IS Jihadists Launch New Offensive On Syria's Kobane
Stopped at the last minute in Kobane , the terrorist group known in the Arab world as Daesh — we do not use Islamic State , because the group is neither truly Islamic nor a state — is dispatching its murderers to other points along the Syrian-Turkish border.
We at Lambdaistanbul are concerned for all peoples who have experienced or risk experiencing the massacres of ISIS, especially the people of Kobane. We recognise that not only is it those such as the gay individual who was murdered yesterday in Izmir, but also the Kurds who are forced to face cruelty, that are the oppressed of the world. We do not shy away from stating again and again that social peace will provide everyone with a habitable world. We were concerned when the threat of massacre faced by the Kurds in Kobane today was realised in Sinjar yesterday.
Turkish Prime Minister Ahmet Davutoğlu said today that his government will not allow Turkish citizens to cross the border and join in the defense of Kobane against ISIS attacks. We don't want our citizens to fight in Syria and we are trying to stop those who illegally cross the border,” Davutoğlu said today. This marks yet another show of support by the government for ISIS. Idriss Nassan told the BBC IS had lost control of more than 20% of the town in recent days.
With the tide of deaths registered in Kerbala and elsewhere showing no sign of abating, some Shias are starting to complain out loud that the government and army command are incompetent at best, culpable at kobane news worst, and covering up the true of extent of battlefield losses. The Washington Post's Erin Cunnigham writes that Isis are using water as a weapon , cutting off supplies to villages resisting the group.
With the heavily-armed peshmerga in Kobane, there's renewed hope that the town won't fall to ISIS. That removes at least one flashpoint in the simmering hostilities between Turkey and the region's Kurds. Peshmerga fighters in Kobane, a town near the Turkish border that has become a focal point in the battle against the armed group, fired at least six rockets from pick-up trucks at ISIL positions on Saturday.
UN envoy for Syria Staffan de Mistura warned Friday that 12,000 or so civilians still in or near Kobane, including 700 mainly elderly people in the town centre, "will most likely be massacred" by IS if the town falls. US and allied aircraft have flown nearly 6,600 sorties in the air war against the Islamic State (IS) group and dropped more than 1,700 bombs, the American military said Thursday.

The faithful adherent of a religion will try first of all to convince those that believe in another religion and usually he goes on to hatred if he is not successful.

That flow of foreign fighters has worried governments across Europe, from where more than 3,000 people are thought to have travelled to support jihadists in Syria and Iraq. The consequences of this mobilisation have been far-reaching. The Syrian crisis revived the fortunes of the global jihad movement and kobane news it has never been stronger. It is better manned, better equipped and better financed than at any other point in the past century. Indeed, despite limited western intervention, the sheer number of IS fighters - many of them foreign - makes it impossible to see how the group will be uprooted any time soon.
On Wednesday a group of 200 Free Syrian Army (FSA) fighters entered the besieged town at the request of the People's Defence Corps (YPG), the Syrian-Kurdish forces who have been defending Kobani against the Isis attack since mid-September. The government of the Syrian president, Bashar al-Assad, harshly condemned the arrival of FSA and peshmerga fighters as a violation of its sovereignty and a disgraceful act” on the part of Turkey.
On October 5, 274 Kurds from Kobane were arrested at the Turkish border and held in a large room at a police station in the Turkish village of Suruc. Authorities have not given the people arrested kobane news — including many women and children — a reason for their detention, except to say they are suspected of being members of the YPG, the Kurdish fighters defending Kobane from the Islamic State.
