I'm actually really confused. This is the United States we're talking about. They have a military budget greater than, what, the next 10 largest combined? They couldn't figure out how to use a type of weapon that wouldn't cause an international incident and draw condemnation from their closest allies?
yeah, it really is a mystery
like if we really had to send weapons, there are so many more that exist that won't cause unfathomably horrific damage that is so horrific that like nearly half of the fucking world considers them warcrimes
like it's fucking horrid that Russia's using them, but like what the hell is wrong with the US to think "hey, we'll use it too"
(but then again, the US and Russia did refuse to sign the CCM)
