Lena indawo ka-Robert Reich iwebhusayithi igcwele iziphakamiso zokuthi kumele kuphikiswane kanjani nombuso weningi, ukwenyuswa kweholo elincane, kuhoxiswe umkhuba wokungalingani kwengcebo, njll. kokungu-54% wesabelomali sombuso sokuzikhethela esiphonswa kwezempi.
Uma umhlaziyi onjalo eqaphela inkinga yempi, kufanelekile ukunaka ukuthi uzimisele ukuya kude kangakanani. Yebo, bazophikisana nezindleko zezezimali zempi engaba khona, kuyilapho beqhubeka nokunganaki izindleko eziphindwe kashumi zokusebenzisa imali evamile kwezempi. Kodwa kuphi lapho ukuphikiswa kwabo kwempi okungajwayelekile kusilela khona?
Hhayi-ke, nakhu, okokuqala: Reich's new iposi iqala kanje: “Sibonakala sisondela kakhulu empini yomhlaba emelene noMbuso WamaSulumane.” Lokho kufatalism okungenakuzisiza akubonakali kokunye ukuphawula kwakhe. Asihloselwe ukubusa ngentando yeningi, ubumpofu, noma uhwebo lwebhizinisi. Kodwa sigwetshelwe impi. Kuza kithi njengesimo sezulu, futhi kuzodingeka sikuphathe ngendlela esingakwazi ngayo. Futhi kuzoba yindaba “yomhlaba” noma ngabe ngokuyinhloko i-4% yabantu e-United States enebutho lezempi elibambe iqhaza kuyo.
“Akekho umuntu ohluzekile omukela impi,” kusho uReich. "Nokho uma siya empini ngokumelene ne-ISIS kufanele sibheke izinto ze-5." Akekho, okuhlanganisa no-Reich ngokwazi kwami, owake washo lokhu mayelana ne-plutocracy, i-fascism, ubugqila, ukuhlukunyezwa kwezingane, ukudlwengula, ukuhlukaniswa. Zibone ngeso lengqondo ufunda lokhu: “Akekho umuntu ohluzekile engqondweni owamukela ubudlova obukhulu bezibhamu nokudubulana esikoleni, nokho uma sizovumela zonke lezi zingane zifele izinzuzo zabakhi bezibhamu kumelwe siqaphe izinto ezinhlanu.” Ubani ongasho lokho? Zingaba yini izinto ezi-5? Okuwukuphela kwabantu abakhuluma ngale ndlela ngokucekelwa phansi kwesimo sezulu yilabo abakholelwa ukuthi sesidlulile eqophelweni lokungasenambuyiselo, ngaphezu kwanoma yikuphi ukulawulwa komuntu. Kungani ama-liberal aseMelika “ephikisana” nempi ngokwenza sengathi ayinakugwenywa bese ebheka izici ezithile zomonakalo wayo?
U-Reich kumele aqaphele ukuthi iningi leYurophu liyanqikaza kakhulu ukuhlanganyela kwenye impi yase-US, ukuthi ama-proxies aseMpumalanga Ephakathi cishe akunakwenzeka ukudlula, nokuthi uMongameli Obama usagcizelela impi elinganiselwe eyenza isimo sibe sibi kancane kancane. Kodwa ngisola ukuthi uReich, njengabantu abaningi, usebone okuningi "ngokhetho" kangangokuthi ucabanga ukuthi i-United States isizoba nomongameli omusha, nokuthi kuzoba yiRiphabhulikhi ehlanyiswa yimpi noma u-Hillary Clinton. . Nokho, intuthuko enjalo isizodlula unyaka ngaphambi kokuba ifike, okwenza ukushona kukaReich kucasule kakhulu.
Ake sibheke izinto ezinhlanu okufanele sihlale sizibhekile.
"1. Umthwalo wokulwa nempi kumele wabiwe kabanzi phakathi kwamaMelika. Ibutho lamanje laseMelika 'lamavolontiya' lakhiwe kakhulu ngamadoda nabesifazane abahola kancane abakhokhelwa amasosha okuyinketho engcono kakhulu. 'Sibheke indaba ebuhlungu yabantu abasha abanezinketho ezimbalwa ezithwele umthwalo omkhulu,' kusho uGreg Speeter, umqondisi omkhulu weNational Priorities Project, cwaningo bathole imindeni ehola kancane kanye nephakathi nendawo inikeza amasosha amaningi kakhulu kunemindeni ehola ngaphezu kwama-$ 60,000 ngonyaka. Akulungile lokho. Ngaphezu kwalokho, lapho iningi labantu baseMelika lithembele enanini elincane labantu ukuthi lisilwele izimpi, umphakathi uyayeka ukuzwa ukubulawa kwezimpi ezinjalo. Kusukela ngeMpi Yezwe II kuze kube sekupheleni kweMpi YaseVietnam, ngo-July 1973, cishe yonke insizwa yaseMelika yayibhekene nethemba lokubuthelwa eButhweni Lezempi. Ngokuqinisekile, izingane eziningi zabacebile zathola izindlela zokuzigwema. Kodwa uhlaka okungenani lwasabalalisa isibopho futhi lwakhulisa ukuzwela komphakathi ezindlekweni zabantu zempi. Uma siya empini yaphansi ngokumelene ne-ISIS, kufanele sikucabangele ngokujulile ukubuyisela uhlaka. "
Umsangano lo. Njengokudubula kwebhange okuhloselwe ukuvimbela impi ngokungaqondile kuyingozi enkulu futhi akuqinisekile. Njengendlela yokuthuthukisa impi ngokuyenza ibe “ilungile,” ishaya indiva ngokudabukisayo iningi lezisulu, okuzoba ngabantu abahlala ezindaweni lapho impi ilwelwa khona.
