Again, they haven't asked for help (Syria), in Iraq we are supporting with air strikes..

It might affect the economy or whatever, but I still don't see that as a good enough reason to go and inflame the situation a little bit more.

I'm also not sure how us getting involved in a civil war will improve global stability, in fact the previous wars don't seem to have.

So cos they not invading let the rest deal with it even though they can't? I think we should stop on this path as frankly as a person what you are saying is big boggling- thank god your not in the infinity!

Do you realise how much Saudi spend on buying euro fighters and other western military equipment. They have the means if they should want to do something.

There are plenty of countries with the wealth and ability in that region to do something, but they choose not to and we make things worse.

Whilst I concede we should offer support with troops; if not wanted that's fine! That said I still feel offering help is important (ie more than just servalance)

So your saying now they don't want rid of IS?

I'll let your little judgement of me go, but that's ridiculous - war doesn't necessarily solve problems. Especially when they are fighting because you keep bombing them

It's not as simple as going over there, killing a few of them and were sorted, they just regroup and hate the west even more.

Every time we do it they come back with a stronger dislike for us

I'm saying if Saudi thought starting a war with them would get rid of them then they have the means to do so, as do we. Apparently they have a different opinion to you - or they are waiting for something

I agree with you on most points.

However if IS/ISIS/ISIL etc are not stopped they will continue on their path.

At some point we will need to be involved as they have to be stopped.

At some point maybe, but only with complete backing and leading from the (Muslim) gulf states.

My only point is that we cause our own problems by jumping in and backing a side that then turns on us, and causes a whole load of people to hate the west more.

Now if we have the backing of the majority of the region, and it's not the west picking on the Middle East then fine, but until then we need to leave well alone

But how can you leave well alone when they are murdering British citizens?
