Ngo-Ann Wright,
Ukuphawula ku-Women Against Military Violence Symposium, Naha, Okinawa
Njengomakadebona oneminyaka engu-29 we-US Army, okokuqala ngifuna ukuxolisa ngokujulile ngezenzo zobugebengu ezinyantisayo ezinyangeni ezimbili ezedlule e-Okinawa ngabenzi bokubulala, ukudlwengula okubili kanye nokulimala okubangelwa ukushayela uphuzile ngamasosha ase-US abelwe e-Okinawa. .
Nakuba lezi zenzo zobugebengu UNGAZIBONISI izimo zengqondo ze-99.9% yezempi yase-US e-Okinawa, iqiniso lokuthi eminyakeni engu-70 ngemva kokuphela kweMpi Yezwe II, kunezikhungo ezinkulu zamasosha ase-US anamashumi ezinkulungwane zamasosha ase-US ahlala e-US. I-Okinawa yenza isimo esiyingozi.
Umgomo wamasosha ukuxazulula izingxabano zamazwe ngamazwe nodlame. Abasebenzi bezempi baqeqeshelwe ukusabela ezimeni ngezenzo zobudlova. Lezi zenzo zobudlova zingasetshenziswa empilweni yomuntu siqu njengamasosha ezama ukuxazulula izinkinga zomuntu siqu phakathi komndeni, abangani noma abantu abangabazi ngodlame. Udlame lusetshenziselwa ukuxazulula intukuthelo, ukungathandi, inzondo, umuzwa wokuba phezulu kwabanye.
Akuyona nje imiphakathi ezungeze izizinda zamasosha ase-US ethintwa yilolu dlame njengoba sibonile ukuqhuma ezinyangeni ezimbili ezedlule e-Okinawa, kodwa udlame lwenzeka ezisekelweni zempi phakathi kwamalungu omphakathi wezempi nemindeni. Udlame lwasekhaya phakathi kwemindeni yezempi ehlala nangaphandle kwezikhungo zempi luphezulu.
Ukuhlukunyezwa ngokocansi nokudlwengulwa kwamasosha ngabanye abasebenzi kuphezulu ngendlela emangalisayo. Izilinganiso zithi owesifazane oyedwa kwabathathu embuthweni wamasosha aseMelika uzonukubezwa ngokocansi noma adlwengulwe phakathi nesikhathi esifushane seminyaka eyisithupha esebuthweni lezempi laseMelika. UMnyango Wezokuvikela ulinganisela ukuthi amasosha angaphezu kuka-20,000 ahlukunyezwa ngokocansi unyaka ngamunye, abesifazane nabesilisa. Amazinga okushushiswa ngalawa macala aphansi kakhulu, ngamaphesenti angu-7 kuphela amacala abikiwe aholela ekushushisweni komenzi wobubi.
Izolo, u-Suzuyo Takazato we-Okinawan Women Against Military Violence, inhlangano ebibhala ngodlame lwamasosha ase-US e-Okinawa kusukela ngeMpi Yezwe II - manje enamakhasi angu-28 ubude - kusithathe ukuba sihloniphe u-Rina Shimabukuro oneminyaka engu-20 ubudala. Sahamba saya endaweni eseduze kwaseCamp Hansen lapho isidumbu sakhe sasitholakala khona ngokuvunyelwa umenzi wokudlwengula, ukushaya nokubulala, usonkontileka wezempi wase-US kanye nalowo owayeyi-US Marine eyabelwe e-Okinawa. Ngokuvuma kwakhe emaphoyiseni aseJapane, wathi useshayele amahora ambalwa efuna isisulu.
Isithombe sesikhumbuzo sika-Rina Shimabukuro (isithombe ngu-Ann Wright)
Izimbali zikaRina Shimabukuro endaweni engayodwa eduze kwaseCamp Hansen lapho ehlonzwe khona ngumenzi wobubi
Njengoba sazi kokunye ukudlwengula okuningi, ngokuvamile umdlwenguli uye wadlwengula abesifazane abaningi—futhi ngisola ukuthi lesi sigilamkhuba asiyena nje umdlwenguli olandelanayo kuphela kodwa mhlawumbe umbulali olandelanayo. Nginxusa amaphoyisa aseJapane ukuba ahlole imibiko yawo yabesifazane abadukile e-Okinawa ngesikhathi esabelwe lapha futhi nginxusa amaphoyisa ezempi ase-US kanye namaphoyisa avamile ukuba ahlole abesifazane abalahlekile eduze nezinkambu zempi e-United States lapho ayabelwe khona.
