Kurds drive ISIS out of Kobani after 4-month struggle

BEIRUT/ISTANBUL - Kurdish forces took full control of the Syrian town of Kobani on Monday, driving out remaining Islamic State fighters to end a four-month battle that became a focal point of the international fight against the ultra-hardline Islamist group.

Monitoring group Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said Syrian Kurdish YPG forces had retaken the town, close to the Turkish border, but were still proceeding carefully in the eastern outskirts where Islamic State had planted mines before fleeing.
U.S. bombing had gone on for weeks in and around Kobani, a border town attractive to ISIS as a secure crossing for weapons and supplies. Kurdish YPG forces took down the ISIS flag from a hill overlooking Kobani and put up there own about 9:30 a.m. U.S. Central time today.

I'll praise anyone who does something about the terrorist threat, unlike Cameron and Obama who want to let Iran get a nuclear weapon, while Obama tells the world in his SOTU address that the "greatest threat to U.S. security" is ...

... are you ready? ...

... global warming!!

What an idiot!

And your effort to call the Kurds Nazis is an interesting new twist in utter stupidity, BTW.

The Kurds proved to the world that they deserve a country of their own. They are hard working and good people with very high morals. I went to school with a few Kurdish kids, back in my country we have Kurdish communities. I loved watching documentaries about the courageous Kurdish ladies driving IS out of their land. What a great spirit of courage. Each of these ladies should be named as heroes and used as role models for the girls all over the world.

NAZI (as in, an advocate or member of the German Nationalist Socialist Workers Party under the leadership of Adolf Hitler) is not synonymous with a Kurdish national socialist. But yes, regardless of your faulty correlations, the Kurdish YGP (not ''Kurds'' in general, as you assume I said) are the military wing of the Democratic Union Party of Northern Syria, who are democratic nationalist socialists, dummy.

A democratic nationalist socialist is no more than a person who is an advocate of creating a political system of democratic socialism for the interests of their own country.

Gee, you almost got it right, but as usual, in your rush to impugn those who disagree with you -- whom you therefore hate -- you overlooked one small item: Kurdish YPG is the national ARMY of Syrian Kurdistan. They are neither socialist nor radicals, though the Kurdish PPG in Turkey most definitely is a terrorist organization attempting to establish a free Kurdistan in the region.

Kurds historically were Christian, though after they succumbed to the Islamic invasion of their native homelands along what is now northern Iraq, western Syria, and eastern Turkey and Iran, they -- in typical rebel fashion -- became Sufi mystics, Allah worshipers with twists to their belief system that defy other Islamic sects.

So no, you didn't get it right, your biased and incorrect "definition" of "national socialist" not withstanding. And I'll refrain from the juvenile name calling in response. Though I have to admit to being tempted.

They are the national army of Syran Kurdistan (which is not a country of its own), fighting on behalf of the nationalist socialist political party ''The Democratic Union Party'' or ''PYD'', who want Kurdistan to become its own democratic socialist country!

Irrelevant to the point. The YPG are the army allied to the Democratic Union Party of Syrian Kurdistan. They fight for nationalist socialist ideals.

So no, you didn't get it right, your biased and incorrect "definition" of "national socialist" not withstanding. And I'll refrain from the juvenile name calling in response. Though I have to admit to being tempted.
A nationalist is a person who upholds the idea of the right of a specific region to sovereignty (in this case, Kurdish Nationalists), and a socoalist is a person who upholds the idea of creating a socialist society. The political party to which this army are affiliated de facto is the Democratic Union Party, which is a Kurish Nationalist Socialist organization.

Are you thick or just blind?
