Fact 4: The West has prolonged the fighting and blocked a peaceful solution to the conflict

Fact 5: The West has helped to create the conditions in Syria and Iraq that have allowed IS to grow and prosper

Fact 6: The West’s allies in the region have been supporting extremists in Syria, including IS

Fact 7: Western airstrikes in Syria and Iraq have killed hundreds of civilians
