Prime Minister David Cameron is seeking a bigger role for the U.K. in the fight to eradicate Islamic State in Syria and Iraq, urging an intensified campaign against an ideology that uses recruits as “cannon fodder.”
Cameron used a speech on Monday to warn young Britons against travel abroad to join the movement’s ranks, after saying over the weekend that his government is discussing how the U.K. can contribute more to the struggle against its expansion in the Middle East. He also said that parents would be able get their children’s’ passports canceled if they feared they’d been radicalized.
