I don't really understand why the US is even considering giving Ukraine cluster bombs. They are banned in a lot of countries for a reason and Russia was rightly criticized for using them.
Think of the poor cluster bomb manufacturers. How will they maximize shareholder value if nobody uses their widely banned weapons that mostly kill civilians?
Oh really, which manufacturer do you think is benefitting? Nobody makes cluster bombs in the US by the way.
Also, these cluster bombs mostly kill civilians? Would love to see proof of that.
Who pays you to post disinformation, the CCP or Kremlin?
Holy shit please use this new service called google. you can look things up and learn about history there.
