The unanswered question where are the Ground forces?

WHERE ARE THE 70,000 GROUND TROOPS
SILENCE WAS THE ANSWER

One of the most crucial parts of the debate still unanswered. Mr Cameron himself even stated that bombing alone could not defeat Daesh.

He went on to claim that there were 70,000 Syrian ground troops available. However when pressed by Angus Roberston, no one not Cameron, Hammond or numerous other back benchers on the Tory side who stood up, had anything meaningfull to offer.

Only one opposition member stood up to say after visiting Syrian she had been told the number was possibly 10-15,000

  1. So our air force goes into combat against Daesh.
  2. Cameron or Hammond had no clues to offer about any ground troops being available. Apart from the mystical and unsubstantiated 70,000 figure.
  3. Daesh cannot be defeated by air attack alone.
  4. The USA has been bombing Daesh for nearly 17 months now with little effect on their numbers.
  5. There is no exit strategy.


THERE ARE NO CREDIBLE GROUND FORCES
