“Umthetho Wokulwa Kwezikhala Zasemkhathini” - ozoqeda iSpanish Force entsha — wethulwe kuKhongolose lase-US.
Ixhaswe ngamalungu amahlanu eNdlu yabaMamele eholwa nguMmeli uJared Huffman, isitatimende, wabiza i-US Space Force “njengeyabizayo futhi engadingekile.”
Ummeleli uHuffman umemezele: “Ukungathathi hlangothi isikhathi eside komkhathi kukhuthaze iminyaka yokuncintisana, engeyona impi yokuhlola zonke izizwe nezizukulwane okuye kwaziswa kusukela ezinsukwini zokuqala zokuhamba emkhathini. Kepha selokhu yadalwa ngaphansi kombuso wangaphambilini kaTrump, iSpace Force isongele ukuthula isikhathi eside futhi yachitha kabi izigidigidi zabakhokhi bentela. ”
UMnu.

Inhloso yethu kumele kube ukuxhasa abantu baseMelika, hhayi ukuchitha izigidigidi kulwa nomkhathi. ”
Ngommeleli waseCalifornia njengabaxhasi abahlanganyela balesi silinganiso kukhona Abamele uMark Pocan waseWisconsin, usihlalo weCongressus Progressive Caucus; UMaxine Waters waseCalifornia; URashida Tlaib waseMichigan; noJesu Garcia wase-Illinois. Bonke bangamaDemokhrasi.

IGlobal Network Against Weapons & Nuclear Power in Space yamemezela isilinganiso. "IGlobal Network ihalalisela abamele uHuffman kanye nalabo abambambisene nabo ngokuletha kwabo iqiniso nokuyiqhawe lomthethosivivinywa wokuqeda iSpace Force esaphazayo nesicasulayo," kusho umxhumanisi wale nhlangano, uBruce Gagnon.
“Akungabazeki ukuthi asidingi umjaho omusha wezikhali esikhaleni e-
kanye nesikhathi lapho isimo sezulu sibhebhetheka, uhlelo lwethu lokunakekelwa kwezokwelapha luyawa, futhi nokwahlukana kwengcebo kukhula ngaphezu kokucabanga, ”kusho uGagnon. “Singaze sicabange nokuchitha izigidigidi zamaRandi ukuze i-US ibe 'yiNkosi Yomkhathi'!” kusho uGagnon ekhuluma ngesiqubulo esithi “Master of Space” sengxenye ye-Space Force.
"Impi emkhathini ikhombisa ukunqanyulwa okujulile komoya kukho konke okubaluleke kakhulu kuMama wethu Womhlaba," kusho uGagnon. "Sikhuthaza wonke umuntu ophilayo, ophefumulayo waseMelika ukuthi axhumane nabamele ibandla lakhe futhi afune ukuthi basekele lo mthetho-sisekelo ukuqeda i-Space Force."
Izinjabulo, nazo, zivela ku-Alice Slater, ilungu lebhodi le World BEYOND War. Ukhombe "izingcingo eziphindaphindiwe ezivela eRussia nase China e-United States zokuxoxisana ngesivumelwano sokuvimbela izikhali emkhathini" nokuthi i-US "ivimbe kanjani zonke izingxoxo" zalokhu. UTrump “ekuzameni kwakhe ukuthola udumo,” kusho uSlater, wasungula iSpace Force “njengegatsha elisha sha lejuggernaut yamasosha… .Kuyadabukisa ukuthi uMengameli omusha wase-United States uBiden akenzanga lutho ukuvimbela ukulwa. Ngenhlanhla, usizo lusendleleni neqembu lamalungu amahlanu eCongress asethule umthetho weNo Militarization of Space Act ofuna ukuthi kuqedwe i-Space Force entsha. ”
“Kuphela ngesonto eledlule,” kuqhubeka uSlater, “enkulumweni yakhe engqungqutheleni yeZizwe Ezihlangene eyayiseGeneva, uLi Song, inxusa laseChina lezokuphathwa kwezikhali, wanxusa i-US ukuthi iyeke ukuba 'yisikhubekiso' ekuvimbeleni umncintiswano wezikhali emkhathini uqaphela ukungazihloniphi kwabo izivumelwano, ukuqala ngokuphela kweMpi Yomshoshaphansi, nezinhloso zayo eziphindiwe zokubusa nokulawula isikhala. ”
Ukusekelwa kwe-No Militarization of Space Act kwavela kwezinye izinhlangano ezahlukahlukene.
UKevin Martin, uMongameli we-Peace Action, uthe: “Indawo engaphandle kumele isuswe ezimpini futhi igcinwe njengendawo yokuhlola ngokuthula. ISpace Force ingudoti ongenangqondo, ophindaphindiwe wamadola abakhokhi bentela, futhi ikufanele kakhulu ukuhlekwa usulu ekuzuzile. I-Peace Action, okuyinhlangano enkulu kunazo zonke ezokuthula nokulwa nezikhali e-US, incoma futhi ivumela uMmeli Huffman's No Militarization of Space Act ukuqeda iSpace Farce. ”
USean Vitka, umkhandlu omkhulu wezinqubomgomo zeqembu iDemand Progress, uthe: “Indawo yokulwa nokulwa kuwukuchitha okungacabangi kwezigidigidi zamadola wentela, futhi kubeka engcupheni yokwengeza amaphutha amabi kakhulu omlando kuze kufike emngceleni wokugcina ngokumema ukungqubuzana nokwanda. Abantu baseMelika abafuni ukusetshenziswa kwemali esetshenzisiwe kwezempi, okusho ukuthi iCongress kufanele iphasise umthetho othi No Militarization of Space Act ngaphambi kokuthi isabelomali seSpace Force sikhuphuke ngokungenakuvinjelwa, ”
U-Andrew Lautz, onguMqondisi weFederal Policy yeNational Taxpayers Union, uthe: “I-Space Force isheshe yaba yinduna yabakhokhi bentela enezela imikhakha yezokuphatha nemfucuza kwisabelomali esivele sichithwe. Umthetho omele uHuffman uzoqeda i-Space Force kungakephuzi ukwenza lokho, mhlawumbe kungonga abakhokhi bentela izigidigidi zamaRandi kule nqubo. I-NTU ishayela ihlombe uMmeli uHuffman ngokwethula lo mthethosivivinywa. ”
Umthetho, uma uvunywa, uzoba yingxenye yoMthetho Kazwelonke Wokugunyazwa Kwezokuvikela ngonyaka ka-2022, umthethosivivinywa waminyaka yonke ogunyaza ukusetshenziswa kwempi.
