So sorry, old bean, but like 142 other countries (including Russia, China, and the DPRK) the US isn't a party to the Ottawa Treaty.
Speaking, however, as one who has seen the damage anti-personnel mines can do I must say I'm against them.
Speaking as a former Infantryman, I'm all for anything that gives me an edge up on people who are trying to kill me. This includes land mines, napalm, flame throwers, fougasse, claymore mines, punji stakes, poison gas, flechette rounds, drangon's breath, and lots of other stuff. I'm even in favor of our side using halitosis and not using deodorant if it helps.
