[Peace-discuss] the broken chair sculpture in Geneva, to stand in opposition of land mines and cluster bombs

[Karen Medina]

I just learned of an interesting sculpture in Geneva. A broken chair
-- put up by Handicap International to symbolize opposition to land
mines and cluster bombs. The monument acts as a reminder to
politicians and others visiting Geneva.

The 12 meter chair is in of support an international treaty on a ban
on Cluster Bombs (Convention on Cluster Munitions), which was signed
in Oslo in December 2008.
