“On a positive note, if there is such a thing with dems, is that some of the “top Dems” have some degree of sanity knowing cluster bombs will be nothing but a cluster-F, and do nothing to end the war.”
I agree, but there may be another advantage for these “top” ‘Rats. If the administration does provoke a full scale war with Russia, and Joe somehow manages to lose, the losers will face war crimes trials. How happy they will be to tell the judges at the Hague that they were against sending illegal weapons.
They aren't illegal. Some nations shun them, not all.
It is an excellent weapon.
