PKK is mobilising in Kobani.
Yes, I just saw a report that this was a "planned exercise". The timing is interesting, though.
Graphic.
Let's say Russia and Assad were, to some "broad extent", necessary evils against ISIS & cie.
I do remember Russia's intervention in Syria was, perhaps not acclaimed, but at least saluted by a good portion of the world community. Especially since it came shortly after the bloody ISIS terror attacks in France and several other European countries.
Yes, they are buddies with Iran, Huthis, Hamas and Hezbollah, but these are relatively well contained threats in and of themselves. In addition to being localized.
ISIS however is hated by everybody, or rather almost everybody. It is pretty much THE common enemy everybody can agree on, apart from one or two unsavory "allies".
Ultimately the best course of action would have been: let's set our differences aside for the time being, let's thoroughly deal with that threat and weed it out once and for all; and then we can go back to our ever lasting quarrels.
Or, better, let's find a way to end them in a way that would not lead to more blood being shed.
I am pretty confident the people living in these regions are more than tired of these never ending, multi-generational wars, and would welcome some long lasting peace of sort. But that might be a bit too idealistic.
Time the burst. Exactly the time it takes to say: "die commie, die". It's so effed up over there, I'm not sure the US should even be involved in that clusterfvck......but you know who 's in charge when you are smoking Iranian proxies with A-10 gun runs, over Syria.