I-Space Force yasungulwa, saphawula isitatimende esivela ku-Representative Huffman, "ngaphandle kokuzibophezela kwezwe ngaphansi kweSivumelwano Sasemkhathini sango-1967, esivimbela ukubekwa kwezikhali zokubhujiswa okukhulu emkhathini futhi kwavimbela amasosha asezingqungqutheleni zezulu." I-US Space Force ibe nesabelomali sango-2021 "semali eyizigidigidi eziyi-15.5 zamaRandi," kusho isitatimende.
I-China, iRussia kanye nomakhelwane baseMelika iCanada bahole emizameni yokwandisa iSivumelwano Sasemkhathini sango-1967 — esihlanganiswe yi-US, iSoviet Union yangaphambilini kanye neGreat Britain futhi basekelwa kabanzi yizizwe emhlabeni wonke — ngokungavimbi kuphela izikhali ukubhujiswa kufakwa esikhaleni kepha zonke izikhali esikhaleni. Lokhu kuzokwenziwa ngesivumelwano sePrevention of an Arms Race (PAROS). Kodwa-ke, kufanele ivunyelwe yiNgqungquthela ye-UN Yezokulwa Nezikhali ngaphambi kokumiswa komthetho — futhi ngalokho kumele kuvotwe ngazwilinye yizizwe engqungqutheleni. I-US yenqabile ukuxhasa isivumelwano se-PAROS, ivimbela ukudlula kwayo.
Inkulumo ngesonto eledlule u-Alice Slater ayekhuluma ngayo kwi-UN eGeneva yabikwa ngu I-South China Morning Post. Icaphune uLi Song, inxusa laseChina lezindaba zokuphathwa kwezikhali, ethi iMelika kufanele "iyeke ukuba 'yisikhubekiso'" esivumelwaneni sePAROS bese iqhubeka ithi: "Ngemuva kokuphela kweMpi Yomshoshaphansi, futhi ikakhulukazi kule minyaka engamashumi amabili edlule, i-US izame ngakho konke okusemandleni ukuqeda izibopho zayo zamazwe omhlaba, yenqaba ukuboshwa ngezivumelwano ezintsha kanye nezingxoxo ezinde zamazwe amaningi zokulwa ne-PAROS. Ukukubeka ngokusobala, i-US ifuna ukubusa emkhathini. ”
U-Li, lo esihlokweni yaqhubeka, yathi: “Uma isikhala singavinjelwa ngempumelelo ekubeni yimpi, khona-ke 'imithetho yomkhumbi-mkhathi' ngeke ibe nje 'yikhodi yempi yasemkhathini.'”
UCraig Eisendrath, okwathi njengehhovisi elisencane loMnyango Wezwe laseMelika wabandakanyeka ekwakhiweni kweSivumelwano Sasemkhathini wathi "Besifuna ukukhipha izikhali esikhaleni ngaphambi kokuba sihlonywe ... ukuvimbela impi ngaphandle kwesikhala."
I-US Space Force icele isabelomali sama- $ 17.4 billion ngo-2022 ukuze “kukhuliswe umsebenzi,” imibiko I-Air Force Magazine. “ISabelomali Somkhathi Ka-2022 Sengeza Iziphuphutheki, Isikhungo Sokulwa Nezimpi, Ama-More Guardians,” kwakuyisihloko salo mbhalo.
Izisekelo eziningi ze-US Air Force ziqanjwa kabusha ngokuthi izisekelo ze-US Space Force.
I-US Space Force "ithole isikhali sayo sokuqala esihlaselayo… ama-satellite jam," kubika Izindaba Zezempi ZaseMelika ngo-2020. "Lesi sikhali asiziqedi iziphuphutheki zezitha, kodwa singasetshenziswa ukuphazamisa ukuxhumana kwesitha nge-satellite futhi siphazamise izinhlelo zesitha zokuxwayisa kusenesikhathi ezenzelwe ukuthola ukuhlaselwa yi-US," kusho lokho.
Ngokushesha ngemuva kwalokho, i- Izikhathi Zezezimali ' isihloko: "Izikhulu zamasosha aseMelika zibona isizukulwane esisha sezikhali zasemkhathini."
Ngo-2001, isihloko esikhulu kwiwebhusayithi ethi c4isrnet.com, esizichaza ngokuthi “iMedia for the Intelligence Age Military,” samemezela: “I Isikhundla Sesikhala ifuna ukusebenzisa izindlela zamandla aqondiswayo ukuphakama komkhathi. ”
