Nadita Posted October 13, 2014 Report Share Posted October 13, 2014 The ISIS Has Been Forced To Fall Back Near Kobani, You Won’t Believe Who Is Standing In Their Way The ISIS is now clearly a number one terror threat in size. Their barbaric acts have become all too apparent, and shockingly, they seem to continue their march into civilian regions, slaughtering men, women, and children with complete disregard to human life. Though America and Australia have begun aerial attacks, the ISIS fighters seemed to be gaining ground near Kobani, a relatively isolated enclave in Kurdistan. However, against all odds, a relatively puny force has positioned itself between the town and the ISIS fighters, and has surprisingly forced the terror organization to halt its march.Earlier this week, Turkish President Tayyip Erdogan said the isolated Kurdish enclave of Kobani was “about to fall” to a massive, sustained assault from ISIS, reported RT. A couple of days later, Rooz Bahjat, a Kurdish intelligence officer stationed in Kobani, said the city would fall within “the next 24 hours,” reported The Atlantic.By today, the world expected to hear that ISIS has begun exterminating the local population with extreme prejudice. But, astonishingly, that hasn’t happened. Asreported by The Daily Star, the ISIS forces have been stopped dead in their tracks and many “regiments” have been forced to fall back from their conquered posts.Under the protection of air strikes orchestrated by America and its coalition forces, the Kurdish People’s Protection Units (YPG) have managed to push ISIS fighters outside several key areas.The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, a Britain-based monitoring group, confirmed that ISIS fighters had withdrawn overnight from several areas, and were no longer inside the western part of Kobani. But that’s not all — Mustafa Ebdi, a Kurdish journalist and activist from Kobani, wrote on his Facebook page that the streets of one southeastern neighborhood were “full of the bodies” of ISIS fighters.How has the poorly armed country managed to hold back the world’s largest terrorist network? Kobani has been under attack by 9,000 ISIS jihadists, armed with tanks and heavy artillery for nearly a month. They were being feebly challenged by just 2,000 Kurdish fighters with the YPG, the armed wing of the Kurdish Workers’ Party (PKK), without access to any heavy weaponry and short on ammunition.Though Ill-Equipped And Poorly Trained, The Kurdish Women Have Proven That During A Battle It Is The Motivation That MattersHowever, the Kurds have something that no ISIS regiment will ever have. The Kurd ranks have been steadily filled by women fighters. A very large percentage of the YPG fighters who have been so good at killing ISIS jihadists are women, reported Al Monitor.Many women have been emboldened by the thought that the ISIS militants strongly believe they won’t go to paradise if they are killed by a woman. Some even believe that women fighters make the ISIS nervous and hysterical.Whatever may be the justification, the facts remain that the Kurdish enclave of Kobani is yet to fall into the hands of the ISIS, and the women fighters have a lot to do with this success. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DWitte Posted October 13, 2014 Report Share Posted October 13, 2014 Absolutely Awesome. My daughter serves in the United States Navy and is tops in her position on a guided missile destroyer. I am proud and honor her and all who serve in righteousness in this world no matter where they are. Men and women alike. Best of luck to the Kurdish women and all women who fight to save Kobani. They have more balls than Obama. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skeetdog Posted October 13, 2014 Report Share Posted October 13, 2014 Thanks Nadita....DWitte thanks for sharing your daughter's valor in determination to be the best she can be to protect our freedoms and liberty...Please extend my humble gratitude for exhibiting the American Spirit in achieving her utmost.... These young Kurdish women have the very opposite of what the Iraqi Army lacked, that threw down their weapons and ran..... ....Time has proven the metal of women and their courageous nature in the face of combat...The French, German Underground, Bosnia, Cervical all had some of the fierce women in front line fighting and the men that fought with them had only gratitude for them....
