its a very idea indeed!

did you know in the rules of war your also not allowed to fire rockets that have a range of more that 90 miles?

now, the whole point of war is to be as far away from the danger as possible

YOU ARE IDIOTS!!!! Sorry fellas it had to be said!

If you have ever been and seen the devastation that they cause, way after the 'war' had finished you would understand what I mean. Simply there is no need for them in modern warfare only the fuckwit countries continue to use them.

What like grenades, shells, depth charges, warheads, missiles and land mines?


An explosive is an explosive, Its designed to do one thing, and thats what they do.

But that wasn't my point, I couldn't give to monkeys what mess they make, My point was that he can ban a weapon, But he can't get our men out of Iraq and alike.

Lovely, Nice to know he's looking after the UK yet again.


So I'm not the "IDIOT!!!!"

they will never sign the landmine treaties as they're the only effective weapon they have to defend the 38th parallel. don't really think they want north korea to launch an attack just to get some good PR.

Currently, there are more than 100-million landmines located in 70 countries around the world, according to OneWorld International. Since 1975, landmines have killed or maimed more than 1-million people, which has led to a worldwide effort to ban further landmine use and clear away existing landmines. In this article, we will look at the different types of landmines, their basic operation and the techniques used to clear mine fields

how they work

The current crop of cluster bombs have a timer so they detonate anyway if they have not found a target, but with smart weapons there is no need for them, SO LONG AS THE YANKS ARE NOT FIRING THE SMART WEAPONS!!
As for rules of war ?, the point of war is when it happens generally people don't give a shit about any rules.

what you will find is that we will have to agree not to use them, but the peole who we will be "fighting" won't give a shit and will use them regardless

and it's not like we are going to say "play fair or we won't play at all" cunty is just going to say "yes mr president,you can use all my troops to figure out a way of minimising your casualty rates to make you look good"
