>What I'm saying is that CBU's are legitimate, legal tools of war, and that Israel shouldn't be criticized for using them. Argue against the death and destruction that war brings - not the individual weapons systems. CBU's are just as deadly as any other unexploded ordnance lying around - people are still being killed and wounded in Europe from WW1 leftovers.

>To single Israel out for using CBU's is a straw man, an effort to make the Israelis look "evil" for using a particular weapon that some non-military organization has decided is bad.

Note that I did not single out Israel. The list of links I posted upstream included also US, NATO and Croatian Serb forces.

From the list of banned weapons - how many of them were banned based on decision of any military organization?
