"Corbyn said "bombs and war will never make peace" "
He's right of course
Diplomatic and economic pressure could and should have been used way back when Assad got going - bombs have been resorted to by the country that used the first weapon of mass destruction on two cities filled with civilians - the survivors and their families produced deformed children for many decades later - while the same countries carried out a years-long chemical bombing programme on third-world peasants
The point is that no bomb has ever been invented that can discriminate between combatants and non-combatants
Al Whittle had the right of it when he wrote "easier than standing under where the bombs are falling!"
This Trump inspired gesture is no more than that - isn't there a half-term election in the offing!
Before one of the 'warriors' here as what should hae been done, I can only suggest the reply given to a Yankee Tourist asking the way; "I wouldn't start from here if I was you"
