The Islamic State group is about to capture the Syrian border town of Kobani, Turkey's president said Tuesday, as outgunned Kurdish forces struggled to repel the extremists with limited aid from U.S.-led coalition airstrikes.
Turkish president says Syrian border town of Kobani will fall to jihadists, who have outgunned Kurdish forces with tanks, munitions stolen from Iraqi bases.

Obama is not interested in defeating ISIS. He just wants to LOOK like he is doing something.

Erdogan could stop this with his pinky finger if he was of a mind to oppose ISIS.
I take the current situation as Erdogan’s continuing SUPPORT of ISIS.

Some NATO member Turkey is plus they hate the Kurds. Islamic nations suck so very bad save for a scant few like the Kurds.

Turkey is playing anvil to ISIS’s hammer.
As proved by pictures above.

If Turkey is so concerned why are they not fighting ISIS?

The Kurds are Muslims too, Sunni Muslims.
If Kurds ever got the upper hand in the middle east they would be no better than any other Muslims who got the upper hand.

He may not care enough to even LOOK like he is doing something after the midterm elections.

That is exactly what I believe, and I further believe that Turkey is covertly a supporter of ISIS; only “in” on the efforts against ISIS because they understand that coalition attacks are pure Kabuki theater and to preserve their NATO status. Within months, you be sure that Turkey will be requesting giant arms and aid shipments in the context of and under the synthetic guise of maintaining their NATO strength.
The entire world understands that with 0bama at the helm, any scam they can come up with and run is easy pickings, and the pickings are the richest nation in history. Absolutely pathetic, pitiful.

G-d Damned worthless Turks ....I hope ISIS starts going after them where they live .
The extensive use of fuel air explosives on all the ISIS held areas around Kobane would be a good strategy
