As British Prime Minister David Cameron declared from Paris on Monday his desire to escalate the UK’s military campaign against the Islamic State (ISIS) in both Iraq and Syria, campaigners are looking to Jeremy Corbyn to see whether the Labour Party leader can temper the nation’s march to war.

Cameron is trying to rally support for a pending parliamentary vote authorizing the Royal Air Force to bomb Syria, joining ongoing airstrikes by the United States, France, and Russia in that country, and the amplified regional onslaught against ISIS following the attacks in Paris earlier this month.

“We must also do more to defeat ISIL [ISIS] in their heartlands in Syria and Iraq,” Cameron declared on Monday. “I firmly support the action President Hollande has taken to strike ISIL in Syria and it is my firm conviction that Britain should do so too.”
