Ukukhishwa kwamazwe athile “engqungqutheleni yentando yeningi” yase-US akuyona indaba eseceleni. Iyona kanye inhloso yengqungquthela. Futhi amazwe akhishiwe awazange akhishwe ngenxa yokwehluleka ukuhlangabezana nezindinganiso zokuziphatha zalabo abamenyiwe noma lowo owenza isimemo. Abamenyiwe bekungadingeki nokuba babe amazwe, njengoba kumenywe ngisho nomholi wokuketulwa umbuso owesekwa yi-US ovela eVenezuela. Kanjalo nabamele i-Israel, i-Iraq, iPakistan, i-DRC, iZambia, i-Angola, iMalaysia, iKenya, futhi - ngokugxekayo - ama-pawns emdlalweni: iTaiwan ne-Ukraine.
Imuphi umdlalo? Umdlalo wokuthengisa izikhali. Okuyiphuzu lonke. Bheka uMnyango Wezwe LaseMelika iwebhusayithi kwiNgqungquthela Yentando Yeningi. Phezulu: “'Intando yeningi ayenzeki ngengozi. Kufanele sikuvikele, sikulwele, sikuqinise, sikuvuselele.' -UMongameli uJoseph R. Biden, Omnci.
Akumele nje “uvikele” futhi “ulwe,” kodwa kufanele ukwenze lokho ngokumelene nezinsongo ezithile, futhi uthole iqembu lezigelekeqe elikhulu ekulweni ukuze “ubhekane nezinsongo ezinkulu imibuso yentando yeningi ebhekene nazo namuhla ngezenzo ezihlangene.” Abamele intando yeningi kule ngqungquthela emangalisayo bangochwepheshe bentando yeningi kangangokuthi bangakwazi "ukuvikela intando yeningi namalungelo abantu ekhaya nasemazweni angaphandle." Ingxenye yaphesheya engase ikwenze unwaye ikhanda uma ucabanga ngentando yeningi njengokuhlobene, uyazi, intando yeningi. Ukwenza kanjani kwelinye izwe? Kodwa gcina ukufunda, nezindikimba zeRussiagate ziyacaca:
"[A] abaholi bombuso bafinyelela ngaphesheya kwemingcele ukubukela phansi intando yeningi - kusukela ekubhekiseni izintatheli nabavikeli bamalungelo abantu ukuze bagxambukele okhethweni."
Uyabona, inkinga akukhona ukuthi i-United States kade yaba khona, empeleni, i-oligarchy. Inkinga akusona isimo sase-US sokubamba okuphezulu ezivumelwaneni eziyisisekelo zamalungelo abantu, umphikisi ophezulu womthetho wamazwe ngamazwe, umhlukumezi ophezulu we-veto e-United Nations, isiboshwa esiphezulu, umbhubhisi ophezulu wemvelo, umdayisi wezikhali ophezulu, umxhasi ophezulu wobushiqela, impi ephezulu. isiqalisi, kanye nomxhasi ophezulu wokuketula umbuso. Inkinga ayikhona ukuthi, esikhundleni sokwenza intando yeningi kwiNhlangano Yezizwe Ezihlangene, uhulumeni wase-US uzama ukwakha inkundla entsha lapho, ngokuhlukile futhi ngisho nangaphezulu kunangaphambili, elingana kakhulu kunawo wonke umuntu. Inkinga akulona ukhetho oluyinhloko olwakhiwe iRussiagate ukuze iphazamiseke. Futhi akukho lutho oluyinkinga ukhetho lwangaphandle lwama-85, sibala nje thina ukwazi futhi ungabhala, ukuthi uhulumeni wase-US uye wagxambukela. Inkinga iRussia. Futhi akukho okuthengisa izikhali njengeRussia - yize iChina ibamba iqhaza.
Okuxakile ngengqungquthela yentando yeningi wukuthi ngeke ibe khona intando yeningi emehlweni. Angisho ngisho ngokuzenzisa noma ngokusemthethweni. Umphakathi wase-US uvotela lutho, ngisho nokuthi izobanjwa yini izingqungquthela zentando yeningi. Emuva ngeminyaka yawo-1930s iLudlow Amendment yacishe yasinika ilungelo lokuvota ukuthi noma iyiphi impi engase iqalwe, kodwa uMnyango Wezwe wawuvala lowo mzamo ngokuqinile, futhi awuphindanga wabuya.
Uhulumeni wase-US akulona nje uhlelo lokumelela abantu abakhethiwe esikhundleni sentando yeningi, futhi ukhohlakele kakhulu ohluleka ngokuyisisekelo ukumelela, kodwa futhi uqhutshwa isiko eliphikisana nentando yeningi lapho osopolitiki bevame ukuziqhayisa emphakathini ngokushaya indiva imibono yomphakathi. futhi bashayelwa ihlombe ngakho. Uma osherifu noma amajaji engaziphathi kahle, ukugxeka okukhulu kuvame ukuthi akhethiwe. Inguquko edume kakhulu kunemali ehlanzekile noma imithombo yezindaba enobulungiswa wukunqunywa kwemikhawulo yesikhathi esimelene nentando yeningi. Ezombusazwe yigama elingcolile e-United States kangangokuthi ngithole i-imeyili namuhla evela eqenjini lezishoshovu lisola elinye lamaqembu amabili ezombusazwe ase-US "ngokwenza ukhetho lube yipolitiki." (Kwaba khona ukuthi babecabanga ngokuziphatha okuhlukahlukene kokucindezela abavoti, okuvame kakhulu emkhankasweni womhlaba wentando yeningi, lapho owinile kulo lonke ukhetho “engekho kulokhu okungenhla” futhi iqembu elidume kakhulu “kungekhona.”)
