    These are not cluster munitions which are indeed designed to harm as many civilians as possible (one of the favorite tools of the US by the way).

    They are missiles which release multiple warheads near the end of their journey, each of which homes in on a separate target, they don’t just explode shrapnel in all directions like cluster bombs do.

      Yeah I just saw that a few hours ago, I was under the impression it was just speculative until I heard that., but they’re claiming a salvo of these hits thousands of targets. Could this potentially be a mistranslation where “targets” is doing too much work? People could have read too much into a paraphrasing and rushed to “debunk” with inaccurate information. At this point all the feeds are contaminated with fake information, just a lot less from the smartypants aside from the ultra 100% based news feed and the people who survived the culling from Gabriel Rockhill’s new book pissing the remaining leftoids off. They’re not immune unless they are Marxist supersoldiers.

      Let’s be completely serious. The engine that runs this account is a group of neurons that have hardly adapted since they were used to argue about DOTA 2. I have never made a single claim of expertise other than “I read a lot about weapons now because I am jealous of how much exmilitary guys know about it, and I deserve their knowledge without attribution since I am less chuddy than them” (paraphrasing). I want the Israelis to be mercilessly cluster bombed in an emotional comeuppance way because I am full of evil burger thoughts, I associate power with a global campaign of terror, when I hear stuff that reinforces that they are suffering for their wrongdoing I don’t question it. So, if this is an Israeli psyop that is how it worked on me.

      Open source OSINT account as in I tell you how I am programmed.

        Could you maybe post some details on this? Everything online is a mess right now and there are lots of corrections on this. I am inclined to believe the supergenius women in the Iranian missile program have invented a Mother Bomb. Are you anti-woman?

          There’s a recent video on the bomblets by some journalist next to a downed missile. While they have stabilization fins, there don’t seem to be any motor controls to guide them. Can’t find the video quickly though but it’s from some Western media outlet.
