British fighter pilots secretly prepare for bombing blitz to join Putin and wipe out ISIS

Yep. That's secret, alright.

As soon as the British Government back Syria airstrikes, a fleet of tornado fighter bombers will take to the air in Cyprus to launch missions on the Middle East.

RAF chief Martin Sampson said his jets were ready to expand their sorties to Syria.

He said: "We would be doing exactly the same job as we are doing in Iraq in a different piece of air space.

"The target is the same - ISIS.

"We are very well versed at striking them and we would do exactly the same thing in Syria."

The Air commodore said the UK's GR4 jets would be particularly valuable because they fire high precision missiles capable of killing a single person without killing anyone nearby.

Speaking to the Daily Star, he added: "The Tornado crews are ready to execute the mission wherever the politicians deem it necessary."

Prime Minister David Cameron is yet to give any details over when he plans to ask MPs to vote on military action against blood-thirsty ISIS fighters in Syria.

But he has paved the way for extending bombing raids against the sick terror group when he announced plans to double the unmanned drone fleet flying over Syria and to beef up SAS operations in the country.

EC, does "join Putin" mean literally team up with the Russians or just share the same goal?

Means share the same goal.

The headline is slightly misleading - the Star occasionally gives a nod to it's roots as the paper of the British Communist Party, though it's more main stream socialist with a heavy Little England slant now - the readership (still working class blokes who like a pint and a punt) has changed politically.

Hmmm....seems to me that the British do indeed think Barack Obama is bat-sh*t crazy, and have decided to assist in squashing ISIS in Syria.

Then, hopefully, in Iraq.
