US cluster bombs found in Lebanon

According to the Independent parts from US made cluster bombs have been found in Lebanon and pressure is increasing on the US to ban their export to Israel. I'll believe that when it happens. The US state department is reported to be investigating their use. Any guesses on the outcome?

The last attempt in the US Senate to restrict the use of cluster bombs in the Senate ended in failure.

The UN humanitarian coordinator has condemned Israeli overuse of the weapons. And we all know that Israel always responds to UN suggestions.
