UGeorge Orwell, umbhali we "Fama yezilwanyana" kunye ne "1984", wayengumntu wokuqala ukusebenzisa ibinzana elithi "Imfazwe ebandayo" kwinqaku lephephandaba le-1945, elibhalwe emva nje kwebhombu yenyukliya yaseHiroshima naseNagasaki. Wathi “umphezulu womhlaba wahlulwa ube zizikumkani ezithathu ezikhulu, obunye buzimele yaye bunqunyulwe ekudibaneni nehlabathi elingaphandle, yaye ngabunye bulawulwa, ngokufihlakeleyo okanye kwenye, ngolawulo olunyulwe ngokwalo. Wabala i-US kunye neNtshona Yurophu njengenye, iSoviet Union njengesibini kunye neChina njengeyesithathu. Uqukumbele ngelithi, “ibhombu yeathom yeyona nto inokwenzeka ukuba iphelise iimfazwe ezinkulu ngeendleko zokwandisa ngonaphakade uxolo olungenaluxolo”.
Ndicinga ukuba uyifumene ngokufanelekileyo-okanye kubonakala ngathi iMfazwe yoMlomo entsha iqhambuka phakathi kweNtshona kunye neRussia kunye ne-China spars kunye ne-US phezu koLwandle lwase-China kunye neziqithi zayo. Ewe inzima kakhulu kunoko. I-China neRashiya banobudlelwane obufanelekileyo. I-China kunye ne-US mhlawumbi azenzi nto ingaphaya kokucaphukisana kwaye iibhondi zorhwebo kunye notshintshiselwano lwabafundi zibophelela bobabini abantu abaphezulu kunye nabemi basondele kunye.
Kum iMfazwe yoMlomo entsha bubuvuvu kwizibonda. Nangakumbi eyokuqala.
UGeorge Kennan, owayesakuba ngunozakuzaku waseMelika eMoscow kunye nombhali wendlela yokuqulatha iSoviet Union, wayesoloko egxininisa ukuba uStalin wayengenanjongo yokuqengqeleka iitanki zakhe eNtshona Yurophu. Njengoko uRobert Legvold eshwankathela iimbono zikaKennan kwincwadi yakhe entsha enika umdla, “Imfazwe Yomlo”, “Isoyikiso esabangelwa yiSoviet Union yayiyezopolitiko, isoyikiso esabangelwa kukuba sesichengeni kwala mazwe kukubhukuqwa kweSoviet ngenxa yobuthathaka bezoqoqosho kunye nokungazinzi kwezopolitiko-isisongelo esifuna. impendulo yezopolitiko nezoqoqosho, hayi ezomkhosi”. Ngo-1948 uKennan wabhala, njengoko wayebona ukudalwa kwe-NATO, "Kutheni [iinkokeli zaseNtshona] zinqwenela ukuphambukisa ingqalelo kwinkqubo echanekileyo nethembisayo yokubuyisela uqoqosho ngokugxininisa ingozi engazange ibekho kodwa enokuthi ifakwe. ubukho ngokuxutyushwa kakhulu ngolungelelwaniso lwasemkhosini nangokukhuthaza ngokuphandle usukuzwano lomkhosi?”
YayinguKennan, exhaswa ngabantu abafana noRobert McNamara, (owayenguNobhala wezoKhuselo phantsi komongameli bobabini uKennedy noJohnson kunye nombhobho ozinikeleyo kwimfazwe yaseVietnam) owaxelela uMongameli uBill Clinton ukuba wayeyandisa i-NATO emva kokuphela kweMfazwe Yomlomo. ngokuchasa izithembiso ezininzi kuMongameli uMikhail Gorbachev ezenziwe ziinkokeli zaseMelika kunye neYurophu kwaye le yayiyeyona mpazamo imbi kakhulu. Ngoku ubulungu be-NATO buye banda ukuya kumda waseRashiya kwaye imikhosi ye-NATO ifakwe kufutshane neRashiya kunokuba kuvunyelwene noGorbachev. Ngapha koko, inkqubo ye-missile echasene ne-ballistic ngoku efakelwe ukuthintela uhlaselo lwase-Iranian ekucingelwa ukuba ingahanjiswa ngokuchasene neRussia.
Siyalibala ukuba iRussia ixhase i-US e-Afghanistan kwaye ivumele izixhobo zemfazwe zaseMelika ziqhutywe koololiwe bayo. Siyalibala ukuba uPutin wayengowokuqala ukubiza uMongameli uGeorge W. Bush emva kokuhlaselwa kwe-9 / 11. Siyalibala ukuba uPutin wayecingisisa ngokubuza i-NATO yobulungu. Siyalibala ukuba bobabini uGorbachev noPutin ngaxeshanye babona iRussia iba yinxalenye ye-EU. Siyalibala ukuba iRashiya yabuyela ekubeni sisizwe esiphefumlelwe ngamaKristu esanika inkululeko yonqulo kumaSilamsi nakwabanye. Siyalilibala ixesha phantsi koMongameli Boris Yeltsin xa watyhala ngamandla ukususa imiqobo kumalungelo oluntu. Siyayilibala inkqubela eyenziwe phantsi kweGorbachev, Yeltsin, Medvedev kunye noPutin ekunciphiseni indawo yokugcina izixhobo zenyukliya.
Ngabantu baseMelika, baye banciphisa i-stockpiles ukusuka kwi-70,000 ukuya kwi-16,300. Oku kuphelise ugqatso lwe-US-Russian phakathi kweenkqubo ezihlaselayo nezikhuselayo zeqhinga lenyukliya. I-Russia, kunye ne-US isuse zonke iindidi zezixhobo. Basebenze kunye ekukhuseleni izixhobo zenyukliya kunye nezixhobo eRashiya. Babeke imida kwimikhosi emikhulu emileyo eYurophu ngelixa besazisa ukungafihli kunye nokuthembana kwimisebenzi yabo. (Oku kuyawohloka ukusukela ekuphazamisekeni kweRussia eUkraine.) Siyalibala xa uDimitri Medvedev wayengumongameli, wapapasha ngo-2008 isicwangciso esinamacala amaninzi acingisisiweyo sokuphucula ukhuseleko lwaseYurophu. U-Legvold uthi, "I-US neYurophu zayibekela bucala". E-Ukraine, i-US kunye ne-EU ngokuzeyisa zalishiya ilungiselelo lokulalanisa ababelenzile kunye noMongameli uVictor Yanukovych elalinokunqanda isiphithiphithi sezopolitiko. Namhlanje asiyihoyanga into yokuba iRussia izibophelele ekoyiseni i-ISIS ngaphezu kokuba izibophelele ekuxhaseni ulawulo lwaseSyria.
Kunyaka ophelileyo, uRodric Braithwaite, owayesakuba ngunozakuzaku wase-UK eRussia, wabhala kwincwadi yakhe, “Kangangeminyaka elishumi abantu baseNtshona bafundisa eMoscow apho umdla wabo wokwenyani ulele khona, kwaye balindele ukuba ilandele apho iNtshona ikhokelela khona. Babengafane baphulaphule oko kwakuthethwa ngamaRashiya xa ephendula. Iinkxalabo zaseRussia zazibonakala zingabalulekanga, ziphosakele okanye zingamkelekanga”.
Ngaba kufuneka iMfazwe Yomlomo entsha? Ngokuqinisekileyo akunjalo. Ubunkokheli nje obulumkileyo baseNtshona.
