BBC News: Reports " Gunfire and explosions can be heard from the Syrian border town of Kobane where Islamic State fighters are trying to encircle its Kurdish defenders. "
Lets Get Real:
One has to tip one's hat off to the Kurds, they are tough and fighting for each piece of Kobane, the bigger problem now faced by the US and its allies is the fact that Anbar province could fall within days, the US and its allies have to consider to ground troops otherwise they could just be holding Baghdad and Ibril for the Kurds. The US keep saying that they have a strategic plan, but if you lose most of Iraq and Syria to IS they have their State in all but name. The US Congress after the Mid Terms should declare War on IS, the US and its allies should go in full force to remove IS and then keep a limited presence in Iraq and let Iraq have the breathing space to grow a democracy, otherwise its all over. The Obama legacy will be the lost Iraq and Syria to IS.
