Therefore, when Prime Minister David Cameron indicates that he will throw in the towel in the global fight against ISIS and says that Britain is committed to working with the US to destroy the "caliphate" set up by Islamic State militants in Iraq and Syria, one can sense that things are heading for a showdown.
This has been reported in bbc.com dated 19 July 2015.
However, for Britain to really take the plunge, it must have the backing of its Parliament and, it may be recalled that MPs voted against proposed military action in Syria two years ago.
Of course, Prime Minister David Cameron on his part is trying to send out a message to young Britons who may be influenced by the ISIS propaganda and be tempted to join IS fighters. He wants to tell them that they will end up as little more than "cannon fodder". If a boy, they will brainwash you, strap bombs to your body and blow you up; if you are a girl, they will enslave and abuse you.