Ngeke nje kube khona intando yeningi kazwelonke emehlweni. Ngeke futhi kube khona into yentando yeningi ezokwenzeka kule ngqungquthela. Iqembu lezigelekeqe eliqokwe yizikhulu ngeke livote noma lifinyelele ukuvumelana nganoma yini. Ukubamba iqhaza kwezokuphatha ongakuthola ngisho nasemcimbini we-Occupy Movement ngeke kubonakale. Futhi ngeke zibe khona izintatheli zezinkampani ezimemezayo kuzo zonke “IYINI ISIDINGO SAKHO ESINGEYEDWA? SIYINI ISIDINGO SAKHO ESISODWA?" Sebevele banezinhloso ezimbalwa ezingacacile ngokuphelele nezobuzenzisi kuwebhusayithi - ezikhiqizwe, vele, ngaphandle kwengxenye yentando yeningi eqashwayo noma umashiqela oyedwa elinyazwa kule nqubo.
Angifuni ukukuphoqelela izinkulungwane zamakhasi, ake ngikhethe ngokungakhethi nje oyedwa kwabamenyiweyo eNgqungqutheleni Yentando Yeningi njengoba kukhonjwe uMnyango Wezwe LaseMelika: iDemocratic Republic of the Congo. Nakhu okuncane nje ukuthi uMnyango Wezwe uyichaza kanjani i-DRC onyakeni odlule:
“Izindaba ezibalulekile zamalungelo abantu zazihlanganisa: ukubulala okungekho emthethweni noma ngokungafanele, kuhlanganise nokubulawa kwabantu ngaphandle kwenkantolo; ukunyamalala ngenkani; ukuhlukunyezwa namacala onya, okungenabuntu, noma okwehlisa isithunzi noma ukujeziswa; izimo zasejele ezinzima nezisongela ukuphila; ukuboshwa ngokungafanele; iziboshwa zezombusazwe noma ababoshiwe; izinkinga ezinkulu ngokuzimela kophiko lwezobulungiswa; ukugxambukela ngokungenamthetho noma okungekho emthethweni ekuyimfihlo; ukuhlukumeza okungathi sína ezingxabanweni zangaphakathi, okuhlanganisa ukubulawa kwezakhamuzi, ukunyamalala okuphoqelelwe noma ukuthunjwa, nokuhlushwa nokuhlukunyezwa ngokomzimba noma ukujeziswa, ukuqashwa ngokungemthetho noma ukusetshenziswa kwamasosha ezingane ngamaqembu ahlomile ngokungekho emthethweni, nokunye ukuhlukumeza okuhlobene nokungqubuzana; imingcele engathi sína ekukhulumeni ngokukhululekile nabezindaba, okuhlanganisa udlame, izinsongo zodlame, noma ukuboshwa ngokungafanele kwezintatheli, ukucwaninga, kanye nenkulumo-ze yobugebengu; ukuphazamiseka kwamalungelo okuhlangana ngokuthula kanye nenkululeko yokuhlangana; izenzo ezibucayi zenkohlakalo esemthethweni; ukuntuleka kophenyo kanye nokuziphendulela ngodlame olubhekiswe kwabesifazane; ukushushumbiswa kwabantu; ubugebengu obuhlanganisa udlame noma izinsongo zodlame olubhekiswe kubantu abakhubazekile, amalungu esizwe, amaqembu ezinhlanga, kanye nezinhlanga, kanye nabantu bomdabu; ubugebengu obubandakanya udlame noma usongo lodlame olubhekiswe kwabesifazane abathandana bodwa, abathandana nabesilisa nabesifazane, abathandana nabesilisa nabesifazane, abathandanayo nabesilisa nabesifazane; nokuba khona kwezinhlobo ezimbi kakhulu zokusetshenziswa kwezingane.”
Ngakho-ke, mhlawumbe akuyona “intando yeningi” noma amalungelo abantu. Kungenzeka yini ukuthi umenywe kulezi zinto? Akuyona into. Emazweni angama-30 e-NATO, i-28 kuphela kanye namazwe ahlukahlukene ahloselwe ukwengezwa, enza ukusika (iHungary neTurkey kungenzeka ukuthi bacasule othile noma bahlulekile ukuthenga izikhali ezifanele). Iphuzu nje ukuthi ungamemi iRussia noma iChina. Yilokho kuphela. Futhi bobabili sebevele bacasukile. Ngakho impumelelo isizuziwe.
