Like I said before, seeing it with your own eyes is a biased news source and you should never trust it. I pity Robert Fisk for trying to use that lowest of all sources, and for staying in Belgrade during most of the bombing in 1999, knowing in advance that he'll only produce biased results.

What his source in the field were wrong about is that it's only dangerous in the vicinity. It's not - these are nano-sized particles, which get lodged into your cells and cause various interesting kinds of cancer. My city wasn't bombed; the nearest it got was one hit on the railroad and few dozen pigs shattered when a cluster bomb hit the pen - about a dozen miles out of town. And one empty fuel tank fell near a gas station (sorry, we don't serve kerosene). Yet I knew/know some people who already died or have cancer.

I know that you didn't push the button, but.

Just don't expect me to agree to having one country's military anything (people, weapons, vehicles, anything) in another country, no matter the excuse.
