Why is this important?
Not only is bombing a country wrong on moral grounds surely we are doing exactly what ISIS / ISIL want?
Not only would we be killing thousands of innocent people but air strikes would also promote division between the West and ISIS / ISIL supporters.
ISIS / ISIL WANT a holy war. Bombing Syria is leading to a holy war in their eyes. Air strikes will only create more martyrs and increase terrorist acts by ISIS / ISIL.
Surely this is obvious?
