INorth Korea inesizathu esihle sokuzizwa ididekile.
Nakuba iningi lemithombo yezindaba yase-US lichithe unyaka odlule limatasatasa ngohlelo lwenuzi lwaseNyakatho Korea kanye nokwethulwa kwalo kwemicibisholo, imithombo yezindaba yomhlaba wonke ibibika—iminyaka eminingi—ngezinhlelo ezingezona eziyimfihlo zaseWashington “zokwehliswa ikhanda” lezwe ngokubulala umholi waseKorea. UKim Jong-Un. Le mibiko (ikakhulukazi engabonakali kwabezindaba yase-US) ingase ichaze ukuthi kungani i-North Korea ihlala ixakeke ngemicibisholo nama-nukes.
Okunye okwakugigida izinzwa zikaPyongyang kwakuyizivivinyo ezimbili ezeqile zamasosha ase-US/South Korea (Ukuxazulula Okubalulekile kanye Nokhozi Lwezinyosi). Ukubuthana okukhulu kwakuhilela amasosha angu-22,800 ayezilolongela ukubulawa I-OPLAN 5015, uhlelo lwempi oluhlukanisiwe olufuna ukuhlasela kanye “nokunqunyulwa kwekhanda” kweNyakatho ngeziteleka ezinembayo ezihloselwe izinsiza zenuzi, ezicitshwayo, zokulawula nokulawula kanye nobuholi bezwe.
Futhi umcabango webutho lesiteleka eliholwa ngumthwali wezindiza wase-US elizulazula ngaseNhlonhlweni YaseKorea nawo awawenzi amanzi.
Trump 'Near-Nukes' Afghanistan
Ngemuva kwesenzo sempi sikaDonald Trump esingekho emthethweni, esinamawala, futhi esingagunyaziwe kulandela ukuhlasela kwezikhali zamakhemikhali eSyria, imiyalezo evela kwabezindaba ehlangene yaqala ukusebenza ibhebhezela amalangabi ezempi yase-US enzima phesheya kwezilwandle. Ngo-Ephreli 13, u-Commander-in-chief uTrump waziqhenya ngokumemezela ukuthi amasosha ase-US alahle ibhasi le-MOAB elingamaphawundi angama-21,000 e-Afghanistan.
Izinga lomonakalo odaleke ngokuqhunyiswa kwalo “Mama Wawo Wonke Amabhomu” licishe libe likhulu njengomonakalo wokuqhuma kwesikhali senuzi esihlakaniphile. I-MOAB kubikwa ukuthi yasetshenziswa ukucekela phansi uhlelo oluyinkimbinkimbi lwemigudu engaphansi komhlaba efihlwe ngaphansi kwenhlabathi yase-Afghan.
Umlayezo awuzange ulahleke e-Pyongyang: Inhloko-dolobha yaseNyakatho Korea ihlezi phezu kwedolobha elingcwatshwe elinezingqimba ezifihliwe ezingaphansi komhlaba, izindawo zesiteji, nemigudu. (Ngokwerekhodi, iRussia inesikhali esibizwa ngokuthi “uyise wawo wonke amabhomu.” Kukholakala ukuthi sicishe siphindwe kane kunobukhulu be-MOAB kaTrump.)
Ukufutha Izingane, Okubi: Ukuziqhumisa zibe Izingcezu, Akuyona Inkinga
Ukukhala kwempi yasendulo ehlukile/yama impiriyali sekuphinde kwaduma kuma-airwaves aseMelika. Njengoba uHallie Jackson we-NBC abike ngokujabula ngo-Ephreli 6, 2017: “Namuhla ebusuku, kuwuvivinyo olukhulu lomkhuzi omkhulu: Ukuthi asebenze amasosha—kulokhu, ngemuva kwenhlekelele yobuntu ebambe izwe nomhlaba ubukele. .”
Izingxabano ezimbili: (1) Abanye bangaphikisa ngokuthi uvivinyo olukhulu lukamongameli lusemandleni okugwema izimpi ezingadingekile. (2) Nalapha futhi, inkulumo ethi “inhlekelele yosizo lwabantu” isetshenziswa ukuze kuqhutshekwe nokukhwabanisa kwezilimi okwaziwa ngokuthi “impi yokusiza abantu.” Ukuze "kuthunyelwe umlayezo" mayelana nokubulala "izingane, izingane ezinhle" zaseSyria, ukuhlasela kwezindiza kukaTrump kubulale inqwaba yezakhamizi zaseSyria, okubandakanya okungenani izingane eziyi-11.
