Dont worry man, I'm up to speed on cluster munitions. Again, not the issue here. The issue is your link and headline. They aren't true.
Munitions have nothing to do with it.
The link is perfectly true, and here's Forbes reporting the same thing:
Claiming that UN Secretary-General doesn't speak for UN is some serious mental gymnastics.
Yes? Wtf do you mean? Does UN secretary general asserting his own opinion through a deputy spokesman does not equate to the UN rejecting shit.
Antonio Guterres is the Secretary General of the Secretariat. He does not speak for the UN on policy. Which, is exactly why your quote from Forbes says "Guterres was against the use of cluster munitions" not "UN Rejects". The UN hasn't done shit. They've not made a rejection statement or vote. They've not "condemned" anything.
One dude, through a deputy spokesman, at a morning briefing, said he didn't like it.
lol ok dude
I'm actually amused at how much fun you seem to have doing this despite how bad you are at it.
It's like you read some skiddie guide on trolling and disinformation. You're not even subtle. This is just the most laughable attempt.
Lol, do you feel like you're helping some cause or something? Are you like a secret agent?
