No, not until we sort who are funding IS by buying their oil and supplying their weapons, if they couldn't do either they wouldn't be able to function
There are nurses working for western aid agencies in Isis territories?
I have added some comments to your comment above.
The border is arbitrary but increasing bombing will make the situation worse.
Drone attacks against small specific targets are not the same as full scale bombing.
We can help them, just not be making the situation worse.
It’s true, and I wouldn’t suggest doing nothing so terrorism wouldn’t win
I know, I don’t think ignoring them is a good idea.
I am not saying to not confront the issue, just there is a more effective method available.
.
Dropping nuclear bombs would restrict their ability, but that wouldn’t be a plus.
Then there will be more, and then more and then more.
Insanity: doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different result
Do they and if they do that doesn’t mean it is necessarily a good idea.

Very much this - the Kurds are actually fighting ISIS on the ground, and it is outrageous that the Turkish government (and the Russians, I believe) are, at best, hindering them.
YES maybe not in the stronhold territories but the point I was making was. Would Politicians vote to bomb Syria if they had a son or daughter working or living there in any capacity and the answer would almost certainly be NO
Your faith in the RAF and it's targeting policy is disappointing. How many civilians have they killed in Iraq when targeting ISIS?
Fair enough what should we do?
Silly point made to avoid mine.
No our action will make little if no difference to their numbers IMO
Each conflict is different it is convenient and lazy to extrapolate one failure to all similar situations.
Yes they do, true but it gives democratic legitimacy.
Fair enough - I wasn't sure what the Russians were up to exactly. I knew they were attacking some other groups as well as ISIS - if it's not the Kurds, that's good. Time the Kurds were given a home to home rule themselves in, IMHO. And Turkey (and other nations in that region who'd lose a bit of territory as a result) can lump it!Russia support the Kurds and there was talk yesterday of providing arms. Turkey are bombin the Kurds and are using the fight against ISIS as a cover for wiping out their enemy. Russia want to (have?) give the Kurds SAMs, something Turkey will hate.
I'd be interested to see the basis for suggesting that the majority of the public back bombing Syria.
I don't know, arguably one is too many, although I suspect the number is in the thousands.
Take measures to stop ISIS being able to sell oil and stop them receiving arms, which may well be the same ones we have sold Saudi Arabia.
Of course its silly, it was meant to be to highlight the absurdity of yours as a justification for bombing!
The failure is a fundamental consequence of this type of action, its neither lazy or convenient.
