Priapic Clusters

I hear that the excessively priapic among us are getting sore over the subject of the use of cluster munitions in Ukraine.

Cluster munitions have been used by Russians to terrorize peaceful cities and heavily residential areas since February of 2022.

Here’s my native city of Kharkiv:

They are used constantly by Russians to destroy Ukrainian civilians in the Donbass. And I hear that Russians really loved using them in Aleppo but nobody gives a crap about Syrians, so that’s fine, I guess.

It’s really cute how some people have decided that cluster munitions are bad now that Ukraine might use them to kill Russian occupiers in the trenches. These same people had zero objections when Russians used them on different continents to murder civilians. And these same people will pout endlessly about the double standard they experience.

This is just Kharkiv, mind you.

    Exactly. The risk is unexploded ordinance but they have so much around that there was a national competition in Ukraine where kids made PSAs on how to recognize ordinance and what to do if you find it. Clearly the issue will not be introduced by giving Ukraine some of their own to use.

      All of a sudden everybody is oh so worried about how dangerous this will be for Ukraine. The hypocrisy is off the charts.

      Probably the same place as the 68% of the weapons Russians are currently using, sold to them by US companies. People don’t know this, but US manufacturers easily bypass sanctions. Nobody is trying to stop them because… Well, it’s obvious.

        So the hypocrisy is even more blatant.

          It’s more than that. The US don’t want Russia to lose the war because there’s this fantasy that things can go back to what they used to be. World leaders suffer from intellectual and executive impotence. They don’t want to do the job for which we, the people, are paying them. They are trying to weasel out of having to make decisions and carry them out. And we aren’t holding them accountable.

    I haven’t seen anybody of significance come out against cluster munitions to Ukraine. Peace orgs don’t count as significant nor important.