Futhi bekukuphi ukukhathazeka kukaTrump ngezingane-kanye "nezingane ezinhle" -ngenkathi ukuhlasela kwakhe kukaJanuwari 29 eYemen kwabulala abantu abangama-30? Abayisishiyagalolunye kwezisulu bekuyizingane ezincane, okuhlanganisa nosana olulodwa nojahidada abambalwa.

'Umugqa Obomvu' ka-Obama: Icala 'Lezindaba Ezingelona iqiniso'
Ukubizelwa kwezandla kwesibili kwe-NBC bekusekelwe emibonweni embalwa engaphikiswa. Phakathi kwalokhu kukhona isimangalo sase-US sokuthi yiyona yodwa enelungelo elikhethekile phakathi kwazo zonke izizwe ukuba isebenze njengejaji namajaji lapho ikhipha amabhomu nemicibisholo ye-cruise. Nokuthi sisebenzisa kuphela leli “lungelo” elibulalayo ukuze sivikele “izithakazelo zethu ezibalulekile zezwe.”
Omunye umbono ojwayelekile ukuthi umholi waseSyria uBashar al-Assad usephinde “waqhumisa abantu bakhe ngegesi.” Kuze kube manje, akukabikho uphenyo oluzimele lokuthi ngubani owaba nesandla ekukhululweni kwamakhemikhali abulalayo aholela ekufeni okubuhlungu nokunyantisayo kwabantu abadala nezingane zaseSyria okungenani ezingama-70 esifundazweni sase-Idlib.
Esikhundleni salokho, sizwa futhi sifunda izinkomba ezingapheli zokuhlehla kukaMongameli Barack Obama "umugqa obomvu" ngo-2013 (icala elingamanga lokuthi wehlulekile ukumelana no-Assad mayelana nokusetshenziswa kwezikhali zamakhemikhali edolobheni laseGhouta). Le meme isiphenduke ingxenye ebalulekile yokucabanga kweqembu phakathi “kwabantu ababalulekile” e-DC Beltway kodwa akuyona into edlula “izindaba ezingamanga” ezisetshenziselwa ukuqinisa izingcingo zokuguquguquka kwemisipha yezempi yePentagon.
I-White House kanye nabezindaba abajwayelekile baseMelika basaqhubeka nokunanela icala lokuthi u-Obama ngandlela thize “unecala” ngokufa kwabantu edolobhaneni laseSyria, iKhan Sheikhun ngenxa yokwehluleka kwakhe ukuhlasela umbuso ka-Assad ngokusebenzisa izikhali zamakhemikhali kulandela ukuhlasela kuka-Ghouta ngo-2013. U-Obama usaqhubeka nokuba nephutha ngokwehluleka ukwenza okuthile ngemuva kokuthi u-Assad "eqe umugqa obomvu."
Ukuphindaphinda la manga kudinga ukuthi umuntu angawanaki amaqiniso amabili omlando
(1) Ngo-2013, esebenza ngokunxusa kweMoscow, u-Assad wamukela isiphakamiso sikaNobhala Wezwe ngaleso sikhathi uJohn Kerry sokugwema impi echitha igazi ngokunikela ngezikhali zakhe zamakhemikhali ezikhona.
(2) Uphenyo lwe-UN lwehlulekile ukuthola noma yibuphi ubufakazi obuqinile bokuthi u-Assad wayenomthwalo wemfanelo wezinsolo zokusebenzisa igesi ye-sarin nerve eGhouta. Esikhundleni salokho, uphenyo olwalandela lwe-UN kanye nePentagon lushiye obala ukuthi kungenzeka ukuthi igesi ebulalayo isetshenziswe abaphikisi baka-Assad abahlubukayo abahlela ukuhlasela ngethemba "lokubumba" umbuso. (Bona izingcaphuno zomlando ngezansi.)
