All we’ve given the Ukrainians is a cluster F*ck after another.

Yes…that was in the time when the world lived under threat of nuclear annihilation.

Something we best remember.

Did you ever wonder what happened to the Code Pink freaks? Back in the day, they’d be all over something like this. Wonder what ever happened to them?

Yep. I’ll bet they banned them because they don’t have them and/or a method for delivery against their population.

Spreading unexploded bomblets isn’t a problem as long as you’re a libtard

Fake libtard peace groups go dormant every time a libtard takes office and start exporting global wars

They’ll crawl out the next time a republican nails a terrorist and claim bloody murder

Kool - since you like them so much, hope one of your family members steps on one, like my buddy did and blew the front his foot right off. Peices of his foot hit the dude (another buddy) in front of me.

It was one of OURs. They can”t be cleaned up - and you’re a moronic d-bag.

And you’ll notice it can be dropped by a small aircraft like an A10.

Pretty stupid move. It give the Russians a green light to use the same in return.

Doesn't Russia control the air over Ukraine?

No, they don't.

I have read enough of your posts to know that you avoid learning and being well-informed on these sorts of topics.

LOL, that's really funny coming from a guy who repeats every Russian talking point and denies that any other source of information might be correct.

The Russians actually have launched missiles with cluster warheads, and they have struck civilian targets with them, even if it something the Russian MOD is trying to cover up.

They need cohesive trained combat formations.

They have them. Battle hardened teams who are executing difficult combined arms attacks on Russian positions.

So they do not care about littering the area with grenade sized bomblets.

The Russians have already left land mines, booby traps, and unexploded ordnance all over Ukraine. The Russians have been laying down remotely delivered anti-personnel mines since the start of the war.

Even before this most recent phase of the Russian war against Ukraine most of the civilian deaths and injuries in the Donbass area were from mines and other UXO.

Adding a few more bomblets won't make a difference.

The issue is not the Russian use of cluster munitions against military targets, it was their indiscriminate use of cluster weapons and other munitions on civilians.

Which Ukraine will do likewise. 2 wrongs do make a right!

Sounds like Biden logic.

I have read enough of your posts to know that you're full of squeeze.

I don't read the New York Times or the Washington Post because they're full of squeeze.

Don't feel like you're left out because I don't read your squeeze. You're in bad company.
