I agree with the ban, but it's such a joke. The only three recognized countries in the world (they were also used in a few civil wars over the years, but most rebel forces aren't known for holding to treaties, nor are the forces they fight) that still use cluster bombs (to the best of my knowledge anyway) are Israel, the U.S and the U.K. Of those three, the only one who will even think twice about stopping their use is the U.K, Israel and the U.S are just way too paranoid to give up their edge.
Oh and by the way, calling cluster bombs a "MWD" isn't even close to accurate. "MWD" is a term used to describe nuclear, biological, chemical or radioactive weapons. Cluster bombs fall into none of these categories, so please stop using the term in reference to them.
