nguDavid Swanson, Juni 28, 2017, Ake sizame ngentando yeningi.
Ihanjiswe engqungqutheleni kaJulayi 2, 2017, ethi “United States, Human Rights and Discourse of Domination,” ephethwe yiNyuvesi yaseTehran kanye ne-Iranian World Studies Association.
Ngiyaxolisa kakhulu ngokungabi khona mathupha futhi ngiyabonga kuFoad Izadi ngokungivumela ukuthi ngithumele lokhu esikhundleni. Ngingumgxeki wesikhungo sempi kanye nalo lonke udlame lwezempi, kanye nawo wonke uhulumeni ophikisana nentando yeningi kanye nakho konke ukwephulwa kwenkululeko yomphakathi. Abantu base-Iran, e-United States, nakwamanye amazwe ayi-151 basayine incwadi yezikhalazo engisizile ekuqaleni kwaWorldBeyondWar.org ngizibophezela ukusebenzela ukuqeda yonke impi.
Kuningi engingase ngikugxeke, ngisho nangesikhundla sami sokungazi lutho, kuhulumeni wase-Iran. Kodwa kuningi engingakwazi futhi okumele ngikugxeke kuhulumeni wase-US. Futhi kunezizathu zokuthi kungani lokho kugxilwa kufanele. (Ngikukhuthaza ukuthi ubhekane nokungabi nabulungisa kwakho kangcono kunalokho engangingakwenza futhi ucele noma yiluphi usizo lapho ulufuna.)
- Ngise-United States futhi kungenzeka ngibe nomthelela lapha
- I-United States iketule uhulumeni wase-Iran, yasekela i-Iraq empini ebhekene ne-Iran, yesabisa ngokuphinde ihlasele, yasabisa ngesiteleka sokuqala senuzi, yaqamba amanga nge-Iran, yavumela i-Iran, yasebenzisa ukuhlaselwa kwe-cyber kanye nodlame oluncane olubhekiswe e-Iran, yazungeza i-Iran ngezempi. izisekelo nezikhali, futhi yafaka idemoni i-Iran kangangokuthi ocwaningweni lukaGallup emazweni angama-65 eminyakeni embalwa edlule, iningi lamazwe labiza i-United States njengosongo olukhulu lokuthula emhlabeni, kodwa abantu base-United States baqamba i-Iran.
- I-Iran isebenzisa ngaphansi kwe-1% lokho i-US ekwenzayo ngamalungiselelo empi, ayinasisekelo emingceleni yase-US, ayisongeli ukuhlasela i-United States, ayizange ibeke i-United States ekseni lobubi noma uhlu lwezinhlangano zamaphekula, futhi engazibandakanyi ezingeni lezempi noma ukucekelwa phansi kwemvelo osekuyinsakavukela eWashington.
Ingabe uyamazi uJeffrey Sterling? Kufanele ahlonishwe e-Iran. Uboshiwe e-United States. Wasebenza e-CIA futhi wafunda ukuthi i-CIA yayinikeza i-Iran izinhlelo ezinephutha zokwakha ibhomu lenuzi, ngokucacile ngenhloso yokusungula i-Iran. I-CIA isuke kuleyo phrojekthi yaqonda ngqo ekusebenzeni okufanayo e-Iraq. USterling waya kuCongress futhi waxoshwa. A New York Times intatheli egama layo linguJames Risen yaluthatha lolu daba futhi ayikwazanga ukuyithola New York Times ukuyiphrinta, kodwa yanyatheliswa encwadini. Ngaphandle kobufakazi, uSterling washushiswa futhi wagwetshwa ngesenzo esihle sentando yeningi sokwazisa umphakathi ukuthi i-CIA yayibudedengu futhi inenhloso embi yokwandisa ubuchwepheshe bezikhali zenuzi, "amaphutha" lapho ososayensi bangempela babonakala khona kalula. Uma i-Iran ibophisa umzwilili esimeni esifanayo, kungaba nesiphithiphithi e-United States, ifune ukumkhulula, futhi mhlawumbe imikhankaso yokubatholela uMklomelo Wokuthula KaNobel. Ngethemba ukuthi nonke ningacabanga futhi nimbangele uJeffrey Sterling umsindo.
