Kwesinye isikhathi ngiba nobunzima bokuchaza ukuthi kungani kungeke kuphele enye yezimpi ezingapheli. Ingabe kunenzuzo enkulu nje? Ingabe inkulumo-ze iyazifeza futhi iyakholelwa? Ingabe i-inertia yezomthetho inamandla kangako? Akukho nhlanganisela yezisusa ezinengqondo ezibonakala zanele. Kepha nali iqiniso elifanele: kusenabantu abasaphila e-Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria, Somalia, nase Yemen.
Akukho memo eyimfihlo ePentagon ebeka ukuthi wonke umuntu kumele ngabe ufile ngaphambi kokuthi amasosha “ahoxe ngokuhlonipha.” Futhi uma bonke bebefile, into yokugcina amabutho azoyenza kungaba ukuhoxa. Kepha kunezintaba zamamemo, eziyimfihlo nokunye, zikumemezela njengokungenazinhloso ukubulala abamsulwa nokugunyaza ukubulawa kwabamsulwa. Kukhona ubuhlanya ngaphezulu kokuphikisana okuhlanganiswe umbhedo, futhi lolu hlobo lwezinto aluhleli nje. Kuvela ndawo thile.
Kwesinye isikhathi ngiyamangala ngokubulawa kwamaphoyisa angacindezeli e-United States. Ukuthi amaphoyisa amaningi angeze aziphutha ngempela izibhamu zawo ngenxa yokuthi azibambile noma kwenzeka ngengozi ukuthi ahlasele abantu ababukeka ngendlela efanayo. Kwenzakalani?
Kuyiqiniso elimsulwa lokuthi impi yenuzi izobhubhisa futhi mhlawumbe iqede impilo yabantu, kepha-ke ngiyakwazi ukubuka ubufakazi phambi kweKhongolose yase-US kudingidwa ukuthi "kuphathwa kanjani" futhi "kubhekwana kanjani" futhi "kuphendulwe" ezimpini zenuzi. Okuthile ngaphandle kwalokhu okushiwo ngokuzwakalayo kusebenza ngokucacile.
Umhlahlandlela womthombo ongaba khona wobuhlanya obuhlangene ungatholakala kwifilimu enezingxenye ezine ku-HBO ebizwa ngokuthi Qothula Zonke Izikhukhula. Ithathela ezincwadini zikaSven Lindqvist, uMichel-Rolph Trouillot, noRoxanne Dunbar-Ortiz, ababili babo engibafundile kanti omunye wabo ngike ngabaxoxisana naye. Ngakho-ke, ngiyibukile ifilimu ngokulindela - futhi bebehlangatshezwa kakhulu yize bebephoxekile futhi bedluliwe. Ukuphoxeka kubangelwe yimvelo yomphakathi. Ngisho nefilimu yamahora amane inamagama ambalwa kakhulu uma iqhathaniswa nencwadi, futhi ayikho nje indlela yokufaka konke kuyo. Kepha amavidyo wevidiyo anamandla nezithombe nemidwebo egqwayizayo nezinhlanganisela zayo zengeza inani elikhulu. Futhi ukuxhumana okwenziwe osukwini lwamanje - noma kungafani ncamashi nalokho engisanda kukwenza ngenhla - kudlule engikulindele. Kanjalo nezigcawu zokuguqula indima kanye nokuhlelwa kwabalingiswa ezigcawini ezenziwe ngezikhathi nezindawo ezahlukahlukene.
Le filimu iyisengezo esesabekayo ezincwadini ezisebenza kuso, futhi iyisingeniso kubo okufanele sikhuthaze okungenani ababukeli abambalwa ukuthi bafunde kabanzi.
Funda ini, ubuza?
