Senator Lugar, whose major support comes from Christian zionists, has a cover of visiting former Iron Curtain countries where his picture is taken beside old military equipment, as if he were really anti-war.
But, Senator Lugar, what about the cluster bomb manufacturing facilities within a few hours drive of your office?Cluster bomblets are packed by the hundreds, into artillery shells, bombs, and missiles, which scatter them over vast areas when deployed. Some fail to explode immediately. The unexploded bomblets then lie dormant, possibly for years, until they are disturbed, often by children attracted by their small size and bright colors, with tragic results.
Senator Lugar has supported nearly every criminal action taken by the Bush War Criminal Cabal, yet still is re-elected. Do the voters of Indiana really OK the mass killings of men, women and children? Do Indiana Republicans support the use of cluster bombs? Or are they all merely misinformed?
(By the way, don't get your hopes up by Obama, folks. This non-citizen president has been bought and paid for by the Military Industrial Complex and a full coterie of trans-national corporations. He has $1.2 billion in his campaign chest - all, of course, donated by small contributors ... Duh!)
One hundred ninety-two countries have signed the treaty banning use of cluster bombs, but not the "Land of the Free" and home of the bomb maker. Why not?
