Inkulumo emfushane eMkhankasweni Wabantu Abampofu, eDetroit, zingama-26 kuJan 2018
Ake ngikhulume ngempi.
Bangaki kini abakholwa ukuthi impi yimbi? Futhi mina, ngemva kwesikhathi sami sempi, ngivumelana nawe ngokuphelele.
Impi ayikona ukuxazulula izingxabano ayixazululi izingxabano.
Impi ayiphathelene nokuvikeleka kwezwe akusenzi sivikeleke.
Kuhlale kuyimpi yesicebi igilwa igazi labantu abampofu. Impi ingabhekwa ngokunengqondo njengomshini omkhulu ogaya abantu abasebenzayo ukuze bondle isicebi.
Impi igxila kakhulu ingcebo.
Impi isetshenziselwa ukweba amalungelo ethu angabekezeleleki.
UJenene Eisenhower wachaza indlela abantu besizwe esinonya abakhokha ngayo izindleko eziphakeme zempi lapho ethi “Zonke izibhamu ezenziwayo, yonke imikhumbi yempi eqalwayo, wonke amarokhethi adubulayo asho ekugcineni, ukweba kulabo abalambile futhi abangaphakelwa, abagodolayo bengagqokile. Lo mhlaba wezikhali awuchithi imali wodwa. Ichitha izithukuthuku zezisebenzi zayo, ubuhlakani bososayensi bayo, amathemba ezingane zayo. Lena akuyona indlela yokuphila nhlobo nganoma yimuphi umqondo weqiniso. Ngaphansi kwamafu amnyama empi, isintu silenga esiphambanweni sensimbi.”
Sikhokhelani ngempi? Kuneminyango esezingeni lekhabhinethi eyi-15 kuhulumeni wethu. Sinikeza u-60% wesabelomali koyedwa - uMnyango Wezempi. Lokho kushiya eminye iminyango engu-14 ilwela imvuthuluka. Leyo minyango engu-14 yayihlanganisa izinto ezinjengalezi: ezempilo, imfundo, ubulungisa, umnyango wezwe, wezangaphakathi, ezolimo, amandla, ezokuthutha, abasebenzi, ezentengiselwano, nezinye izinto ezibalulekile ekuphileni kwethu.
Noma sibheke enye indlela thina, i-US, esichitha ngayo impi kunezizwe eziyi-8 ezilandelayo zihlangene. Lokho kuhlanganisa iRussia, iChina, iFrance, iNgilandi, angikhumbuli ukuthi bonke bangobani. Kepha hhayi iNorth Korea iphansi kakhulu ohlwini oluzungeze inombolo yama-20.
Sizuzani empini? Iyini inzuzo yethu kulokhu kutshalwa kwezimali okukhulu? Kubonakala sengathi konke esikuthola empini eyodwa kungenye impi. Ake sibone ukuthi lokho kubukeka kanjani, iWWI yazala iWWII, iWWII yazala iMpi YaseKorea, iMpi YaseKorea yaqala iMpi Yomshoshaphansi, iMpi Yomshoshaphansi yazala iMpi YaseMelika eVietnam. Ngenxa yokukhala komphakathi kanye nokubhikisha ngesikhathi seMpi yaseMelika eVietnam kwaba nokuma. Sabe sesiba ne-Gulf War, eyazala i-Global War on Terror, eyaqala ukuhlasela kwe-Afghanistan, okwaqala ukuhlasela kwe-Iraq, okwazala ukuvela kwe-ISIS. Konke lokhu kwazala amaphoyisa ahlomile emigwaqweni yethu emakhaya.
Kungani sikhetha ukwenza lokhu? Sizophuma nini kulo mjikelezo wobuwula? Uma sesiphuma kulo mjikelezo singenza izinto ezinjengokuthi: sondle abalambile, sifundise izingane zethu (okuyikusasa lethu), siqede ukucwasa, siholele abasebenzi amaholo aqotho, siqede ukungalingani, singadala ngisho intando yeningi kuleli. .
Singazenza lezi zinto. Kodwa kuphela uma siphika abacebile nabanamandla izimpi zabo.