"2. Akumele sidele inkululeko yethu yomphakathi. Izikhungo zezinhloli zase-US azisenalo igunya ezazinalo ku-post-9/11 USA Patriot Act lokuqoqa amafoni abantu baseMelika namanye amarekhodi. I-NSA manje kufanele ithole imvume yenkantolo yalokhu kufinyelela. Kepha ngenxa yokuhlaselwa kweParis, umqondisi we-FBI kanye nezinye izikhulu zezomthetho zase-US manje uthi badinga ukufinyelela olwazini olubethelwe kuma-smartphone, amarekhodi omuntu siqu nawebhizinisi abasolwa ngokuthi bangamaphekula, 'nokucofa ngocingo' kwabasolwa abasebenzisa omakhalekhukhwini abaningi abalahlwayo. Impi ingase futhi iholele ekuboshweni kwabasolwa kanye nokumiswa kwamalungelo omthethosisekelo, njengoba sibonile kabuhlungu. Donald Trump uthi uzodinga amaSulumane aseMelika ukuthi abhalise kusizindalwazi sombuso, futhi uyenqaba ukukhipha ukuthi wonke amaSulumane aphathe ukuhlonza okukhethekile kwezenkolo. "Kuzodingeka senze izinto esingakaze sizenze ngaphambili….kuzodingeka senze izinto ezithile obekungacabangeki ukuthi bezingakaze zicatshangwe ngonyaka odlule," uyanezela. Kufanele siqaphele ukuthi sigcina inkululeko esiyilwelayo.”
Lokhu kuyakhohlisa. I-FBI idinga ukugqekeza ukubethela kodwa iyakugwema ngomusa ukuhlola noma yini engabhaliwe? Izimpi ziphuca inkululeko yabantu kodwa zilwelwa “bona”? Empeleni akukaze kube nempi engazange isuse inkululeko, futhi kubonakala kungenakwenzeka kakhulu ukuthi ingaba khona. Lokhu sekuqondwe ngokucacile nangokunembile amakhulu eminyaka manje.
"3. Kumele sinciphise ukufa kwezakhamuzi ezingenacala phesheya. Ukuhlasela kwamabhomu sekuvele kubangele inani elibi labantu, okube nomthelela ekufudukeni kwenqwaba yababaleki. Ngenyanga edlule iqembu elizimele lokuqapha i-Airwars lasho okungenani Izakhamizi ze-459 babulawa ukuhlasela kwezindiza zomfelandawonye eSyria ngonyaka odlule. Amanye amaqembu aqaphayo, okuhlanganisa neSyrian Observatory for Human Rights, nawo afuna ukufa kwabantu okubalulekile. Abanye abalimala abavamile abanakugwenywa. Kodwa kufanele siqinisekise ukuthi ziyancishiswa - hhayi nje ngenxa yokukhathazeka kobuntu. Konke ukufa kwezakhamuzi kudala izitha ezengeziwe. Futhi kufanele senze ingxenye yethu ukuze sithathe ingxenye efanelekile yababaleki baseSyria. "
Ukunciphisa ukubulala okungagwemeki? Ukusiza imindeni eyasuswa ngokungenakugwenywa ephenduke ababaleki ngokucekelwa kwemizi yabo? Lena i-imperialism encane emnene.
