   Why should we carry out air strikes in Syria?

   • There is a much more fundamental answer as to why we should carry out air strikes in Syria ourselves. And it’s this. It is Raqqa in Syria that is the headquarters of this threat to our security. It is in Syria where they pump and sell the oil that does so much to help finance their evil acts.
