Legacy of a failed war: One million cluster bombs.

Unread postby Zardoz » Mon 02 Oct 2006, 09:32:10

Anybody who talks of "peace" or "resolution" or "compromise" is delusional:

Up to a million cluster bomblets discharged by Israel in its conflict with Hezbollah remain unexploded in southern Lebanon, the UN has said.

It will never end. The hatred will never be overcome. All parties will trade atrocities forever.

I think all the serious players already understand this... The talk of "peace" is just for the sheep who can't see the big picture and need to be comforted in order to go about their daily routine.

And to think Hezb and Hamas indulge fantasies of playing on the same field of terrorism as a state that can essentially litter an entire nation with a million explosive charges.

The Israelis do need to start making their own cluster munitions though... Westerners are getting a bit touchy about the things; though I'm having a hard time thinking of any presidential hopeful that would refuse to sell the things to Israel upon request.
