World BEYOND War ine isikhathi eside kusekelwa imizamo ukumisa izindiza ezinomsindo, ezingcolisa i-Navy jet phezu kwamapaki ombuso e-Washington State.
Manje a umbiko nguMantshi Omkhulu wase-United States uJustice J. Richard Creatura uthole i Times Seattle ibhodi lokuhlela ukuphakamisa uhlobo oluthile “lokuvumelana”.
Ezinye izingcaphuno ezikhethiwe:
Lapha, naphezu kwerekhodi elibi lokuphatha, elihlanganisa cishe amakhasi angu-200,000 ezifundo, imibiko, amazwana, nokunye okunjalo, i-Navy yakhetha izindlela zokuhlola idatha esekela umgomo wayo wokwandisa imisebenzi ye-Growler. I-Navy yenza lokhu ngezindleko zomphakathi kanye nemvelo, ingayinaki idatha engeke isekele lo mphumela ohlosiwe. Noma, ukuze ngibolekwe amazwi omhlaziyi wezemidlalo owaziwayo uVin Scully, kubonakala sengathi iButho Lezempi Lasemanzini liye lasebenzisa izibalo ezithile “njengoba isidakwa sisebenzisa isigxobo sesibani: ukuze sisekele, hhayi ukukhanyisa.”
Lapho ibika ngomthelela wemvelo wokukhishwa kukaphethiloli wakwa-Growler, i-Navy ayizange ibike inani langempela lokukhishwa kukaphethiloli we-Growler futhi yehluleka ukudalula ukuthi ibingabandakanyi noma yikuphi ukukhishwa kwezindiza ezingaphezu kwamamitha angu-3,000. Ngisho nangemva kokuthola ukuphawula ngalolu daba, iNavy yehlulekile ukudalula ukubikwa kwayo ngaphansi futhi yaluchitha lolu daba ngokujwayelekile.
Mayelana nomthelela walokhu kukhula komsebenzi wokufunda kwezingane, i-Navy ivumile izifundo eziningi ezaphetha ngokuthi umsindo wendiza uzoba nomthelela olinganiselayo ekufundeni kodwa waphetha ngokunganaki ukuthi ngenxa yokuthi awukwazi ukulinganisa kahle ukuthi ukusebenza okwenyuka kuzophazamisa kanjani ukufunda kwezingane, akukho okunye. ukuhlaziya kwakudingeka.
Mayelana nomthelela wokukhuphuka komsindo wendiza ezinhlotsheni zezinyoni ezihlukahlukene, uMbutho Wamasosha Wasemanzini washo ngokuphindaphindiwe ukuthi ukwanda komsindo kuzoba nomthelela othize ezinhlobonhlobo zezinyoni ezitholakala endaweni ethintekile kodwa wabe esehluleka ukwenza ukuhlaziya okuqondene nezinhlobo zezinyoni ukuze kutholwe ukuthi ezinye izinhlobo zezinyoni. izothinteka kakhulu kunabanye. Esikhundleni salokho, i-Navy yamane yaphetha ngokuthi izinhlobo ezithile zezilwane azizange zithinteke kabi bese zikhishwa ukuthi zonke ezinye izinhlobo ngeke zithinteke, noma.
Maqondana nokuhlola ezinye izindlela ezinengqondo zokunwetshwa kwe-Growler e-NASWI, okwakudingeka Ibutho Lamanzi Lamanzi ukuba likwenze, Ibutho Lezempi Lamasosha Lasemanzini linqabile ukususa ukusebenza kwe-Growler e-El Centro, eCalifornia, laphetha ngamafuphi ngokuthi ukuthutha okunjalo kuzobiza kakhulu futhi nokususa ukusebenza. kuleyo ndawo kuzoba nezinselelo zayo zemvelo. I-Navy's cursory rationale yayingenangqondo futhi ingenangqondo futhi ayinikezi isisekelo esivumelekile sokwenqaba enye indlela ye-El Centro.
Ngalezi zizathu, iNkantolo incoma ukuthi iNkantolo Yesifunda ithole ukuthi i-FEIS yephule i-NEPA futhi inikeze zonke izinqumo ezifinyeziwe ngokwengxenye futhi iziphika ngokwengxenye. UDkt. 87, 88, 92. Futhi, iNkantolo inika abamangali imvume yokuhambisa ubufakazi obengeziwe berekhodi ukubhekana nezindaba ezithile. UDkt. 85. Ngokucabangela ukuthi iNkantolo Yesifunda ilandela lesi sincomo, kufanele iyale isifinyezo esingeziwe mayelana nekhambi elifanele lokwephulwa kwe-NEPA okuchazwe lapha.