Ngifuna ukukufaka lapha okuthile engikubhale kamuva nje mayelana nezijeziso:
ISenethi yase-US ikwenzile yanda unswinyo kubantu base-Iran naseRussia, uma iNdlu kanye noMongameli behambisana. Ivoti leSenethi lalinjalo 98-2, namaSenator uRand Paul noBernie Sanders bevotela ukuthi cha, laba bakamuva naphezu kokusekela kwakhe ingxenye yesiRashiya yomthethosivivinywa.
Lo mthethosivivinywa ubizwa ngokuthi “Isenzo sokuhlinzeka ngokubuyekezwa kwekhongolose kanye nokulwa nolaka lukahulumeni wase-Irani nowaseRussia.”
Igama elithi "Aggression" liyitemu lobuciko lapha elihloselwe ukuveza into efana nokuthi kusho ukuthini kumasosha ase-US ukusola indiza yaseSyria eSyria ngodlame olubhekiswe kumasosha ase-US ngaphambi kokuyidubula. Ngokomthetho, umhlaseli yi-United States kuzo zombili izimo (empini yaseSyria nakumongo walezi unswinyo), kodwa ukukhuluma ngokweqiniso ukumelana nolaka lwase-US kuthathwa eWashington, DC, njengobutha obungamukelekile.
Ukuhlolwa okuthembekile kweqhinga lase-US lezinhlawulo kutholakala kuyo Investopedia.com: “Ukulwela impi akuyona ukuphela kwenketho emazweni aphakathi kwezingxabano zezombangazwe. Esikhundleni salokho, unswinyo lwezomnotho lunikeza indlela esheshayo yokuthi i-US ihlasele amazwe akhohlakele ngaphandle kokubeka izimpilo emgqeni. "
"Isenzo sezempi," kufanele siqaphele, umsebenzi wobugebengu ngaphansi kwe-UN Charter nangaphansi kwe-Kellogg-Briand Pact. Akuyona nje "ipolitiki ngezinye izindlela," kodwa kunalokho isenzo esibi kakhulu. Uma isizwe esikhohlakele sibheka obunye ubugebengu obungenzeka njengezinye izindlela esikhundleni sempi futhi sivumelana nezijeziso, umphumela uba nobudlova obuncane kodwa abubi kangako njalo. Izijeziso zase-US e-Iraq ngaphambi kuka-2003 wabulawa okungenani abantu abayizigidi ezingu-1.7, okuhlanganisa okungenani izingane eziyizigidi ezingu-0.5, ngokusho kwe-UN (into ngaleso sikhathi owayenguNobhala Wombuso uMadeleine Albright athi “ifanele”). Ngakho-ke, unswinyo “lubeka izimpilo engcupheni,” kodwa zingamathuluzi esikhohlakali, hhayi ezobulungiswa bomhlaba wonke “obubhidliza” izikhohlakali.
“Njengesenzo sezempi,” unswinyo alusebenzi ngokwemibandela yabo. Izijeziso zase-US eNorth Korea bezihluleka ukuketula lowo hulumeni, nokuhlanganisa abantu ngemuva kwawo, iminyaka engu-67. Indaba efanayo neCuba eminyakeni engama-57 edlule. Futhi i-Iran eminyakeni engama-38 edlule. Ngesikhathi ngiseRussia muva nje, abaphikisi abaqavile bakaVladimir Putin bangitshela ukuthi ngeke bamgxeke kuze kuphele unswinyo.
Vele, uma umgomo ungekona ukuketulwa kwasekhaya kodwa ukugqugquzelwa kobuzwe noma impi ezokwenza isitha esihle sibe lula ukusivusela impi, khona-ke ngokungangabazeki kube nezimpawu eziyingozi zempumelelo eNyakatho Korea, kuyilapho ama-Irani eqokwa kabusha impi. okulinganiselwe, futhi ukuzibamba kukaPutin okupholile kakhulu kumele kukhungathekise ngokungapheli.
