After saturating southern Lebanon, Israeli troops advanced to the Litani last summer. How many casualties did Israel have from "mines" during that advance. Chances are that some of those "mines" were cluster munitions.

Were your troops given leaflets warning of the bomblets? Does that make it OK if they were hurt, too?

All the US is doing is imposing a restriction that the munitions we sell you be made to IMI standards.