Ezinye Izihloko Ezibalulekile Ezivela Ezingotsheni Zezindaba Zezazi Zemvelo Ezilwa Nempi:
Indaba ka-2013 ethi, "U-Assad Udubule Abantu Bakhe" Kwakuyizindaba ezingamanga
(April 6, 2017) - Noma kunjalo I-New York Times uhola icala elibhekene nohulumeni waseSyria ngezinsolo zokuhlasela kwamakhemikhali kuleli sonto, uhlehla buthule ekuqinisekiseni kwawo kwangaphambilini ngecala laseSyria-sarin lango-2013.
Lokho Imithombo Yezindaba Yase-US Engakutsheli Ngayo Ngempi Yamakhemikhali eSyria
(Septhemba 7, 2013) - Izisulu ezinyantisayo zezakhamuzi zaqhubeka esigamekweni sango-Agasti 21 esacekela phansi idolobhana laseDamaseku. I-US yayizimisele ukuhlasela izinhloso zaseSyria ngaphambi kokuba abahloli be-UN bahlole ukuthi yiziphi izikhali zamakhemikhali-uma zikhona-ezisetshenzisiwe. Khonamanjalo, abaphenyi be-UN bakuqinisekisile ukuthi amavukelambuso asekelwa yi-US abulale izakhamuzi namasosha esebenzisa i-sarin nezinye izikhali zamakhemikhali-okungenzeka zinikezwe yiSaudi Arabia.
Izihlubuki (Hhayi iSiriya) Zasebenzisa Igesi Yezinzwa; Kuhlelwe i-Arm Drones no-Sarin
(May 31, 2013)—Iziphathimandla e-Iraq zithole itulo lamavukelambuso e-al-Qaeda asekelwa yi-US eSyria lokusebenzisa ama-drones anganamuntu ukuletha izikhali zamakhemikhali. Okhulumela uMnyango wezokuVikela uthe kuboshwe amadoda amahlanu ngemuva kokuba uphiko lwezobunhloli lubaqaphe izinyanga ezintathu. Abaqambi babenezindawo zokusebenzela ezintathu zokukhiqiza i-sarin negesi yesinaphi. Kuphinde kwashaqwa izindiza zamathoyizi ezilawulwa kude ezinkundleni zokuxhumana. Kubikwa ukuthi amavukela-mbuso ayenezinhlelo zokushushumbisa izindiza ezingenayo izindiza ezihlome nge-sarin ziye eYurophu naseNyakatho Melika.
Umlando omfushane Wempi Yamakhemikhali
(September 7, 2013)—Kusukela ngo-February 2013, i-Albania, i-India, i-Iraq, i-Libya, i-Russia, ne-US isavuma ukuthi inezikhali zamakhemikhali. Ngaphansi kwe-Chemical Weapons Convention, amazwe asayinile kudingeka ukuthi acekele phansi inqwaba yawo esele. I-Russia kanye ne-US, nenani elikhulu kunawo wonke emhlabeni lezikhali zamakhemikhali nezebhayoloji, abakayiqedi inqwaba yabo.
Imibhalo Ye-Pentagon Iqinisekisa Abahlubuki Basebenzisa I-Sarin Gas
(September 12, 2013)—Izobunhloli zase-US azikabumbuli ubufakazi bokuthi uMongameli waseSyria u-Bashar Assad wayala ngokuqondile ukuhlaselwa kwamakhemikhali ngenyanga edlule kubantu abavamile endaweni yaseDamaseku. Umbiko ohlukanisiwe wePentagon otholwe yi-WND uyaqinisekisa ukuthi i-sarin yathathwa e-Jabhat al-Nusra Front esekelwa yi-US. Amanye ama-sarin (avela e-al-Qaida e-Iraq) angena eTurkey lapho ashaqwa khona. Abanye bebengase basetshenziswe ekuhlaselweni kwabavukeli okubulalayo ngoMashi 19 onyakeni wezakhamizi namasosha e-Aleppo.