Lezi zenzo zobugebengu zifaka kahle ubudlelwano be-US-Japan. Ngesikhathi evakashele eJapan muva nje uMongameli wase-United States u-Obama uzwakalise “ukuzisola okujulile” ngokudlwengulwa nokubulawa kwentombazane eneminyaka emithathu kuphela ubudala kunendodakazi yakhe endala.
Nokho uMengameli u-Obama akazange azwakalise ukuzisola ngokuqhubeka nokuhlala kwe-US ngamaphesenti angu-20 omhlaba wase-Okinawa eminyakeni engu-70 ngemva kweMpi Yezwe II, noma ngokucekelwa phansi kwemvelo kwezindawo ezisetshenziswa amasosha ase-US kufakazelwa ukukhishwa kwakamuva kwamakhasi angama-8500 emibiko ethi. ukungcoliswa, ukuchitheka kwamakhemikhali kanye nokulimala kwemvelo ezisekelweni zamasosha ase-US iningi lakho elingakaze libikwe kuhulumeni waseJapan. “Kusukela ngo-1998 kuya ku-2015, ukuvuza sekufinyelele ku-40,000 13,000 wamalitha kaphethiloli wejet, amalitha angu-480,000 206 kadizili kanye namalitha angu-2010 2014 endle. Ezigamekweni ezingu-51 eziphawulwe phakathi kuka-23 no-2014, ezingu-59 zasolwa ezingozini noma amaphutha abantu; angu-XNUMX kuphela abikwa ezikhulwini zaseJapane. Ngonyaka ka-XNUMX kube nenani eliphakeme kakhulu lezingozi: ezingama-XNUMX - ezimbili kuphela zazo ezabikwa eTokyo. http://apjjf.org/2016/09/Mitchell.html
Isivumelwano Se-Status of Forces Agreement (SOFA) esingalinganiseli kakhulu, esingalingani, sivumela amasosha ase-US ukuthi angcolise izindawo zase-Okinawan futhi kungadingeki ukuthi abike ukungcola kuziphathimandla zendawo noma kudingeke ukuthi ahlanze umonakalo. I-SOFA ayidingi ukuthi amasosha ase-US abike izenzo zobugebengu ezenziwa ezisekelweni zamasosha ase-US ngaleyo ndlela afihle izinombolo zezenzo zobudlova ezenziwa lapho.
Manje yisikhathi esihle sokuthi uhulumeni waseJapan afune ukuthi iSOFA ixoxisane kabusha ukuze aphoqe uhulumeni wase-US ukuthi wamukele izibopho zawo ngomonakalo owenziwe amasosha ase-US kubantu bakhona nasezindaweni zawo.
Izakhamizi zase-Okinawa kanye nabaholi abakhethiwe base-Okinawa benze umcimbi ongakaze ubonwe-ukumiswa, futhi ngethemba, ukuphela kokwakhiwa kwemigwaqo yezindiza e-Henoko. Okwenzile ukubekela inselele uhulumeni wakho kazwelonke kanye nomzamo kahulumeni wase-US wokwakha esinye isizinda samasosha emanzini amahle ase-Ora Bay kuyamangaza.
Ngisanda kuvakashela izishoshovu e-Jeju Island, eSouth Korea lapho umkhankaso wabo weminyaka engu-8 wokuvimbela ukwakhiwa kwesizinda samasosha emanzini abo ahlanzekile ungazange uphumelele. Imizamo yabo AYISEKELWE wuhulumeni wesifunda futhi manje abayi-116 kubo kanye nezinhlangano ezi-5 zamadolobhana bamangalelwe ngamademeshe ezindleko ezidalwe ukuncipha kwesivinini kwemibhikisho yansuku zonke ebivala amasango okungena emalolini okwakha.
Futhi, ngifuna ukuzwakalisa ukuxolisa kwami okukhulu ngezenzo zabantu abambalwa embuthweni wezempi wase-US ngezenzo zobugebengu ezenzeke, kodwa okubaluleke kakhulu ukukutshela ukuthi abaningi bethu e-United States bazoqhubeka nomzabalazo wethu wokuqeda i-800 US. izisekelo zezempi i-US inazo emhlabeni jikelele. Uma kuqhathaniswa nezizinda zezempi ezingama-30 kuphela zonke ezinye izizwe zomhlaba ezinazo emazweni okungezona ezazo, isifiso saseMelika sokusebenzisa amazwe abanye abantu ngomshini wayo wempi kufanele simiswe futhi sizibophezele ukuqhubeka nokusebenzela lowo mgomo. .
