France appeals directly for Britain to join war against Isis in Syria

The French government has taken the highly unusual step of expressing the hope that the Royal Air Force “will soon be working side by side with their French counterparts” in taking military action in Syria.
In a sometimes emotional appeal, the French defence minister writes in the Guardian that UK military capabilities would “put additional and extreme pressure on the Isis terror network”.
Jean-Yves Le Drian says he wants the RAF “to take the fight to the very heart of Isis, defeating it and making our countries and peoples safer”.
