British Parliament Debating Plan to Bomb Syria 
-----------------------------------------------


 
Meanwhile, the British parliament is debating on whether to join the
U.S.-led bombing campaign in Syria against ISIS. Prime Minister David
Cameron is urging lawmakers to approve the airstrikes. The opposition
Labour Party has split on the issue. Opposition leader Jeremy Corbyn has
long been opposed to the plan. On Tuesday, thousands rallied outside the
British parliament to voice opposition to the bombing campaign.
Protester and student Hadi Nasrallah spoke out.

Hadi Nasrallah: "When they are going to bomb ISIS, many civilians will
die, like tons of civilians will die. I'm speaking thousands, because
the U.S. already killed a lot, the U.S. and allies already killed a lot,
so the UK is just going to make it worse."
