of Armed Conflict.” Kukhona inkanyezi emva kwalawo magama, futhi iholela kulawa: “(Lapho umbhali echaza ukuthi kungani engasafundi. I-New York Times)) Umbhali akakaze achaze ukuthi kungani efunde incwadi New York Times ukuqala.
Umbhali we le ncwadi emangalisayo, David Shields, ukhethe izithombe zempi yemibala eshicilelwe ekhasini lokuqala le New York Times eminyakeni engu-14 edlule. Uwahlele ngezindikimba, wafaka ama-epigrams esigabeni ngasinye, futhi wengeza isingeniso esifushane, kanye negama langemuva lika-Dave Hickey.
Abanye bethu kudala bephikisana nokubhalisa noma ukukhangisa ku New York Times, njengoba kwenza ngisho namaqembu okuthula. Sifunda izihloko ngezikhathi ezithile ngaphandle kokuzikhokhela noma ukwamukela umbono wazo wezwe. Siyazi ukuthi umthelela we Times ilele ngokuyinhloko endleleni elithonya ngayo imibiko “yezindaba” zethelevishini.
Kodwa kuthiwani Times abafundi? Umthelela omkhulu iphepha elinawo kuwo ungase ungabi semagameni eliwakhethayo futhi eliwashiyileyo, kodwa kunalokho ube sezithombeni ezifakelwe amagama. Izithombe ezikhethwe yi-Shields futhi zashicilelwa ngefomethi enkulu, eyodwa ekhasini ngalinye, zinamandla futhi zinhle kakhulu, ziphuma ku-epic evusa amadlingozi nenganekwane. Ngokungangabazeki umuntu wayengawafaka kwentsha I-star wars imuvi ngaphandle kokuqaphela abantu abaningi.
Izithombe nazo zizolile: ukushona kwelanga ogwini olugcwele izihlahla zesundu - empeleni umfula i-Euphrates; ubuso besosha bubonakala nje phakathi kwenkundla yopopi.
Sibona amasosha ephethe i-swimming pool - mhlawumbe umbono ozofika ngolunye usuku e-Homeland, njengoba ezinye izinto ezibonwa kuqala ezithombeni ezivela ezimpini zakwamanye amazwe sezivele zikhona. Sibona ukuzilolonga nokuqeqeshwa kwezempi okuhlangene, njengasekamu lasehlobo eliwugwadule, eligcwele ubungane ezimeni ezinzima. Kukhona i-adventure, ezemidlalo, nemidlalo. Isosha libukeka lijabulile iqhinga lalo njengoba libambe inhloko-dummy nesigqoko sokuzivikela esihlokweni senduku phambi kwefasitela ukuze lidutshulwe.
Impi ibonakala iyinkambu yasehlobo ejabulisayo kanye nesiko elingathi sína, elinesizotha, nelihloniphekile, njengoba sibona izithombe zomakadebona asebekhulile, izingane ezithanda impi, namafulegi ase-US abuyela Ekhaya. Ingxenye yokubaluleka komsebenzi wokunakekela nowokusiza abanye ovezwa izithombe zamasosha eduduza izingane okungenzeka ukuthi zisanda kuzintandane. Sibona amasosha angcwele ase-US evikela abantu abakade beqhumisa amabhomu ezweni labo futhi befaka uthuthuva. Siyalubona uthando lwamaqhawe ethu ngoMkhuzi wawo ovakashile, uGeorge W. Bush.
Ngezinye izikhathi impi ingaba nzima noma ibe nzima. Kukhona ukuhlupheka okuncane okudabukisayo. Kwesinye isikhathi kushuba ngendlela edabukisayo. Kodwa ingxenye enkulu ukufa okuyisicefe nokungenasithunzi okungekho muntu okukhathalela ngempela kufika kubantu bakwamanye amazwe (ngaphandle kwe-United States kukhona abantu bangaphandle. yonke indawo) abasala emseleni behamba abantu.
