I recall during the 2006 Israel-Hezbollah war how emergency stocks of ammunition was flown into Israel by US cargo planes ; and that Israeli specifically asked for the older version of MLRS cluster rockets as they proceeded to cover southern Lebanon grid by grid, per statement of Israeli artillery officer.
Tl;Dr, it is abundantly obvious that Ukraine will get tomahawks and more. The rationalizations must continue apace.
Of course, Tomahawks are not the end game, rather, it is the sunk cost fallacy (and Russian timidity) that will be used to mousetrap the Americans into war.
This got me curious on the efforts to ban them- found out that China isn’t a signatory to the Convention on Cluster Munitions, but did vote in favor of the 2021 resolution to implement it and urge all nations to. Why wouldn’t they just abstain from the vote- do they just not want to be the *first* superpower to back down from CMs?
Next up. The tomahoax, to be followed by rotten tomatoes

Anyone pointing out the immorality of THAT weapon as opposed to others isn’t to be taken seriously.
Nor did they mean it in the test, like all moralizers they’re just Ladies negotiating the price.
As noted it did help stave off defeat.
I don’t support the Ukraine war BTW, but this is nonsense.
