> a very interesting video on the WIN Facebook page. It's of a protest in London of Kurdish people. They are saying that in Kobane, the people have set up their own democratic council. They also are saying that the Erdogan regime is in effect supporting ISIS, which means that the US is also at least passively. They complain that the people of Kobane are being left to fight on their own, with no support of weapons nor of "humanitarian" aid. It's interesting that the protesters (or at least one of those interviewed) opposes the entry of Western troops, even to fight ISIS. [David Johnson]