Amavukelambuso Ngemva Kokuhlasela Kwangaphambili Kwezikhali Zamakhemikhali ZaseSyria
(August 26, 2013)—Abaphenyi bamalungelo abantu be-UN bakhulume nezisulu zempi yombango yaseSyria futhi baqoqa ubufakazi bezokwelapha obukhomba ukuthi amavukela-mbuso aseSyria asebenzise igesi ye-sarin nerve. Khonamanjalo, izinsolo zokusetshenziswa kwayo nguhulumeni azikaqinisekiswa. Amasosha aphikisayo kuthiwa asebenzise amakhemikhali angaziwa ezakhamuzini zasedolobheni laseSaraqib kanye nesifundazwe esisenyakatho-ntshonalanga ye-Idlib ukuze asole amasosha ase-Assad ngokuhamba kwesikhathi.
I-Syria, i-Sarin, kanye ne-Subterfuge: Bakwenza Konke
(Disemba 8, 2013)—Izinsolo zokuthi ukuhlasela kwegesi i-sarin okuthiwa kwaqalwa amasosha ka-Bashar al-Assad waseSyria ngokumelene nezikhundla zamavukelambuso edolobheni laseGhouta ngo-Agasti 21 kwakuyifulegi elingamanga lalihlale likhona. Manje sinobufakazi obuqinile obukhomba kuleyo ndawo.
Bika: Amasosha aseSyria athola ama-Chemical Agents Emihubheni Ehlubukayo
(Agasti 24, 2013)—Imibiko ye-TV yesifunda saseSyria ibika ukuthi amasosha athole amakhemikhali emhubheni yabavukeli eDamaseku kulokho abanye abakubiza ngokuthi umzamo wokuqinisa icala elibhekene nomsolwa wokuhlaselwa kwezikhali zamakhemikhali—okusekelwe emizamweni yase-UK kanye ne-US yokuthola ukwesekwa komphakathi “ ukungenelela kosizo” (okufana nalokho okwenziwa eLibya ngo-2011). Ngaleso sikhathi, akekho obuza umbuzo obaluleke kakhulu: ingabe izikhali zamakhemikhali zangempela ezisezingeni lezempi zazisetshenziswa nhlobo?
Uhulumeni Wase-UK Vumela Inkampani YaseBrithani Ithumele Amakhemikhali Egesi Yezinzwa eSyria
(September 2, 2013)—Uhulumeni waseBrithani wamangalelwa “ngokuyekelela okumangalisayo” ekulawuleni izikhali ngemva kokuvela kokuthi izikhulu zokuphatha kukaDavid Cameron zigunyaze ukuthunyelwa kwamakhemikhali amabili asetshenziselwa ukukhiqiza izinzwa eSyria. UNobhala wezeBhizinisi wase-UK kuzomele achaze ukuthi kungani inkampani yaseBrithani yanikezwa izimvume zokuthumela amakhemikhali ngesikhathi esifanayo kwakunovalo lokuthi umbuso ungase usebenzise izikhali zamakhemikhali kubantu bawo..
“Uhlu Olubanzi Lwezinketho”:
Amabhomu Enuzi, Ukubulawa, kanye Nokuhlasela Okufihlekile
Ngo-Ephreli 7, i-2917 Izindaba ze-NBC Nightly libike ukuthi "lifunde imininingwane ekhethekile mayelana nemfihlo ephezulu, izinketho ezinempikiswano kakhulu ezethulwa kumongameli ukuze kuthathwe izinyathelo zempi ngokumelene neNyakatho Korea."
I-NBC ifake ingxoxo no-Adm. James Stavridis (Ret.), I-Nightly News' Chief International Security and Diplomacy Analyst. "Kuyimpoqo ukwethula inqwaba yezinketho," kusho u-Stavridis, "Yilokho okwenza omongameli bakwazi ukwenza izinqumo ezifanele: lapho bebona zonke izinketho etafuleni eliphambi kwabo."