Impi ngokwayo, phakathi nendawo, iyisimangaliso sezobuchwepheshe esikhishwe ngesibindi ebuhleni bezinhliziyo zethu eziphakeme saya endaweni esemuva lapho abantu bendawo bevumele khona kanye amakhaya abo ukuthi aphenduke amanxiwa. Indawo yokuhlala engenalutho iboniswa ngesithombe sesihlalo esisemgwaqweni. Kunamabhodlela amanzi aqondile phansi. Kubukeka sengathi umhlangano webhodi usanda kuphela.
Noma kunjalo, kuzo zonke izinkinga zempi, abantu bajabule kakhulu. Bayazala bashade. Amasosha abuyela ekhaya evela ekamu ngemva komsebenzi omuhle owenziwe. Amasosha Asolwandle amahle ahlangana nabantu abavamile. Abashadile bamukela onkulunkulu babo abacashile ababuyile emzabalazweni. Umfanyana waseMelika, obanjwe umama wakhe omomothekayo, ugigiyela ngokujabula ethuneni likaBaba wakhe owashona (ngenjabulo, umuntu kumelwe acabange) e-Afghanistan.
Okungenani kulokhu kukhetha kwezithombe ezinamandla, asiboni abantu abazalwa beneziphambeko ezimbi ezibangelwa ubuthi bezikhali zase-US. Asiboni abantu abashadile emishadweni beshaywa imicibisholo yase-US. Asiziboni izidumbu zase-US zidindilize emgodini. Asiyiboni imibhikisho engenalo udlame yemisebenzi yase-US. Asiwaboni amakamu okuhlushwa nawokufa. Asikuboni ukuhlukumezeka kwalabo abaphila ngaphansi kwamabhomu. Asiluboni uvalo uma kukhahlelwa izicabha, ngendlela ebesiyokwenza ngayo uma amasosha - njengamaphoyisa - ecelwa ukuba afake amakhamera omzimba. Asiyiboni ilebula ethi “MADE IN THE USA” ezikhalini nhlangothi zombili zempi. Asiwaboni amathuba okuthula abegwenywe ngokuzimisela. Asiwaboni amasosha ase-US ebamba iqhaza kumbangela yawo yokuqala yokufa: ukuzibulala.
Ezimbalwa zalezo zinto zingase zivele manje nasesikhathini New York Times, kungenzeka kakhulu kwelinye ikhasi kuneliphambili. Ezinye zalezo zinto ungase ungafuni ukuzibona ngokusanhlamvu kwakho kwasekuseni. Kodwa akunakungabaza ukuthi iShields ithwebule isithombe sosuku empilweni yomsakazi wempi, nokuthi abathwebuli bezithombe, abahleli, nabaqambi abahilelekile benze okuningi ukuze kubangele iminyaka eyi-14 edlule yokufa kwabantu abaningi, ukuhlupheka, kanye nokuhlupheka. ukwesaba eMpumalanga Ephakathi njenganoma iyiphi enye New York Times intatheli noma umhleli wombhalo.

Usanda kuthola “uFernando” we-ABBA. Mayelana nowasinda empini yaseMexico naseMelika kanye nozakwabo wakudala. Ngikhalile. Ngangivame ukuhamba eduze kwamathuna amasosha eLos Angeles. Ngangingazi noyedwa kwabawile futhi ngangibazi bonke. Bangaki kithi abake bezwa ngempi yaseSpain-American? Amatshe amathuna amhlophe, umugqa phezu komugqa kuze kube yilapho ubona. Ngangivame ukungena futhi ngivele ngihambe phakathi kwabo ... ngezinyembezi zithule.
Yuck! Impi yimbi. Kufanele sikwazi ukuthola okuthile okwakha okwengeziwe ukuze i-MIC yethu ikwenze kunemishini okungenzeka kakhulu ibulale ababukele abangenacala kunezisulu ezihlosiwe.
