In a remarkable new video released by the Islamic State militants, British hostage John Cantlie kobane news gives a tour of the Syrian city of Kobane and denounces Western coverage of the fighting in the city.
Here comes America's war on Syria. Soon the British will be pushing this narrative. They take us for idiots. That they can lie to us that blatantly shows how much respect they have for us. Kurds in western Europe and in Turkey rallied to call kobane news for more support for fighters confronting Isis forces in the northern Syrian border town of Kobani. Isis fighters have threatened to take the town this week, with some entering its outskirts and fighting Kurdish forces in the streets.
I support all that, Jim, but in reality, no resolution will now make any difference to Kobane, especially considering the shameful slowness of our politicians. Either the heroes of Kobane will succeed or they will fail on their own, and it could be over any day, or any hour. All that could possibly save them now is massive round the clock A-10 airstrikes and possibly ammo drops. We'll take it as given that Turkey will continue to cruelly sit by and hope ISIS wipe out the Kurds.
The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said about 20 Islamic State fighters managed to sneak into the eastern part of Kobani but were ambushed and killed by Kurdish militiamen. Syrian Kurdish forces have long kobane news been among the most effective adversaries of Isis, keeping the extremists out of the Kurdish enclave in north-eastern Syria even as the militants routed the armed forces of both Syria and neighbouring Iraq.
From across the Turkish border, the sound of heavy gunfire and shelling could be heard late into the night from just across the frontier and plumes of black smoke could be seen rising from several parts of the Syrian town. Australia has six Super Hornet strike fighters based in the United Arab Emirates, and Parliament has authorized the use of up to eight, said Air Chief Marshal Mark Binskin.
But that raises the stakes for the U.S. and its allies. Having smothered ISIS's momentum, an eventual ISIS victory in the battle for Kobani would be a more devastating defeat for the U.S. military than an earlier collapse of the town. With the fighting raging, the corpses of at least 70 jihadists were brought over the past four days into a Daesh controlled mortuary in the town of Tal Abyad further east, said the Observatory.
Turkish military fired tear gas on the crowd, who had been shouting slogans and flashing victory signs representing support for the Kurdistan Workers Party (PKK) and their affiliate in Syria, the Democratic Unity Party (PYD). The PKK is considered a terrorist group in Turkey, where it has conducted a three decade long insurrection against the government, which has a long history of violently suppressing Kurdish rights.
The whole appalling situation has been fuelled by long standing grievances over corruption, war profiteering, the theft of weapons and supplies and increased public sympathy for ANF after they were bombed in the initial Coalition airstrikes in Syria against the Islamic State. US fighters and bombers have carried out 10 air strikes on Kobane since Wednesday, US Central Command said.
Listen listen! Do you hear those planes?” We were sitting around drinking çay in the village of Measêr, which is situated a couple of kilometres from the Syrian border, with Kobane in full view. Muhammad's whole body shook with excitement at the sound coming kobane news from the sky. As it became more audible, we scrambled up onto the roof of the mosque to get a better view in the hope of seeing an airstrike hit eastern Kobane again. But no airstrike came. Maybe it's the airdrop!” Muhammad proclaimed with a gleeful smile.
In Deir EZ-Zour province, tightening its control on civilian life, IS has closed down all schools pending a revision” of the curriculum. All teachers will have to attend a 1 month course on religious education which will avoid the current infidel” system. All this week, largely unnoticed by the mainstream media, a major battle has been raging in Syria's southern province of Daraa for control of the city of Shaykh Miskin, the 3rd largest city in the region.
