1. Are you thinking about her vote on cluster bombs?
I don't know of any vote of hers on land mines.

2. Technically it was a vote to ban cluster bombs
but unexploded bomblets effectively become land mines, waiting for someone to come along and step on them.

4. The gift that keeps on giving.
Some varieties of cluster bomblets are painted bright colors and look like toys, so kids pick them up and have them blow up in their faces.

Thank you Hillary!

5. Princess Di- really had a heart for those who suffer from this stupidity-
there is no excuse for the manufacture and use of these things.

:nuke:

SHAME indeed Hillary.

peace~
