ISIS is losing against the Kurds, appears to already have lost in Kobane/i.
ISIS has overextended supply lines (and probably insufficient numbers, relying on al-Qaeda defectors) in western Syria.
In Iraq they haven’t made a bum move yet. The GCC helped the Kurds to keep the two halves apart.
And anyone who thinks ISIS running wild in the Gulf states should be strung up with piano wire.