Kodwa “uhlu olubanzi lwezinketho” lubonakala luncane ngendlela eyingozi. Esikhundleni sokubheka izinketho zediplomatic (okungabandakanya ukwamukela Isiphakamiso sase-China "sokumisa kabili". ukuthi iNyakatho imise ukuhlolwa kwayo kwemicibisholo neyenuzi ukuze ishintshele iNingizimu Korea kanye ne-US eqeda ukuzivocavoca kwayo okuvusa inkanuko), okuwukuphela kwezinketho ezibekwe etafuleni likaMongameli kwaba:
Inketho 1: Izikhali Zenuzi eziya eNingizimu Korea
Inketho yesi-2: “Ukunqunywa kwekhanda”: Ithagethi futhi Ubulale
Inketho yesi-3: Isenzo Esiyimfihlo
Izinketho eziphezulu eziyimfihlo zase-US zaseNyakatho Korea
UCynthia McFadden, NBC Intatheli Enkulu Yezomthetho Nezophenyo, ibeke izindlela ezintathu ongakhetha kuzo. Esokuqala sasihilela ukubuyisela emuva isivumelwano esinamashumi eminyaka sokwehliswa kwezinga kanye nokuthunyelwa kweqoqo elisha lezikhali zenuzi zase-US emuva eSouth Korea.
Ngokusho kukaMcFadden (osebenza njenge-Megaphone yabezindaba ye-White House), inketho yesibili kungaba isiteleka "sokukhipha ikhanda" esiklanyelwe: "ukukhomba nokubulala umholi waseNyakatho Korea, uKim Jong-un kanye nabanye abaholi abaphezulu abaphethe imicibisholo nezikhali zenuzi. .”
Nokho, uStravridis uxwayise ngokuthi “ukukhipha ikhanda kuhlale kuyisu elihehayo lapho ubhekene nomholi ongabikezeleki futhi oyingozi kakhulu.” (La mazwi agcwele indida emangazayo uma kubhekwa ukuthi le ncazelo yomholi waseKorea ifanela nomholi waseMelika, uDonald Trump.) NgokukaStravridis, “Umbuzo uwukuthi: kwenzekani ngosuku ngemva kokunquma ikhanda.”
Inketho yesithathu ihilela ukungena amasosha aseNingizimu Korea kanye ne-US Special Forces eNyakatho ukuze "bakhiphe ingqalasizinda ebalulekile" futhi ngokunokwenzeka bahlele ukuhlasela okuhlosiwe kwezombusazwe.
Inketho yokuqala iphula izivumelwano eziningi zokunqanda ukusakazeka kwezikhali zenuzi. (Noma kunjalo, i-NBC iyasazisa kalula, kunosekelo olukhulayo eNingizimu lokufaka kabusha izikhali ze-athomu eziqondiswe emngceleni waseNyakatho Korea.)
Inketho yesibili neyesithathu ihilela ukwephulwa kobukhosi kanye nokwephulwa okukhulu komthetho wamazwe ngamazwe.
Eminyakeni edlule, abezindaba bomhlaba babhale izindatshana eziningi ezichaza isifiso sikaWashington sokuhlasela iNorth Korea nokuketula umbuso, ngisho lokho okubandakanya "isiteleka sokunqunyulwa kwekhanda" lobugebengu.
Manje njengoba NBC inikezwe imvume yokuthi "ijwayeze" ukubulawa komholi wezombangazwe ngokusakaza ukubulawa kukaKim Jong-Un "njengenketho" ephusile, izibalo zezwe sezikhule kakhulu.
Izijeziso kuze kube manje zehlulekile ukushintsha ukuziphatha kukaKim. Kuyangabaza ukuthi izinsongo zase-US ezifuna ukubulawa kwakhe zizokwenza noma yini ngaphezu kokuqinisa ukuzimisela kwakhe ukunika amasosha akhe amandla "okuqeda" izikhali ezingathumela "umlayezo" eWashington kanye namashumi ezinkulungwane zamasosha ase-US azungeze izwe lakhe. eningizimu, eJapane naseGuam nakwezinye iziqhingi eziphethwe yiPentagon ePacific.
Enye inketho esingalulekwa kangcono ukuthi siyihlole yileyo ehlongozwe yiChina: IWashington kufanele imise “imidlalo yayo yokuhlasela” emikhulu (futhi ebiza kakhulu) ngasemngceleni nasezigwini zaseNyakatho Korea; ngokushintshana, uKim uzovuma ukumisa ukuhlolwa kwezikhali zenuzi ezicekela phansi amandla nemicibisholo.
Kubonakala kuyisixazululo esinobulungisa—futhi esihlakaniphile. Kuze kube manje, iWashington neSouth Korea bakuchithile ngokuthi "akuqali."
