Video: 100,000 Unexploded Cluster Bombs Haunt Lebanon
These are the facts - 100,000 unexploded cluster bomblets. A much higher proportion than usual given the number of bombs and shell casings used. The bomblets are essentially large powerful grenades used solely for anti-personal purposes.   The bomblets were primarily dispersed over civilian areas.  Ninety percent of the bomblets were dispersed during the last three days - just 72 hours - before the cease fire was announced.

The effect is to make the civilian areas of south Lebanon extremely dangerous for civilians to return to, especially children.  The unexploded bomblets are much less effective against military personal that are skilled and trained in dealing with such ordnance.  Military personal also do not need to work, live or play in the effected areas and will be less exposed to the danger.

Obviously only one conclusion can be drawn from these facts.  The Israeli government wanted to depopulate southern Lebanon.  As to why.... there are several tactical and strategic reasons to do so.

The Lebanese civilians will return to their homes anyway, they always have and they always will. Many of the Lebanese will be maimed, some of them will die, alot of them will be children.

These are the facts.

It appears the actual figures of dispersed bomblets after the UN's most recent count works out to between two to three million. See the article "What We Did Was Insane and Monstrous"