Yebo, funda amaphuzu ayisisekelo abonakala sengathi aphunyuke ngendlela engaqondakali kuzibuyekezo engizibonile zefilimu:
Ukuthuthuka kokucwasana ngokobuhlanga nokucwasana ngokwesayensi kanye nama-eugenics kuholele ekwakheni inkolelo yaseNtshonalanga ekuqothulweni okungenakugwenywa / okufiselekayo “kwezinhlanga” ezingezona “ezimhlophe”.
Ikhulu le-19 laligcwele izigameko zokuqothulwa kohlanga (ngaphambi kokuba leli gama libe khona) elenziwa ngabantu baseYurophu emhlabeni wonke, kanye nabaseMelika eMelika.
Amandla okwenza lezi zinto ezesabekayo ancike ekuphakameni kwezikhali futhi akukho okunye.
Lesi sikhali sidale ababulali bohlangothi olulodwa, njengoba kubonakala ezimpini zamanje ezilwa namazwe acebile nakwabampofu.
IJalimane ayizange ingene kulesi senzo kwaze kwaba ngu-1904, kepha ama-1940 ayeyingxenye yomkhuba ojwayelekile, ikakhulukazi ongatholakali lapho kutholakala khona ubugebengu.
Umbono wokuthi ezinye izizwe ziphikisana ngokuqinile nokuqothulwa kohlanga lwamaNazi ngamanga aqanjiwe aqanjwa ngemuva kokuphela kweWWII.
Ukuqothulwa kwamaJuda kwakungewona umqondo omusha njengoba nokuqothulwa kohlanga kwakungewona umkhuba omusha. Eqinisweni, ukuxoshwa kwamaJuda (bese kuba ngamaSulumane) eSpain ngo-1492 kwakuwumsuka wobandlululo oluningi olwalulandela.
(Kepha kukhona okuxakile kule filimu, njengakuyo yonke indawo nawo wonke umuntu, okulandisa ngokubulawa kwamaNazi “amaJuda ayizigidi eziyisithupha” kunokuthi “abantu abayizigidi eziyi-6,” [ngabe lezo ezinye izigidi eziyi-17 azinalutho nakancane?] Noma ngempela ekubulaweni kwabantu abayizigidi ezingama-11 ngeMpi Yezwe II.)
Inkampani yokuqala yase-US yayingumthengisi wezikhali. I-US ayikaze ibe sempini. Izimpi ezinde kakhulu e-US zazingekho ndawo eduze ne-Afghanistan. UBin Laden wabizwa ngamasosha aseMelika iGeronimo ngesizathu esifanayo sokuthi izikhali zawo zethiwe izizwe zamaMelika Omdabu kanye nendawo yezitha "yizwe laseNdiya." Izimpi zase-US ziqhubeka nokuqothulwa kohlanga lapho kwabulawa khona izifo nendlala nokulimala ngoba imiphakathi ibhujiswe ngodlame.
"Ukubulala noma yini ehambayo" akuyona nje umyalo osetshenziswe ezimpini zamanje, kodwa umkhuba ojwayelekile ezimpini zesikhathi esedlule.
Ukugqugquzelwa kukaHitler ngokuyinhloko ngokunqoba kwakhe iMpumalanga yasendle kwaba ukunqoba kwe-US eNtshonalanga yasendle.
Izaba nezizathu zokuqokwa kukaHiroshima noNagasaki (noma uHiroshima nje, enza sengathi uNagasaki akwenzekanga) (kufaka phakathi umbono wefilimu wokuthi lokhu kudinwa kwakudingeka ukuphoqa ukuzinikela) kuvela ngokuphelele emithonjeni ngaphandle kukaHarry Truman owathi, njengoba ocashunwe kule filimu, “lapho usebenza nesilwane, siphathe njengesilwane.” Asikho isidingo sokubulawa kwabantu; babengebona abantu.
Thatha ukuthi abantu base-Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria, Somalia, ne-Yemen ababona abantu. Funda imibiko yezindaba ngezimpi ezingapheli. Bona ukuthi abenzi mqondo omningi ngaleyo ndlela yini.
