The moral quandary of Ukrainian cluster bombs

If these munitions are some sort of last resort, then Ukraine is in a double bind

When the war in Ukraine was only a few months old, Amnesty International published a report condemning what it had found to be the extensive use of cluster munitions in Kharkiv — by Russia. It noted that the weapons were banned by more than 100 countries and said that in Kharkiv they had claimed hundreds of civilian victims. Cue accusations of war crimes and western outrage against Russia’s uncivilized way of war.

I think Joe’s handlers want the two sides in peace talks at the least before the election revs up.
