The hero, over there in the Ukraine, he always needs more, and this time it’s artillery shells. Critical shortage. <\/p>\n
Old Joe threw up his hands. <\/p>\n
We’re out of those, he said. We gave you all the ancient stock. We gave the MIC billions to make more. But it’s gonna be slow, because we don’t really manufacture much any more. <\/p>\n
In the meantime, what we do have is these cluster bombs. Take them, with our blessing. Go, team.<\/p>\n
Cluster munitions have been banned by half the countries in the world. But not this half. <\/p>\n
The Cambodian Prime Minister, over in the other half, objected. <\/p>\n
He said he still has people dying all the time from previously unexploded cluster bomblets from a whole lifetime ago, when the good guys were fighting a different illegal and immoral war against, uh, ‘communism’. <\/p>\n
Old Joe shrugged. <\/p>\n
They do this with your money.<\/p>\n
They do this in your name. <\/p>\n
They do it to Cambodian kids and they do it to the wrong kind of Ukrainian kids now. <\/p>\n
Eggs cost you ten bucks now. <\/p>\n
Yes, these two things are very much related. <\/p>\n
All of it sucks. <\/p>\n
Sanity is a Christmas bonus granted to good slaves. <\/p>\n
May your day be … nice. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
