We have a new ally in the fight against Daesh
Now that the Prime Minister of England knows his Scottish behind is safe, he has rallied the Parliament to join in the coalition against Daesh.
British lawmakers voted on Friday to join the U.S.-led coalition of nations launching airstrikes on the Islamic State in Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) in Iraq, committing warplanes to the struggle against the armed group.With all these friends, Daesh will be trampled, sooner or later.
Prime Minister David Cameron described the moves as critical to national security, arguing that facing down the Al-Qaeda splinter group has become a matter of urgency.
He made a passionate plea that spelled out the consequences of inaction in drastic terms — noting that the group had beheaded their victims, gouged out eyes and carried out crucifixions to promote goals from the "Dark Ages."
The vote was 524-43.
Earlier in the day, Belgium and Denmark also voted to join the coalition.
