      True. But the propaganda line doesn’t acknowledge the distinction, and just tries to spread the idea that the US does not care about international law, which is false.

        Ahhh yes. I had someone run that with landmines too. According to them we can’t get in compliance with international law until we de-mine the Korean DMZ…

          Landmines are also not banned. There’s a lot of subtly misleading bullshit on the internet.

            There is a section on them that most of the world has signed. It’s basically the US, Russia, and China that haven’t signed.

              It’s a little more complicated than that, because there are many different kinds of landmines. Nobody bans them all.