I-US ayivezi unswinyo njengamathuluzi okubulala nonya, kodwa yilokho abayikho. Abantu baseRussia nabase-Irani sebevele behlupheka ngaphansi unswinyo lwaseMelika, ama-Irani kanzima kakhulu. Kodwa bobabili bayaziqhenya futhi bathola ukuzimisela emzabalazweni, njengoba kwenza abantu abahlaselwa amasosha. E-Russia, unswinyo empeleni luzuzisa ezolimo, njengoba benzile eCuba. Isidingo ngumama wokukhiqiza ukudla. Noma kunjalo, ukuhlupheka kusabalele futhi kungokoqobo. Ukuqinisa ukuvinjelwa eCuba kuyisenzo sobugebengu esizoholela ekufeni (okuhlanganisa nokufa kwezakhamuzi zase-US ezinqatshelwe ukufinyelela emithini yaseCuba).
I-US yethula unswinyo njengokuphoqelela umthetho kunokuphula umthetho. Umthetho wethimba lezigele usola i-Iran ngokwakha imicibisholo kanye nokweseka amaphekula namavukelambuso. I-United States, vele, idlula kude i-Iran kukho kokubili, futhi imicibisholo yokwakha (ngokudabukisayo) ayikona ukwephulwa kwanoma yimuphi umthetho. Ubushokobezi obukhulu, obubuye baziwe ngokuthi yimpi, kulapho ubugebengu base-US budla i-Iran neRussia.
Lo mthethosivivinywa ofanayo ucaphuna "umphakathi wezobunhloli" wase-US "ngokuhlola" ngoJanuwari ukuthi "uMongameli waseRussia uVladimir Putin wayala umkhankaso wokuba nethonya ngo-2016 okuhloswe ngawo okhethweni lukamongameli wase-United States." Ngakho-ke iRussia isolwa (ngaphandle kobufakazi obuncane) bokubukela phansi ukuphepha kwe-cyber kanye nokhetho, izinto i-United States ehamba phambili kuzo emhlabeni. Ngaphezu kwalokho, iRussia isolwa "ngobudlova" e-Ukraine, into eyenza kube lula ukuketula umbuso ngobudlova eKiev akwenzi lokho. ngokusobala hlanganisa. Bese kuba “nokuhlukunyezwa kwamalungelo abantu” kanye “nenkohlakalo eRussia.”
Uma kunendima yesistimu yomhlaba wonke yobulungisa ukubhekana nezindaba ezinjalo, ayikho indima kuhulumeni wase-US, umhloli omkhulu wobudlova emhlabeni, umboshwa omkhulu kunabo bonke abantu emhlabeni, umthengi omkhulu we-petroleum emhlabeni, futhi uhulumeni ogunyaze ukugwazisa, ukwenza lokho.
Uhlu lwezinhlawulo kulo mthethosivivinywa omusha, njengasezinhlelweni ezikhona zonswinyo emazweni amaningi, lwenza ingxubevange. Okunye unswinyo kuthiwa kubhekiswe kumalungelo abantu, kanti eminye ngokusobala ihloselwe ukuncintisana kwezomnotho - kanye nokuncintisana kwezokuxhumana. Izimboni ezahlukene kuhloswe ngazo umonakalo. Ukukhiqizwa kombiko kwabezindaba baseRussia kuyalelwa - njengokungathi i-United States ayiyona futhi ehamba phambili ekukhangiseni imidiya yayo phesheya.
Umugqa wesiliva lapha, kanye - ngokuqondana - ingxenye yomthetho okungenzeka ukuthi ingajabulisa i-White House umzamo wokuvimba amapayipi amafutha ezinto ezimbiwa phansi aseRussia. Unobhala we-Exxon Mobil akanakujabula. Ukube i-Russophobia ibingasindisa isimo sezulu enanini elikhulu lekhabhoni, futhi ikwenze kwamukeleke ukufuna ukubalwa kwamavoti okuqinisekisiwe okhethweni lwase-US, bekungaba okungenani okuthile okungamamatheka ngakho njengoba isintu sisondela onqenqemeni.
