On Friday, campaigners decided to draw more attention to the United States, described by the newsletter as an “elephant not in the room” at these negotiations to create the cluster bomb ban treaty. I headed over to the US embassy in Dublin around midday with a small, but vocal group including several “US citizens against US cluster bomb policy.” The Iraqi cluster bomb survivors also came, including Ahmed Najem who lost his arm.  Nobel Peace Laureate Jody Williams did a bunch of media on the United States with articles in the Boston Globe and Reuters.
