#2 You get the feeling the Turks have taken a page out of old Joe Stalin's book? The one where the ever victorious Red Army reaches the outskirts of Warsaw. Then the Polish Home Army revolts against their Nazi oppressors. Joe and the Red Army just sit there watching the Nazis reduce Warsaw (again) and march off the defeated Poles. Thus removing from Warsaw any potential competition in the post-war rule of Warsaw and Poland.

So, is Turkey allowing ISIL to remove their Kurdish 'problem' for them?

#4 * TOPIX > [Washington Times] PENTAGON SAYS BAGHDAD AT RISK OF "ISLAMIC STATE" TAKEOVER, EXPECTS KOBANE TO FALL.

Looks the Bammer + Dems may take a serious propaganda hit wid this one, i.e. KURDISH WOMEN + KIDDIES DIE FIGHTING IN DEFENSE OF KOBANE/KOBANI AS OBAMA REFUSES TO SEND IN US GROUND TROOPS.

* BHARAT RAKSHAK > [Fox News, NYT] WHITE HOUSE REPORTEDLY FRUSTRATED WID TURKISH INACTION AGZ ISIS.

Again, TURKEY won't send in its military to relieve Kobane/Kobani unless the US-Allies gets rid of Baby Assad in Syria. Ditto IRAN unless its NucProg issues are formally resolved first.

D *** NG IT, THATS RIDICULOUS, THE ISIS HASN'T DESTABILIZED TURKEY [nor IRAN] YET, + BESIDES ITS NOT THE YEAR 2030-2040 YET.

Silly boy.

Must be Justin Bieber fans.
