When was the last time we had an enemy in uniform, in an organized military unit?

Jesus... our goverment tackling the issues that do not matter.. and flushing down the toilet the the ones that do matter... like WoT, Illegals and so on

[dirtboy]

Yep, they are more worried about cluster bombs used against the enemy than car bombs used on our troops or flying Claymores used against Israeli citizens.

Senators Feinstein and Leahy Call for New Policy on Use of Cluster Bombs

I can think of at least two places to insert one.

[EGPWS]

“The human death toll and injury from these weapons are felt every day.

What's she referring to? Cluster bombs or passenger jets?

[GreyFriar]

Disarm now, Sureender now. Roll out the Burkas for the women,... and if the Dims and other lefties fear a 'evangelic theocracy' running the US how will they feel about a Moslem mullah lead theoracy running the country. first of all all the female dems in the government will be kick out and probably killed if they don't convert to islam

Unexploded cluster bombs fuel anger and resentment

Always ready to make excuses for the 'hate America' crowd.

[Lokibob]

The sheer numbers of CBU;s in the article (2,000,000) is a good indication of how much our military depends and uses them.

The Dems are trying their damndest to emasculate our military.

So, what is different?

[jazusamo]

The amendment was voted down on September 6 by a 70-30 margin. What a waste of time by the moonbat senators.

[RightWhale]

These military experts are right. We should just stick with napalm, WP, and flamethrowers.

[golfisnr1]

We can't possibly let these people run the country.

[FlingWingFlyer]

Another set of handcuffs for our military. With "Senators" like these two buffoons, who needs Islamofascists?

[pierrem15]

The Democratic Party: disarming America since 1972.

[Crazieman]

If cluster bombs are really that "ineffectual" why does our military use them?

I don't buy the failure rate is that high.

[rwilson99]

The bill should be named the terrorist protection act of 2006.

AKA the Iranian Nuclear Development Act

[pierrem15]

Also, IMHO, any such law is clearly unconstitutional.

The Congress cannot use the power of the purse to give specific commands such as ROE's to the troops: this usurps the President's powers as CINC.

[The South Texan]

Leahey and Finstein, they a two of French members of the US Senate. I'm surprised John Kerry didn't co sponsor this too.

[Migraine]

Ah, the never-ending pursuit of kinder, gentler warfare!

Hey, if they're worried about the unexploded ones, they could always hide 'em in their turbans...

[CyberAnt]

I thought this already got defeated within the past 2-3 days ..?? Why is this story resurfacing now ..??

[libstripper]

Senator Feinstein cited Israel’s recent alleged use of cluster bombs in Lebanon as a factor in proposing this amendment.

All of southern Lebanon was and is one giant Hezbo nest. All of the Hezbo combatants are "civilians" because none wear uniforms. The so-called "innocent civilians" are there to provide cover to the combatant "civilians." Using cluster bombs on them is just as legitimate as fire bombing and nuking the Germans and Japanese was during WWII. This proposed amendment rewards subhuman Islamofascist terrorists for willfully violating the Geneva Convention and using human shields.
