Refugees fleeing Syria have become big news and that’s no real surprise bearing in mind that Europe is witnessing the largest humanitarian crisis since the Second World War.
Today though, the BBC is dedicating air time to whether or not it was lawful to kill two British citizens fighting for IS in a targeted RAF drone strike in Syria.

My view is this – the two jihadi fighters deserve no sympathy at all. These people took up arms for an illegitimate regime that has caused death and destruction on a tremendous scale and believes in/actively promotes ethnic cleansing.
On one hand the media is concerned about the welfare of refugees and on the other, it is concerned about the legality of killing two British scumbags that represented the terrorist organisation responsible for the massive refugee crisis.
Surely anyone that fights under the IS black flag is a legitimate military target regardless of what nationality they claim?
Though this is harsh, every British jihadi that dies arguably frees up a British citizenship that could be given to a refugee more deserving of it (and that just might add some value to the UK). Maybe the RAF should be targeting more of our home-grown, IS arms-bearing, extremist, hate-filled lunatics.
The only thing that will properly resolve the refugee crisis is the reclamation of the lands that they had to flee from and a removal of the threats they faced. Many more jihadis are going to have to die to achieve this and frankly it’s irrelevant if they are British and wiped out by British ordnance.
