Kurds are getting tougher and tougher. this is what nationalism can do gents, that(and of course a substantial amount of USAF) could get you back from brink of genocide(kobane, yo) to one of the most powerful groups of the war.

I mean think about it, if ISIS didnt target kobane and draw young-old, women-men thousands of kurds to come support kobane , as of now we wouldnt be talking about ypg's might. it was like an epic tale of gondor vs mordor. peshmerga being rohan, eagles being fricking USAF. salih muslim as gandalf.
