NguDavid Swanson, World BEYOND War, May 3, 2021

Ukuvuselelwa konyaka kulo nyaka ku World BEYOND WarIphrojekthi ye-Mapping Militarism isebenzisa uhlelo olusha ngokuphelele lwemephu olwenziwe nguMqondisi Wezobuchwepheshe uMarc Eliot Stein. Sicabanga ukuthi yenza umsebenzi ongcono kunanini ngaphambili wokukhombisa idatha yokwakha ukufudumala nokwenza ukuthula emabalazweni omhlaba. Futhi isebenzisa ukubikwa kwedatha okusha ngamathrendi wakamuva.

Uma u vakashela indawo ye-Mapping Militarism, uzothola izigaba eziyisikhombisa ezixhunywe ngaphezulu, iningi lazo liqukethe amamephu amaningi abhalwe ohlangothini lwesobunxele. Idatha yemephu ngayinye ingabonakala ekubukweni kwemephu noma ekubukweni kohlu, futhi idatha ekubukweni kohlu ingahle ihlelwe nganoma iyiphi ikholomu ochofoza kuyo. Amamephu / uhlu oluningi lunedatha iminyaka eminingana, futhi ungabuyela emuva ngokudlule ukuze ubone ukuthi yini okushintshiwe. Yonke imephu ifaka isixhumanisi esiya kumthombo wedatha.

Amamephu afakiwe anjengokulandelayo:

IMFAZWE
izimpi ezikhona
isiteleka se-drone
Iziteleka zomoya zase-US nase-allies
amasosha e-Afghanistan

IMALI
ukuchitha
ukuchitha umuntu ngamunye

IZIHLOKO
izikhali zithunyelwa kwamanye amazwe
Izikhali zase-US zingenisiwe
“Usizo” lwezempi lwaseMelika lutholakele

ENCLEAR
inani lezimpi zenuzi

AMAKHEMIKHALI NEBHAYOLOGI
amakhemikhali kanye / noma izikhali zebhayoloji

UMBUSO WASE-US
Izisekelo zase-US

Amalungu e-NATO nabalingani
Amalungu e-NATO
Izimpi zase-US kanye nokungenelela kwezempi kusukela ngo-1945

Imephu yalapho izimpi zikhona, ngokudabukisayo, ikhombisa izimpi eziningi kunakuqala, yize kukhona ubhadane lwezifo emhlabeni jikelele kanye nezimfuno zokuphela komlilo. Njengenjwayelo, ibalazwe lezindawo lapho izimpi zikhona aligudluki neze namamephu walapho izikhali zivela khona; futhi uhlu lwezindawo ezinezimpi alufaki zonke izizwe ezibandakanyeka ezimpini (imvamisa zikude kakhulu nasekhaya) - njengalezo zizwe eziqokonyiswe ebalazweni lezindawo ezinamasosha e-Afghanistan.

Amamephu walokho esikwaziyo ngeziteleka ze-drone engeza esithombeni sezimpi, ngenxa yedatha evela ku-Bureau of Investigative Journalism, njengamamephu walokho uhulumeni wase-US avumayo kukho ngeziteleka zomoya.

"I-China manje isincintisana nontanga kwezempi," kusho uThomas Friedman ngo-Ephreli 28, 2021, New York Times. Lolu hlobo lwesimangalo ludonswe amamephu ekusebenziseni nasekusebenziseni imali ngomuntu ngamunye, esidale sisebenzisa idatha evela eStockholm International Peace Research Institute (SIPRI). I-SIPRI ishiya ukusetshenziswa okuningi kwezempi yase-US, kepha isethi engcono kakhulu yedatha etholakalayo ukuqhathanisa izizwe. Kuvela ukuthi iChina isebenzisa u-32% okwenziwa yi-United States, ne-19% yalokho okwenziwa amalungu / abalingani be-US kanye ne-NATO (ngaphandle kweRussia), kanye ne-14% yalokho i-United States kanye nabalingani bayo, amakhasimende ezikhali, kanye nosizo ”Abamukeli bachitha ndawonye kwezempi. Ngokwezigaba zomuntu ngamunye, uhulumeni wase-US uchitha u- $ 2,170 ekulungiseleleni impi nezimpi zawo wonke amadoda, owesifazane, nengane yase-US, kuyilapho iChina isebenzisa u- $ 189 ngomuntu ngamunye.

Uma kukhulunywa ngokusetshenziswa kwamasosha ngamadola ase-2020 aseMelika, abaphula umthetho abakhulu yi-United States, China, India, Russia, UK, Saudi Arabia, Germany, France, Japan, kanye neSouth Korea.

Uma kukhulunywa ngokusetshenziswa kwempi ngamuntu ngamunye, abahola phambili abahamba phambili yi-United States, Israel, Singapore, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Oman, Norway, Australia, Bahrain naseBrunei.

Enye indawo ephethwe yi-United States izikhali. Akugcini nje ukuthi i-United States ithumela izikhali eziningi kunazo zonke, kepha izithumela emazweni amaningi omhlaba, futhi inikezela “ngosizo” lwezempi kuningi lomhlaba, kufaka phakathi iningi lohulumeni abanonya emhlabeni.

Uma kukhulunywa ngenani lezimpi zenuzi abanazo, lawa mabalazwe enza kucace ukuthi izizwe ezimbili ziphethe zonke ezinye: i-United States neRussia, kanti izizwe esazi ngazo kakhulu ukuthi zinezikhali zamakhemikhali kanye / noma zezemvelo yi-United States neChina.

Kunezinye izindawo ezibuswa yi-United States kangangoba akunangqondo ukufaka ezinye izizwe ebalazweni, ngaphandle kokuthi zithintwe yi-United States. Ngakho-ke, amabalazwe asesigabeni soMbuso wase-US afaka inani lezisekelo zamasosha ase-US ezweni ngalinye, ubulungu bezwe ngalinye noma ukubambisana ne-NATO, kanye nesithombe somhlaba wonke sezimpi zase-US kanye nokungenelela kwezempi kusukela ngo-1945. Lokhu kungukusebenza komhlaba wonke.

Iqoqo lamamephu ekuthuthukiseni ukuthula nokuphepha lisho indaba ehlukile. Lapha sibona amaphethini ahlukene, namazwe agqama njengabaholi ekusetshenzisweni komthetho nokwenza ukuthula okungekho phakathi kwabaholi ekufudumaleni kwamanye amamephu. Vele, amazwe amaningi ayisikhwama esixubekile sezinyathelo ezisuka kude nasebusweni bokuthula.

Siyethemba lawa mabalazwe asebenza njengesiqondiso kulokho okudingekayo nokuthi kuphi, ukuya phambili!
