It’s a war crime. But that’s OK. War crimes are perfectly alright sometimes. [/s]

It’s a war crime

No, those measures were adopted only by nations without air power. Using cluster munitions never became international law, merely international "I sure wish".

It is perfectly okay when we do it.

I borrowed that from Paul Joseph Watson.

“”””It’s a war crime. “”””

Cluster bomb use is not a war crime, but Russia has been committing war crimes in Ukraine using its masses of cluster bombs by deliberately using them against civilians.

Is using them a war crime?
The use of cluster bombs itself does not violate international law, but using them against civilians can be a violation. As in any strike, determining a war crime requires looking at whether the target was legitimate and if precautions were taken to avoid civilian casualties.

“The part of international law where this starts playing [a role], though, is indiscriminate attacks targeting civilians,” Human Rights Watch’s associate arms director Mark Hiznay told The Associated Press news agency. “So that’s not necessarily related to the weapons, but the way the weapons are used.”

Yeah....Johnson had many fooled, during Brexit. He’s turned out to be yet another bought and paid for WEF/NWO hack.

LBJs involvement in Vietnam was a war crime, No Declaration of war. GWBs war in the Gulf was a war crime, no declaration of war. Biden’s involvement in Ukraine is now a war crime. Only the winner will be able to try the other side for war crimes. We shal see.
