Lets Get Real:
The Oval must have placed a lot of pressure on Turkey to allow this, also the home politics of Turkey might have also added to this decision, there HAVE been many Kurds in Turkey who have protested that they have not been allowed to fight with their fellow Kurds. Also Kobane has become the symbol for the Oval of the fight against IS. As the article notes the US had dropped weapons and other equipment for the Kurds. The Oval and its allies can not afford to see Kobane fall, there has not been that much success in the bombing of Syria and Iraq, a win of Kobane by IS would be a PR disaster. There will be a lot more bombing of Kobane before it ends.
