Nā te whai wāhi atu o Saudi Arabia me ōna hoa whenua, tae atu ki a Īrāna, ki te pakanga ā-iwi i Yemen, kua tino uaua te whakatau i te āhuatanga.
E rua ngā kaiwhakaari o te pakanga: ko te kāwanatanga o Saudi Arabia me Īrāna. Kei te whakamahi ēnei whenua e rua i ō rātou hoa ā-rohe ki te haere tonu i te pakanga ki a rātou anō. Ko te mutunga iho he raruraru ā-tangata whakamataku i Yemen. Tekau mano ngā tāngata whenua kua mate, ā, rau mano ngā tāngata o Yemen kua akiakihia kia wehe atu i ō rātou kāinga. Ko te mea kino rawa atu, tata ki te 18 miriona tāngata kei te tūtaki ki te riri o te hemokai.
Ko te whakakeke, i tīmata mai i ngā nekehanga a te iwi whānui e aro ana ki te turaki i te kāwanatanga oligarki pakari 22 tau te roa o Abdullah Saleh, arā, ko te Arab Spring, i āta huri hei pakanga ā-iwi, he rite ki ērā i Hiria me Libya. I tangohia a Abdullah Saleh i te mana, engari kāore te kāwanatanga o Yemen i rerekē, kāore hoki i tukuna te herekore ki te iwi. I ngana a Mansour Hadi, i whakakapi i a Abdullah Saleh, pērā i tōna mua, ki te whakahaere i te whenua i roto i te pōrearea, me te tautoko a Saudi Arabia me te United Arab Emirates. I tautokona te kāwanatanga manapori a Abdullah Saleh e te hononga o ngā rōpū tōrangapū rerekē. Ināianei, kua ngaro taua kotahitanga, ā, kei te uru ngā ope taua Sunni me Shia, me ngā hononga o ngā whakahaere pēnei i a Al-Qaeda me ISIS, ki te patu tahi.
Kua kitea nuitia hoki te United Arab Emirates i roto i te pakanga ā-iwi o Yemen i ngā tau e rua kua pahure ake nei, me te hono atu ki Saudi Arabia. I muri i te hinganga i te pakanga ki a Iran i Hiria, e whai ana a Saudi Arabia, inā koa me te tautoko a te UAE, kia mau tonu tōna aroaro ki Yemen. Haunga ēnei whenua e rua e mahi ana hei waha kōrero mō te pakanga ā-iwi, kei te haere tonu te tautoko nui a te US ki ngā kaitukino Houthi o te rohe, e whawhai ana ki te mana rohe o Iran.
Kāore e taea e tetahi te whakakore i te hiranga rautaki o Yemen. Koia te kuwaha ki te Moana Whero me te Moana Iniana. Ka taea anake te whakarite i te haumarutanga moana i roto i ēnei moana mā te mana i Yemen. He aha te take kāore te iwi Yemen tonu e whakamahi ana i tēnei mana, engari nā ngā mana rohe e whai ana ki te whakahaere i a rātou? He aha te take kāore e taea e ngā wāhanga Shia me Sunni i Yemen te whakakotahi i runga i ō rātou painga tahi, kaua e huna i muri i ngā mana rohe me te whakauru atu ki te whakataetae ki te whakangaromanga i a rātou anō?
Ina hoki, ehara tēnei i te take ā-rohe anake. He awe tika, he awe ā-kore rānei tō te US me Iharaira i tēnei pakanga ki Yemen. Ahakoa a Iharaira e whakapono ana ko tōna noho ki te Moana Whero he mea hei whakatū mana whakahaere i Yemen. Ko te noho o ngā kaipuke hōia ki te Moana Whero e whakaatu ana he pai ake te tiaki i ngā painga o te US me Iharaira i ērā o Saudi Arabia.
Ahakoa te kōrero a te tangata, ko Iran te mana toa i Yemen. Ahakoa te hononga i waenganui i a Saudi Arabia me te UAE, ko Iran anake te mana e whakamahi kaha ana i tōna mana i te rohe. Kei te mahi a Iran i tēnei mā te whakamahi i ngā Houthi, ā, e tautokona ana e ngā ope taua Shia me ētahi wāhanga o te taupori Sunni Yemeni. He mea nui a Yemen ki a Iran; ki te ngaro te mana whakahaere, ka waiho te rohe ki raro i te mana o Saudi. Nō reira, kei te whakamahi a Iran i tēnei pakanga ā-iwi hei huarahi whakawhitiwhiti kōrero, e whai ana ki te whakawhānui i tōna whenua tuawhenua o Āhia, o Awherika, me te Moana Whero. I mua ko Zanzibar te kuwaha o Iran ki Awherika. Ināianei, mā Yemen, e whai ana a Iran ki te whakapakari i tōna aroaro i te Moana Whero, i tōna ara ki Āhia, me tōna mana i Awherika.
