Cluster bombs should never be deployed. They violate any humane standards of war.
Cluster munitions are illegal under international law. They scatter multiple (often unexploded) bombs over a wide area. Innocent people are still being killed by them in Vietnam 50 years after the war. This is why I am coleading an amendment with @SaraJacobsCA to block their sale.

Absolutely not so simple. The Geneva Convention and international law say otherwise

That's it? You simply object to a particular weapon? So blowing the feet off is bad. Splattering the guts out of everyone, including babies from an entire apartment building, is just peachy. You should be against this entire war

“Humane” standards of war?! Wow. A true Dem.

Former press secretary implied sending cluster bombs would be a war crime. Biden administration stands for nothing other than the violent hegemony of American foreign policy.
