미국' 전쟁의 S 문화 문제점 아닙니다 이 선거
화요일, 2008년 7월 8일
Sherwood 로스의 | 미국 사람들이 아마 이 대통령 캠페인에서 대략 듣기 위하여 려고 하고 있지 않는 1개의 문제점은 그것 도덕적으로 그리고 재정적으로 파산에서 이 국가, 파괴에서 군 산업 복합물을 (MIC) 멈추는 방법 이다. 그 또는 그녀가 간주된다 하지 않도록 인류에 대하여 매일 조약 위반 범죄의 펜타곤 심한 그릇된 판단 그리고 낭비의 어떤 새로운 폭로를, 가져오는 사정, 화제 끄집어 낼 것일 백악관 도전을 위한 후보자 인가? na? ve? 또는? 연약한? 방위에 관하여. 아직, MIC는 납세자에서 달러의 조를 빠는 지상으로 이 국가를 달리고 있는가? 수선과 재생의 긴급한 필요에 있는 민간인 분야에 지갑 그리고 황폐. MIC는 연민 없이 심혼 없이 짐승, 이다. 그것은 전쟁을 세계도처에서, 어떤 사기 구실든지에 수행해, 수천 또는 수백만을 그들의 죽음에 보낸. 그것은 도덕 이 없다; 그것은 입술 서비스를 제외하고 종교적인 가르침에서 아무것도 배우지 않았다; 그리고 그것의 민간인 직원은 핵무기 및 항공 모함을 제조하는 그들의 일에 사과 과수원이 에 의하여 설치하거나 꽃을 올리고 있었다 처럼 간다. 펜타곤이 建設中 일 때, 루즈벨트 장의 일원은 수많은 군 사무실이 워싱턴 D.C.의 주위에 뿌린 1개의 지붕 이하, 의 지혜를 소집 문제시했다 그들은 지구에 가장 중대한 구조의 한으로 최고 군 힘의 긴박한 강화를 두려워했다; 그들은 전쟁 무기가 그 자신 생명력 지닐지도 모르다, 너무 고민했다. 비극으로, 그들의 공포는 오늘 추악한 현실로 수년에 걸쳐 변형되었다. 제임스 Carroll가 안으로 쓴 대로? 전쟁의 집? (Houghton Mifflin), 1965년은 거의 6 백만명의 미국인까지에서 펜타곤 달린다 기업을 채택되었다. 어쨌든 제 2 차 세계 대전을 이후 20 년에서? 펜타곤은 거의 $100 10억의, 10 시간 건강의 모든 양상에, 동일한 기간에 있는 교육 정진된 연방 비용 및 복지를 썼는가.? 1997형의, 아버지 필립 Berrigan, 인도주의까지와 반전 행동주의자는, 미국에 혈액 유출을 위한 형무소에 있는 2 년에 짧게 그를 선고할 재판관을 말할 수 있었다. 군함: ? 미국은 1946년부터 팔 14개의 조 달러에 소비했다. Our government has intervened in the affairs of fifty nations and has violated the laws of God and humanity by designing, deploying, using, and threatening to use atomic weapons.? Carroll sees it in much the same light: ?The Pentagon is now the dead center of an open-ended martial enterprise that no longer pretends to be defense?the Pentagon has, more than ever, become a place to fear.? ?What the Bush administration has done,? Carroll writes, ?is to lay bare the real character of the ?disastrous rise? of Pentagon power of which Eisenhower warned in 1961. In Iraq, despite America?s overwhelming military might, there will be no winning ever.? Carroll?s words sound more prophetic each time another general testifies the Pentagon is ?making progress? but the situation remains ?fragile? and so we must stay on an on. Two years ago Carroll literally predicted Senator John McCain?s comment about staying in Iraq for a hundred years if need be, writing, ?there will be no winning ever. Whether the U.S. occupation is terminated abruptly or is maintained for years, violence and mayhem will define Iraq indefinitely, while the rest of the Middle East copes with Iraqi-spawned waves of chaos.? McCain says, if elected, he will be out of Iraq by 2013, but as Senator Joseph Biden pointed out in a recent talk carried on C-Span, McCain gave no specifics. And so one begins to suspect the goal in Iraq is not necessarily to win a war but to make war again and again, forever and a day, so the MIC can prosper while non-defense sectors starve, so that government contractors can erect a monster embassy in Baghdad and huge, permanent military bases nearby to dominate the oil-rich Middle East. Carroll writes the U.S. under President Bush has ?normalized? war: ?Not noted by most Americans, a new archipelago of U.S. military bases stretched across the Middle East into the heart of the former Soviet Union?Such forward basing of forces was designed to control, by means of ?regime change? and ?prevention,? emerging political trends around the globe, with the unabashed goal of guaranteeing U.S. dominance everywhere.? (America operates about 1,000 military bases at home and more than 700 overseas.) ?Such a strategy,? Carroll goes on to write, ?assumes not only the possession of unparalleled military power but the display of it and the ready use of it. Under George W. Bush, a self-styled war president, ?the normalization of war? was thus established.? What?s more, Carroll writes, under former Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld, the Pentagon in 2002 embarked ?on the stunning project of developing a new generation of nuclear weapons including a burrowing device designed to go after underground targets and ?mini-nukes? to be used in concert with a conventional attack.? The effect of all this, Carroll writes, ?is to legitimize nuclear-based power politics, giving other nations, friend and foe alike, compelling reasons to acquire a nuclear capacity, if only for deterrence, and prompting them to behave in similar ways.? Carroll says the U.S. return to nuclear development was to spur Iran and North Korea to become nuclear-capable and to make states that renounced the atom—such as Brazil, Egypt, South Africa— rethink that decision. Meanwhile, Carroll says, Russia, China, Israel, India and Pakistan ?are all furiously adding to their nuclear arsenals? and ?The Pentagon has become the engine of proliferation.? If the public hasn?t figured it out yet, the United States of America cannot go on this way forever, spending nearly half of every tax dollar on war. Besides the tragedy of our own 4,000 killed and 30,000 wounded in a deceitful war for oil, and the tragedy of perhaps 1 million Iraqis killed and a million more wounded, and four million forced from their homes, and their nation in ruins, the Bush regime has also turned much of the world against America and American brands. Soon, Americans workers and their families may be suffering economically as they never have since the Great Depression. And the tyrannosaurus Rex in the family room smashing our domestic tranquility is the MIC. President Eisenhower had the guts to warn us of it. Senator McCain is a traveling salesman for it. And Senator Obama remains to be heard from. Yo, Senator Obama! Have Your Say: AMERICA’S CULTURE OF WAR NOT AN ISSUE THIS ELECTION Please read our posting guidelines before posting.
