130,000 Syrian Kurds cross border into Turkey in 2 days

The ISIS onslaught in northern Syria has uprooted tens of thousands of Kurds who have been streaming into Turkey the last 3 days. The UN says more than 130,000 desperate refugees have poured acriss the Turkish border, with thousands more waiting to get in.

The situation got so bad that Turkey was forced to close all but two of its 9 border crossing, so big was the crush of humanity.

Meanwhile, the Kurdish militia fighting ISIS says it has halted the terrorist's advance on the strategic border town of Ayn al-Arab.

From Reuters:

"Fierce clashes are still under way but the ISIS (Islamic State) advance to the east of Kobani has been halted since last night," Redur Xelil, spokesman for the main Kurdish armed group, the YPG, said via Skype.

He said the eastern front was the scene of the fiercest fighting in the offensive launched by Islamic State last Tuesday on Kobani, also known in Arabic as Ayn al-Arab. More than 100,000 Syrian Kurds, driven by fear of Islamic State, have fled its advance, many crossing the border into Turkey.

To be clear, Kurds are no different than the “Northern Alliance” in Afghanistan.

Useful to exploit for short term gain. I met with Rashid Dostum in Afghanistan. I was the bridge between CTF 180 and Dostum.

We can arm the Peshmerga. They are outclassed by the Turkish land forces and air forces. This is an internicene struggle pitting muslims against muslims, tribe against tribe.

They will rape pillage and enslave, rob and abuse the vanquished. In the end they will still be muslim—no matter who prevails nothing will change.

This is the reality. We are being led to an insane parlor game of choosing between the Bloods and the Crips or MS-13.

Wholesale slaughter is what they will do between themselves, what they have done and continue to do against all non-muslims as they are doing to fellow muslims.

Do we need to own this? Or do we just watch as the demonic savages exterminate themselves?

A Caliphate is coming. It will be brutal. Millions will die. Millions.

Quarantine. Obliterate. After the radiation is abated, occupy. Or not. The muslim animals will self immolate.

Preserve and defend Israel. Once the muslim usurper Obama leaves office we can focus our efforts on defending Israel.

Or not. God knows and has stated what He will do. It is not up to me. Islam is Satan’s last stand. Islam is the vehicle of destruction that Satan inyended it to be.

I repeat myself—look it up. It is plain to see.

Obama is an islamist. It will not end well.

The UN and obama will find them a home after the November elections.

In other words, they’re coming to the USA.
