Cluster Bombs, the gift that keeps on giving "A HAILSTORM has caused hundreds of cluster bombs to explode in south Lebanon, the National News Agency said. The cluster bombs were dropped by Israel during its war with Hezbollah guerrillas last year. The hailstones, as big as walnuts, fell in a number of valleys in south Lebanon, the agency said. When cluster bombs burst, they spread bomblets over the ground and vegetation. Air- or ground-launched, the bombs often fail to explode on impact. Cluster bombs have killed 30 people since the war. Dozens more have been wounded. " marvelous. Sometimes you just have to sit back and admire the ingenuity of man.

linkBush administration officials warned Israel to avoid civilian casualties, but they have lodged no public protests against its use of cluster weapons. American officials say it has not been not clear whether the weapons, which are also employed by the United States military, were being used against civilian areas and had been supplied by the United States. Israel also makes its own types of cluster weapons. But a report released Wednesday by the United Nations Mine Action Coordination Center, which has personnel in Lebanon searching for unexploded ordnance, said it had found unexploded bomblets, including hundreds of American types, in 249 locations south of the Litani River. The report said American munitions found included 559 M-42’s, an anti-personnel bomblet used in 105-millimeter artillery shells; 663 M-77’s, a submunition found in M-26 rockets; and 5 BLU-63’s...

Ya ever try making an IED with one hand? If the builder is angry enough and determined enough, I'm sure it could be done. Probably has been done. Surely will be done again.
