You folks are not the sharpest knives in the drawer!!! Syria’s town of Kobane was never a “real” ISIS target. It was a well planned distraction to take the eyes and attention of Obama and company off the “real” prizes, the Bagdad International Airport and then Bagdad, itself. As soon as Obama, the buffoon, reacts to the ISIS Bagdad campaign and switches bombing to Anwar Province...ISIS will move in force, and destroy the Kurdiah town of Kobane!!! Obama is totally braindead!!!
You may be right. But the question remains: Why did they go after another "quick" victory in Syria's Kobani after suffering major loses by the Iraqi Kurds? I believe to save face and keep the international fighters coming in.
