The latest news that the band of murderers (ISIS) is hell bent on massacring any religious minorities it comes across, mainly Christian and Yazidis, with no apparent international will or way of stopping them, defies belief.

Our politicians are usually quick on the draw with these kinds of things, but not this time. I wonder why?

Then I found this: Could Saudi Arabia fall to ISIS? Scary, what?

Religions, Christian and others, have, at various times been guilty of cruelty and persecutions.

Maybe the world would be a better place without them?

It'll be argued that the British Public has no appetite for war. However, I think there are instances when we need to get involved at a military level as well as a humanitarian one, and IMO this is one of them.

There is also the Palestinian question. If we get militarily involved in Iraq, why not Gaza?

Well, unlike the warmongering Hamas, who were quick to restart their conflict with Israel today (a fact that the Biased Broadcasting Corporation studiously ignored in their TV News), these refugees in northern Iraq have no means of defending themselves from genocide.

I do so agree! xx

Heartbreaking ! How long I wonder before we have the same problem here. Maybe not in my life time but I for one can see the day will come.
Too right that America should get involved, they started the damned skirmishes and war in Iraq along with B'liar the puppet who should be behind bars.
His Massive portfolio should be frozen as he faces justice. £50,000 plus spent on "Lady" B'liars birthday bash, when there are thousands of Christians and Iraqi's fleeing, the killing of innocent women and children, homeless starving no water, no medicines as in Gaza, terrified as Isis and Hamas takes its toll.
Interesting reading WM. Tony B'Liar Peace a Envoy? Iraq, Afghanistan,Palestine. Libya. What a charlatan.

I don't like the way things are looking regarding this matter.

The sooner it is faced up to and sorted out the better.

Whose stupid idea was it to reduce our military strength?

The latest news is that the barbarians have executed, and/or buried alive, some 500 Kurds, and taken 300 women as slaves. A further 50 -150,000 Iraqis have taken to the mountains and are facing starvation and dehydration.

What do we do? We send ready-meals, water and solar lamps capable of charging mobile phones. That's all very well, but what we are not doing is offering them protection.

This is interesting. I've been offline most of the weekend. The Kurdish territories are neither weak, poor or unprotected. We may now see some action on this.

The west won't do anything without a full governmental request, signed by all parties. The PM will never do that as he's Sunni and represents the Sunni. 100,000 Iraqi dead and they're not going there again without a platinum signed invite. Worst case is they will let it all fall apart, let the UN wring it's hands, let ISIS take over, then blitz them all over again.

The West is not interested in another Afghanistan. But they will fight a war if they need to....

The policy of the West in the middle east - can anyone understand it?

We depose Gaddafi in Libya - result, chaos.
We depose Saddam Hussein in Iraq - result, chaos.

We don't depose Assad in Syria - and that charlatan Tony Blair says the reason things are so bad now in the mid-east is because we didn't!!!!

How would deposing Assad in Syria have worked out any different from Libya and Iraq? It wouldn't.

ISIS have flourished because we deposed people who had kept order in their country, no matter how.

But because of this, do we owe a duty to the people of Iraq, who are now suffering under ISIS?

Morally? Probably
