...in thinking about this, this morning.. I'm not sure that it was ever going to be any different an outcome, it was always just..'when'..not if or should we/shouldn't we...as always with an attack/threat, it's flee or fight...as nations, as public, we can't flee, that's been shown with every civilian attack, we wouldn't know where to flee to, we wouldn't know what a place of safety was....there's negotiation yeah, but not with extremists, not with IS, negotiation is not something they want...I think it was Livia that said..we don't have anything to negotiate, nothing they want, nothing they want to hear...so there's only fight and that fight, the bombings were always going to happen ..today, tomorrow, a month away, at some point because of the relentlessness of IS and the relentlessness of their attacks that would just keep coming and coming...it's not something that sits comfortably/the bombing of Syria, I don't think that it is with any of us but I think it was never going to be any other outcome ...
