If you could tell me that no civilians would be hurt/killed and we would stop Daesh then I'd get in a plane myself (well i wouldn't but you know what i mean). Id be behind it 100%
Neither of those things are going to happen.
More innocent people are going to die.
Not just in Syria - lets face it, we are painting a fucking great target on the UK by doing this is. A bigger one than there already is.
There has to be a more intelligent way of doing this, we have intelligence don't we? we have drones? we have troops? Loathe as i am to send our troops in on the ground, it is fairer surely? Civilian casualties can be managed? Bombing is indescriminate and well, i doubt that any leading ISIS figures are in Raqqa just now.
It is futility in its greatest form and going to help no-one.
