Stand and Watch

Ignore the "Tory split" stuff; they won't do it, and they'd all lose their seats if they did. But Peter Hitchens writes:

Almost everything you thought you knew about the war with IS has been proved untrue by the absurd stand-off at Kobane on the Syrian-Turkish border.

Turkey isn’t our ally, even though it’s in Nato. On the contrary, it’s an increasingly Islamist state run by a dangerous demagogue who should worry us as much as IS does.

That’s why the Turkish tanks stand and watch as IS overwhelms the brave defenders of Kobane.

  1. What's Peter Hitchens got against Islamists? The only difference between him and them is what religion they are.
