CLUSTER BOMBS OK

A UN demining expert comments on the use of cluster munitions:
“It’s not illegal to use (cluster bombs) against soldiers or your enemy, but according to Geneva Conventions it’s illegal to use them in civilian areas.”
Noam Chomsky justifies Israel's "widespread" use of cluster munitions in Lebanon:
But Hizbullah is so deeply embedded in society that it cannot be eradicated without destroying much of Lebanon as well.
Go Noam.

Update: Chomsky's article is no longer available at the Guardian. Go here instead.
