Well I know what I would do but I can't see Cameron giving the "Spook" dirty trick department a free hand to do it.

There is nothing compassionless about vermin clearance as a self defence measure. Cameron is tasked with the defence of the realm, he is not fulfilling that duty. |

Well you implied that you were ok with nuking Syria with women and children still in it as they might be terrorists. You almost make Dave sound sane. |

But he is doing his level best despite the protestations of the do gooders....or if you like in "Dave's" own words, terrorist sympathisers, perhaps now people can see why he did not apologise for his choice of words. |

Given that Isil (or whatever they are called these days) is the most reactionary bunch of insane nut-jobs on the face of the earth, I am still trying to work out how bombing them is going to make us MORE safe. 'Cos that's what Dave has told us. Don't you agree that it might just have the opposite effect? |

With IS/ISIL/ISIS/Daesh self financing terror cells already in Europe including Britain as far as I can see if Syria were to be nuked to a radioactive wasteland it would not make Britain safe. |

Let us not forget that the security services have already foiled 7 terrorist attacks on the UK so far this year and that is without bombing Syria, so in answer to your post it will not place us in any more danger than we are already in and hopefully with strategic targetting of bombs we can help to degrade the means to fund Daesh's ability to project their terror abroad. Leastways, that is how I read the words that come from politicians and military personnel. |

Indeed. And it's so so much harder to deal with homegrown radicals isn't it. The govt want easy solutions that are politically expedient, tackling things head on and making positive changes to our country is an alien concept to these tw@s. Edited by skwirked, Dec 3 2015, 04:46 PM.

Bombing will not make us absolutely safe as those that wish to do us harm here in the UK are probably already plotting. But allowing these ISIL monsters to believe the same air as the rest of humanity is not acceptable and seeking to appease will only encourage. It is right and proper if the RAF in support of Iraq is chasing ISIL convoys towards the border then they should, if possible, continue across the border to vaporise them. No war against ISIL will be won from the air, it requires boots, but well targeted RAF strikes can demoralise and make the job simpler for ground troops. Ground troops formed from Muslim feet in boots I hope. Britain as a nation, one under threat, cannot simply stand idly by and expect others to clean out the rat's nest. We are not a nation of lilly livered appeasers. All that said the battle with ISIL will be on many fronts and the most difficult one will be here on our own turf. Anyone thinking this is a black and white situation where it is clear the course in the war against these monsters is obvious, is dreaming, it will evolve and best we are prepared and have resolve. I get the impression that many fear attacking ISIL lest the threat on home turf escalates. It might. It might also if we do not attack. I really do not believe that if the UK said nay it would have made one iota of difference, our card is already marked. |

Personally I dont have objections to the RAF bombing ISIS convoys or oil installations in Syria but they wont just be doing that will they? Soon we will be seeing innocent casualties on the TV and in the media. This will simply give ISIS or other anti West groups more recruits. |

You need to give the logic a rest for a couple of weeks, the "ruthless toothless" (I like that phrase) currently have hard ons and are impervious to bland statements of fact for the time being. My betting is we'll not see to many mangled civilians in the mainstream media, you'll find those off the beaten track. |

It's hardly "spin" is it? Unless you think we don't kill civilians, or more likely we apologise when we do so it's ok really? Try explaining that to the average ME nutter. |

Well apparently since we started airstrikes on isis in Iraq there hasn't been a single civvie casualty, if done carefully I'm sure risk of that can be kept to a bare minimum. The US and others don't appear to be so carefull ,doesn't mean we can't be. |

Well if the "allies" want to do the job properly it's going to be boots on the ground isn't it? Billy Vague suggested that yesterday, and I personally agree but will anyone who really matters like Assad, Iran or even Russia? Once ISIS retreats to urban areas, and they will, we will start killing civilians as well as the intended targets, that is just a fact of war, and as for Cameron saying it could take up to three years? How does he know this? The first mass grave of collateral damage will see the flag waving cease, blokes on foot need to get the job done but our politicians dare not mention this. |

Agreed. It is gesture politics of the lowest order, happily risking innocent lives so 4 decrepit Panavia Tornadoes can let loose a few million pounds worth of ordnance in the desert and have defence contractors profit by resupplying them. |

Of course what many of us forget is the shelf life for much of the Ordnance is around 14 years. I wonder if it is coincidence that the two gulf wars and now the bombing in Syria falls in with that time-span In other words use it or scrap it.. |

This is extremely relevant! Much of what we, and I do include myself, believe is formed from what we are informed of ........ the media play a huge role in that (still), and can make everything appear to be going as planned, as told, when it likely does not. British Muslims have a different source of information (no less unreliable), and will form their understandings from a very biased standpoint. Most will read that last sentence and consider Muslims fools for believing it, the 'lies' told ..... not realising that they too as foolish for believing our press/tv reports. |

You have evidence that Cameron has personal friends who are making a killing from producing these weapons do you? If so name just one and show the size of the killing. To me your claim sounds like unsubstantiated claptrap and I wish you would for once attempt to substantiate. As for vermin clearance I understand from our local Rat Catcher that it is best to exterminate the lot of them, because if you leave a pocket here or there then soon you will be overrun again. There will be collateral damage, yes innocents will be killed by our bombs as ISIL will make sure of that. But it is the old numbers game again, how many can you tolerate in vaporising that nest of vipers? One, none, tens, hundreds or thousands? |

You do know Jonsky that our arms supply affordability depends on the suppliers having export contracts and that this and previous governments have promoted all UK products military and non military? In fact the arms industry is the one that governments intervene in most TO PREVENT the likes of arms supplier BAE making profits But hey ho that's only facts. |
