 Biden to Ukraine: “Watch your kids lose their arms and legs to our cluster bombs”

President Biden’s decision to send cluster bombs to Ukraine to shore up their failing counteroffensive is despicable. The US condemned Russia for using cluster bombs there but has no qualms about leaving. thousands of its own unexploded bomblets to surprise little tykes who find them during and long after the war

The US and 7 other NATO countries refuse to join 123 countries that adhere to the 2008 Convention On Cluster Munitions which prohibits the use, production, stockpiling and transfer of cluster munitions and requires states to ensure they claim no further victims.

Congress prohibits their use but Cluster Bomb Joe has a murderous loophole. He can declare that any national security emergency allows him to transfer cluster bombs from US stockpiles. The Russo Ukraine war, over 5,000 miles from the Homeland, is nowhere close to US security interests…unless you count backing the losing side in our proxy war against Russia an existential threat. We have no need to make and stockpile such deplorable weapons in the first place.

President Biden is a half century long proponent of perpetual war to maintain US unipolar dominance over the world. He’s in denial our days as world dominator are approaching Sayonara. Dipping into the cluster bomb bucket to maim Ukrainian kids long after Ukraine is destroyed trying to hang on to Crimea and Donbas, and join NATO to put nukes on Russia’s border, is a sad gasp of a desperate president.