Akudingeki ukuthi sisho, singaba ngcono uma siqeda unswinyo kanye nempi njengezinhlobo ezinonya, ezinonya, ezinonya ezweni elidinga ukubambisana, intethelelo, nokuphana ngendlela engakaze yenzeke ngayo ngaphambili. Ngenkathi iSoviet Union izidiliza, yalahla ubukhomanisi, futhi icela ukujoyina i-EU kanye ne-NATO, futhi ukuhoxisa izikhali, uhulumeni wase-US wakwenza kwacaca ukuthi wazisa okuthile okuphakeme kakhulu kunokuqeda izitha. Futhi yilokhu: ukugcina izitha. Izijeziso zifeza leyo njongo ngeRussia ne-Iran: zigcina izitha, zithengisa izikhali.
Baphinde balungisele impi, njengase-Iraq. Izikhali zenuzi zaseRussia, impumelelo emangalisayo ye-Islamophobia, ukucwasa ngokwendabuko kwe-US, kanye nokumiswa kwamasosha ase-US endaweni konke kwenza lezi zindaba ezimbi kakhulu e-Iran njengesisulu esilandelayo. Futhi uma kuqalwa impi yase-US ngokumelene ne-Iran, kungenzeka ukuthi sizwe emahholo anamandla aseWashington njengesizathu sempi lesi sivumo esidabukisayo esilandelayo: “Hhayi-ke, sizamile unswinyo futhi lokho akuzange kusebenze.”

Yiqiniso okugxilwe kakhulu eWashington okwamanje - nakuba kushintsha usuku nosuku, ngezimpi eziningi ezahlukene okufanele uzinake - kuseSyria, lapho i-US ibeka engcupheni impi ne-Iran neRussia phakathi kwabanye. Amalungu anesibindi kakhulu e-US Congress afuna i-US ukuthi ibhomule iSyria ngendlela uDonald Trump angase ayikhathalele, kodwa ukuqinisekisa ukuthi iCongress iyayigunyaza kuqala. Uma kungenjalo kuzomane kwenzeke ngaphandle kokugunyazwa kweCongressional, kodwa ngokwamukelwa kweCongressional kanye noxhaso. Yilokhu okudlulayo engxoxweni yokuba semthethweni kwempi eWashington.
Vele kusukela ngo-1929 impi ivinjelwe ngokuphelele yi-Kellogg-Briand Pact lapho i-US nePheresiya bekuyizinhlangano zangempela. Futhi kusukela ngo-1945 izimpi eziningi, okuhlanganisa zonke izimpi zamanje zase-US, kuhlanganise nanoma iyiphi impi yase-US eSiriya noma ngabe igunyaziwe yiCongress noma cha, ivinjelwe yi-UN Charter. Kunomthetho ongabhalwanga e-United States: Ungasho imithetho enjalo. Ngisho nenhlangano enkulu yaseNtshonalanga yamalungelo abantu njenge-Amnesty International kanye ne-Human Rights Watch ithatha isikhundla esinezimiso ngokumelene nokuvuma imithetho enjalo. Kodwa lesi sikhundla asidluleli ezimpini ngabanye abangaphandle kwe-orbit yase-US. Lapho i-Iraq ihlasela i-Kuwait lokho kwagxekwa ngokushesha njengokuphulwa kwemithetho ngaphandle kwalokho kwagwenywa ngokucophelela.
Uma sizoshintsha lesi simo, ngicabanga ukuthi, sidinga ukuthatha uhlobo olubi lwempi ndawonye, ukuqaphela ukuthi kukhona amathuluzi angenalo ubudlova angenza kangcono noma yini impi engayenza. Kudingeka sakhe ukuqonda phakathi kwabantu base-United States kanye nabantu base-Iran futhi ngokubambisana ngendlela ehlelekile sinqobe inkohlakalo nenzondo kanye nokuhlehlela emuva “kwabaholi” bethu. Ngingathanda ukubona imibhikisho ehlanganyelwe kanye nangesikhathi esisodwa yokuthula e-Iran nase-United States. Futhi ngethemba ukuthi ngesinye isikhathi ngizohlangana nani nonke mathupha.
Ngoxolo,
UDavid Swanson
