I know this is an exam forum and I don't intend to open a debate on here as everyone will have their own view. For those who may share my own, there is a petition here which I would urge you to sign. I hope the Mods will allow this as I am not including any propaganda, any stuff about why I feel as I do or similar. But as we are about to go to war, I do think everyone should at least think about the implications. Currently has around 70K signatures - needs 100k for it to be considered for a parliamentary debate.

There seems to be an odd logic at play here!

It's OK to bomb Isis in Iraq but not in Syria( a country already in a civil war) :?

It has to be all or none?

You can't fight a war with one hand tied behind one's back.

I just want to add PM statement as those who oppose this vote as “terrorist sympathisers”-deplorable the man's an idiot and his refusal to apologise for making such a inane statement just confirms his stupidity.

Signed and let my MP know but can't help but agree with what you said here Catseye even though we differ on the need to bomb.
