something needs to be done about isis

and decision to help france was inevitable

The French government has taken the highly unusual step of expressing the hope that the Royal Air Force “will soon be working side by side with their French counterparts” in taking military action in Syria

In a sometimes emotional appeal, the French defence minister writes in the Guardian that UK military capabilities would “put additional and extreme pressure on the Isis terror network”.

Jean-Yves Le Drian says he wants the RAF “to take the fight to the very heart of Isis, defeating it and making our countries and peoples safer”.

Saying France was struck at its very heart by Isis, his article amounts to a direct appeal to British MPs not to let the French people down in the wake of the terror attacks in Paris by refusing to join the international military alliance against Isis in Syria.

Is it about Isis though? I used to think it was, now it seems more about bringing down tbe Assad regime.

all the oil that funds Isis has been going to Turkey, but I wonder if the oil is staying in Turkey or going elsewhere ? the Russians have been bombing the truck conveys of oil heading to Turkey
