Bushoviks to investigate Israeli use of cluster bombs
Because when we give fancy weapons tech to our allies, they have to follow the directions on the label. It seems that this was not the case in Lebanon, again. The NY Times has the story along with a pretty good appraisal of the consequences for Israel.
Several current and former officials said that they doubted the investigation would lead to sanctions against Israel but that the decision to proceed with it might be intended to help the Bush administration ease criticism from Arab governments and commentators over its support of Israel’s military operations. The investigation has not been publicly announced; the State Department confirmed it in response to questions.So like all things associated with Our Dear Embattled Leader, it will be all talk and no walk. But at least they will put on a show for the wogs.