Ko tā Iran kāore e mārama, kāore rānei e hiahia ki te mārama, ahakoa ka toa i te pakanga ā-iwi o Yemen, e kore tōna aroaro ki te rohe e pumau. Nō reira, e kore rawa he toa o te pakanga o Yemen; ko te hunga anake ka hinga, ko te iwi Yemen te nuinga. E mōhio ana te kāwanatanga o Saudi Arabia, te UAE, me Iran ki tēnei āhuatanga, engari nā tō rātou whakapehapeha i aukati i a rātou ki te kite me te whakaae.
Ka taea te wehewehe i a Yemen?
Tērā pea ka puta he wehewehenga i Yemen, he rite ki tērā o ngā tau 30 ki muri. Heoi, e kore te wehewehenga e mutu ai te pakanga ā-iwi; engari, ka kino rawa atu. Nā te mea kei te hono ngā rerekētanga whakapono ki Yemen ki te Raki me te Tonga. Ka noho tonu ngā Sunni me ngā Shiites i ngā taha e rua, ā, ka kore e taea te whakamanawanui i tō rātou mauahara tetahi ki tetahi. Kaua tetahi e kōrero mō te Yemen wehewehe. Me noho tonu a Yemen hei whenua kotahi, ā, me noho hei whenua e tutuki ai te rangimārie ā-roto.
Ko te huarahi matua ki te whakamutu i te pakanga ā-iwi me te wikitoria i te raruraru i Yemen ko te whakatenatena i ngā rōpū e whai wāhi ana. Ka taea e Turkey, me tana kaupapa here tangata-arotahi i whaihia mai i te tīmatanga i roto i te raruraru Yemen, te whai wāhi ki te whakatau i tēnei raruraru me te mutunga o te pakanga ā-iwi. Inaa, he uaua ki tētahi atu whenua te whakahaere i tēnei takawaenga i tua atu i a Türkiye.
E ai ki te Perehitini Erdoğan, "Ko te kohuru a Khashoggi, kāore i mahia e Kingi Salman engari i mahia e tetahi āpiha nui o Saudi," he mea nui ki te whakatau i te raruraru i Yemen. Kaua e pātai he aha te hononga. Nā te mea i whakaitihia e te aituā Khashoggi te mana me te rongonui o Piriniha Salman. Kāore he tangata whai whakaaro e kī ana ka noho a Piriniha Salman hei kingi mō Saudi Arabia a muri ake nei. Ahakoa he kingi ia, ka noho tonu tēnei kingitanga i raro i te atarangi o te kohuru, i roto i te huarahi kāore i te ture ahakoa ki te titiro a te iwi Saudi.
Kua whakatuwheratia te ara mō Türkiye ki te whakatenatena i te kāwanatanga o Saudi Arabia; kua noho a Turkey hei whenua me whakarongo ki tōna reo i te rohe. E mōhio ana a Kingi Salman o Saudi Arabia ki tēnei āhuatanga, ā, e hiahia ana ia ki te whakamutu i te pakanga i Yemen mā roto i ngā mahi a Türkiye. E whai ana te kāwanatanga o Saudi Arabia ki te whakatika i tōna āhua kua pakaru i roto i te ao Ihirama me te ao whānui. Ko te huarahi māmā ki te whakatika i tēnei āhua ko te takawaenga a Yemen me Türkiye.
He nui rānei te whakatenatena i te kāwanatanga o Saudi Arabia hei whakatau i te raruraru o Yemen? Kāore rawa. Me whakatenatena anō hoki a Iran. Heoi, he uaua ki te whakatenatena i a Iran, kāore nei i taea te whakatenatena kia whakamutua te pakanga i Hiria, i Yemen. Engari kua ngenge anō hoki a Iran i nāianei, ā, i tēnei wā, he mea nui ake a Hiria ki a ia i a Yemen. Me whakaae a Iran ki te whai wāhi ki te tautoko i te rangimārie i Hiria, i Yemen rānei. Me tere te mahi a Turkey i roto i te whakawhitiwhiti kōrero mō te rangimārie; me whakatau wawe te raruraru o Yemen i mua i te mutunga rawa…