"4. Akumele sikubekezelele ubandlululo olumelene namaSulumane e-United States. Kakade, abangenele ukhetho lweRiphabhulikhi abaphambili babhebhethekisa amalangabi. UBen Carson uthi akekho umSulumane okufanele abe ngumongameli. Trump uthi 'izinkulungwane' zama-Arab-Americans zajabula lapho i-Twin Towers yehla ngo-9/11 - ubuso obunesibindi amanga. UTed Cruz Ufuna ukwamukela amaKristu ababaleki abavela eSyria [sic] kodwa hhayi amaSulumane. Jeb Bush uthi Usizo lwaseMelika lwababaleki kufanele lugxile kumaKristu. UMarco Rubio Ufuna ukuvala 'noma iyiphi indawo lapho ama-radicals ekhuthazwa khona,' kuhlanganise nama-mosque aseMelika. Kuyadabukisa ukuthi abagaqele isikhundla sokuba ngumongameli welizwe lamaRepublicans eMelika babhebhethekisa inzondo enje. Ubandlululo olunjalo alugcini nje ngokunyanyisa ngokokuziphatha. Idlala futhi ezandleni ze-ISIS. "
Hmm. Ungasho impi yokugcina engabandakanyi ukugqugquzelwa kobandlululo noma ukucwaswa kwabokufika? Njengamanje ukucwaswa kwabokufika sekugxilile kangangokuthi akekho umbhali wephephandaba wase-US ongaphakamisa iphrojekthi ezobulala izakhamizi zase-US ngenkathi "enciphisa" ukufa okunjalo, kodwa ukuphakamisa isiphetho esinjalo kubantu bakwamanye amazwe kuthathwa njengenkululeko futhi kunenqubekela phambili.
"5. Impi kumele ikhokhwe ngezintela eziphezulu kwabacebile. Isonto ngaphambi kokuhlasela kwamaphekula eParis, iSenate yaphasisa a $ 607 billion umthethosivivinywa wokusetshenziswa kwezimali kwezokuvikela, onamasenenja angama-93 avuna futhi aba-3 baphikiswa (okuhlanganisa noBernie Sanders). INdlu isivele iphasisa, 370 kuya ku-58. U-Obama uthe uzoyisayina. Leso sabelo sezokuvikela sigcwele ingulube kosonkontileka bezempi - okuhlanganisa ne-F-35 Joint Strike Fighter ka-Lockheed Martin, uhlelo lwezikhali olubiza kakhulu emlandweni. Manje amaRiphabhlikhi afuna ukusetshenziswa kwezempi okwengeziwe. Ngeke sibavumele basebenzise impi njengezaba zokusika i-Social Security kanye ne-Medicare, noma izinhlelo zabampofu. Impi kufanele ikhokhwe ngendlela ebesikhokha ngayo izimpi - ngentela ephezulu, ikakhulukazi kwabacebile. Njengoba sibheke empini emelene ne-ISIS, kufanele siqaphe - ukwaba imithwalo ngendlela efanele yokuthi ubani obizelwe ukulwa impi, ukuvikela inkululeko yomphakathi, ukuvikela izakhamuzi ezingenacala phesheya, ukugwema inzondo nokucwasa, kanye nokusabalalisa izindleko ngendlela efanele. lokukhokhela impi. Lezi akuzona nje izinhloso ezifanele. Ziphinde ziyizisekelo zamandla esizwe sethu.”
Yebo abacebile kufanele bakhokhe intela eyengeziwe futhi wonke umuntu akhokhe kancane. Lokho kuyiqiniso ngezintela zamapaki noma izintela zezikole. Kungaba iqiniso futhi ngezintela ukukhokhela umsebenzi wokuqhumisa izixhobo zamakhorali noma isinyathelo esisha sokugwiliza amakati, kodwa ubani ongathethelela izinto ezinjalo ngokuwaxhasa ngezimali ngendlela efanele?
Eqinisweni, impi yimbi kakhulu kunanoma yini enye ongayicabanga, kuhlanganise nezinto eziningi esizenqaba ngokuphelele ngokwesabeka kokuziphatha. Impi iwukubulala abantu abaningi, iletha isihluku kanye nokuwohloka ngokuphelele kokuziphatha, ingumbhubhisi wethu ophezulu wemvelo kuhlanganise nesimo sezulu, ibeka engozini esikhundleni sokuvikela - njengoba nje ubandlululo ludlala ezandleni ze-ISIS, kanjalo nokuqhunyiswa kwamabhomu ne-ISIS. Impi - nokunye okuningi, ukusetshenziswa kwezempi okujwayelekile - kubulala ikakhulukazi ngokuphambukisa izinsiza. Ingxenyana yalokho okumoshiwe ingaqeda indlala. Ngisho ukuthi i-3% yezindleko zezempi zase-US zingaqeda indlala emhlabeni wonke. Izifo zingaqedwa. Izinhlelo zamandla zingenziwa zisimeme. Izinsiza zinkulu kangako. Ezezindlu, imfundo, namanye amalungelo angaqinisekiswa, e-United States nakwamanye amazwe.
Impela kuhle ukuthi abahlaziyi benkululeko baveze ezinye zezinkinga zempi. Kodwa ukuwaveza njengamukelekayo futhi angenakugwenywa akusizi.
Ngakho yini okufanele yenziwe? Ngabe ngiyayithanda i-ISIS? Kuyisifiso sami ukuthi sonke sife? Kanjalo.
bengi ibhulogi izimpendulo zami kulowo mbuzo izinyanga eziningi. Ngisanda kubuza uJohan Galtung impendulo yakhe, futhi ungakwazi mlalele lapha.