Ingabe lokhu kubukeka njengendaba lapho uKhongolose wendawo kanye nenhlangano yezikhali eziphezulu u-Adam Smith kufanele bangenelele baxazulule izindaba, njengoba Times Seattle iphakamisa? Noma ingabe kubonakala kuyithuba eliyivelakancane lapho ilungu lesikhungo sokwahlulela saseMelika lenqabile ukukhothama phambi kukaNkulunkulu Wezempi futhi laphimisela ngokuthi “Akanazingubo!” Lokhu kungeke yini kube yithuba lezinkantolo ukuthi empeleni zihloniphe amalungelo abantu ngokumelene nesikhungo esihlala siqhumisa amabhomu ezindaweni ezikude egameni lamalungelo abantu?
Iphephandaba lendawo, i South Irekhodi le-Whidbey, ifuna kakhulu amajethi ahlukanisa izindlebe, alimaza ingqondo yengane ukuze agcine umsindo wenkululeko, kodwa isishoshovu sendawo u-Tom Ewell ubathumelele le ncwadi engashicilelwe:
Ngokuvamile ngivumelana nokuhlelwa kwe-News-Times yango-12/15, "Icala elibhekene neNavy akulona inhlolovo yaBakhulisi." Kodwa futhi akuyona nje inhlolovo ekuphawuleni ukunganeli kocwaningo lomthelela amakheli omthetho. Okubaluleke kakhulu okutholwe embikweni kamantshi kunokweseka lokho abagxeki bamaGrowers abalokhu bezama ukukusho iminyaka manje: Umbutho Wamasosha Amanzi umane uzizwa unelungelo lokuzithathela izinqumo, ngokusekelwe emininingwaneni yawo yokuzenzela kanye nolwazi, ngokungaguquki. ukunganaki impilo, ukuphepha, kanye nenhlalakahle yabantu umthelela womsindo weGrowler. Umbiko wemantshi ugcina uveze ukuzikhukhumeza kanye namaqhinga angenamsebenzi asetshenziswa iNavy ukugwema nokuphika umonakalo womsindo owedlulele. Njengoba umbiko usho, ngemva kwezinkulungwane zamakhasi kanye nezifundo ngemithelela emibi ehlukahlukene kwezempilo, izingane, umnotho, kanye nemvelo, i-Navy iphetha ngakho konke lokhu akusho lutho uma kungahambisani nezintshisakalo zabo. Futhi ukuze bagcizelele ukuzikhukhumeza kwabo ngokulimala komsindo, baye bahlongoza ukuwenza ube kubi kakhulu ngokwengeza amajethi amasha angamashumi amathathu emikhumbi yabo ezokwandisa umonakalo odalwa umsindo.
Udaba oluyinhloko sekuyisikhathi eside kuwukungavumelani mayelana nendlela yokukala umsindo endaweni. Ngokuvumelana nokugxeka kukamantshi ilungelo lokucatshangelwa ukuthi loMbutho Wasolwandle wokusebenzisa ulwazi olufeza izintshisekelo zawo kuphela, uMbutho Wamasosha Amanzi uhlale ubambelele ekutheni unezinga elilodwa lomsindo elamukelekayo elizoliqaphela. Bakhetha ngokuqinile ukungawunaki umthelela womsindo osheshayo abantu abawuthola ngokuqondile ngaphansi kwamajethi - ngokuvamile amahora amaningi ngesikhathi - futhi esikhundleni salokho balinganisele idatha ecasulayo ngokuyihlukanisa ngezinsuku zonyaka. Ngaleyo ndlela bayakwazi ukusungula isilinganiso sabo esikhethekile esikude nezinga langempela lomsindo esizeni. Uma sibhekwa ngamehlo abomvu, umuntu angaphetha ngokuthi inqubomgomo ye-Navy yokukala umsindo ayigcini nje ngokusebenzela wena kodwa, uma sikhuluma iqiniso, ayihlonipheki.
Ngo-12/18. I-Whidbey Record iphinde yanyathelisa isihloko se-Everett Herald esiphakamisa ukuthi umbiko kamantshi uyithuba lokuxoxisana. Ngemva kweminyaka eminingi kangaka yokungahloniphi kanye nokwenqaba koMbutho Wezempi Wasemanzini ukucabangela ngisho namazwi alabo abathintwe ngabaHlubi ngaphandle kokuphoqwa ukuba benze kanjalo - futhi nalapho nginganaki imininingwane edaliwe - ngikhathazekile ngokuthi kungani abantu manje sebezolindela futhi bathembe Ibutho Lamanzi. ukuzibandakanya ezingxoxweni zokwethembeka.
