If USA supply cluster bombs to Ukraine, Putin is threatening to use them
as well. Now who is going to blink first and use it first will be
blamed for a catastrophe waiting to happen in Ukraine. And it is the
Ukrainian people who are going to suffer for it.
The argument
that the running out of Western ammunition for Ukraine is the reason why
they have to resort to cluster bombs is as good as saying that after
the cluster bombs are exhausted, using nuclear weapons is next on the
cards. After all, what else is left for them to try to 'change the
game'? Troops on the ground?
What about trying for peace and
putting pressure on Zelenskyy to end his wet dream of retaking Crimea?
It will never happen. Zelenskyy better concentrate on how to defend Kyiv
from the North rather than talking tough about not negotiating until
Russia withdraws completely from Ukraine.
Russia has a new card
to play in the war. Gurkhas are now being inducted into the Russian army
and the whole Russian military is inundated by professional soldiers of
the top calibre - Wagner, Chechens and now Gurkhas. Who is foolish
enough to want to tangle with them? Foreign fighters are now said to be
fleeing Ukraine under extreme pressure from the Russians. Even Ukrainian
soldiers are not spared and are deserting. But the MSM is not saying a
word.

Actually the USA already used cluster bombs in every theatre of conflict over the decades. Others include the UK, Israel, Soviets, Morocco, Saudi Arabia among many others. The biggest culprit is of course the USA. Hundreds of thousands of tons of cluster bombs were dropped in Vietnam alone - 413,130 tons. That translated into several millions of smaller bombs that even spread to Laos, and still killing innocents today.
ReplyDeleteBanning by the UN is actually a useless call, just like nuclear treaties. Where they can get around, they will not follow the UN. The UN is a toothless joke.
