During those first 17 years of the 20 that you're now conclusively citing, Sodom was the guy responsible 100% for ANY sort of unexploded munitions.
That leaves 3 years during which he'd been in hiding, in custody and finally had his neck stretched.
And if you were a part of the 'normal' educated society which he (and his fukkwit sons) used to his perverse ends, capturing and torturing entire families....torturing his 'football' players for failure to perform....then 'safe' better OBVIOUSLY be seen as a relative term. Oh? You don't see that?
MOVE to fucking Singapore then. See how it feels to be 'safe', subjugated to fear.
Self-satisfied fucking bullshit.

Someone said he dropped them? Consider his aggressive tendencies begged for someone else to try to defend THEMselves.
By engaging Iran in their long war, he definitely bears a large part of the responsibility for the variety of unexploded bombs now endangering his so beloved countrymen...
Well, he would bear responsibility if he weren't so...well, so dead at the moment.
Report card on subject 'shin' - capable of following step 'A' to step 'B' but needs work on the apparently tortuous concept of 'A' to 'B' THEN to 'C'.....

Report card on subject 'shin' - capable of following step 'A' to step 'B' but needs work on the apparently tortuous concept of 'A' to 'B' THEN to 'C'..... Ok then, how about, at what point was Iran dropping cluster bombs in Iraq? Iran never dropped cluster bombs on Iraq, either. Here's your homework for today, read it carefully because there's going to be a test on this later: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iraq_Iran_WarSee? They used infantry attacks, mostly along the borders. You know, the "human wave attacks"? The only time they bombed Iraq was with Scud missiles for a very brief period. You're suggesting there have been 40 foot Scuds laying around in Iraq for upward of 20 years now? I'm pretty sure those are called "duds", and that they've been cleaned up by now. So yeah, you wanna run that A-B-C lineage by me again, Perfesser, what with the US dropping, oh, I dunno, about 98% of all bombs EVER dropped on that country in the last 20+ years? And maybe you'd also like to repeat the "Iran was DEFENDING themselves and ANY attack on the US Iraqi aggressors was the fault of the attacking leader!" in a couple of months when WE invade Tehran, mmmmyes? But then something tells me you'll be defending OUR Stalinist strongman from any "responsibility", and not da po' ol' Iwanians whom you wuve so much.

Phil: Iraq is virtually littered with bombs. Mainly cluster bombs that failed to "explode". After two decades of war and fighting, there are more than a million tons of live munitions lying around the country.
Iraq sure is a safer place now that Saddam is gone ... !!
A million tons of cluster bombs, right? 'Mostly' or 'MAINLY', I thought I read. Not twenty years either, but just the past US-sponsored 3, seeing that shin has done us ME the favor of clearing up the fact that any other warlike bomb-dropping which occurred in Iraq (leading to this million ton figure of Phil's) consisted of Scuds which 'are called "duds", and that they've been cleaned up by now.
Just curious....so this 'more than a million tons of live munitions lying around the country' are all (or 'mainly') US and Brit cluster bombs?
And all the the Scuds are gone, hmmm.
'Million tons' and unexploded just sounded so ridiculously overstated that I WRONGLY presumed that the Iran-Iraq war had something to do with it.
No Iranian air force to speak of, in those post-Shah times...no Migs?
No, I did not read the Wikipedia entry.
I'm still looking for that 'million tons' figure elsewhere and haven't found it yet...you will get back to me that, won't you, shin?

What a mess. According to the text in the article, Russian, Chinese, and South African made. Most of ours go "pop." It's not clear how many of those pictured are Iraqi caches versus how many were deployed offensively. A lot of the munitions are mines. That's been an age-old problem.
