Killing 100 in 3 days is probably not even keeping up.

Kobane is turning into a Stalingrad...

“The Assad forces are using the U.S. and allied campaign against the Islamic State to make a massive step up in air attacks on other rebels,” he wrote.

Assad is pretty smart.

Hagel has emerged as a leading critic of President Obama’s Syria strategy, “expressing concern about the overall Syria strategy,”

And, of course, the 'overall Syria strategy of the Obama regime has been to turn Syria over to Islamic militants of one flavor or another.

ISIS was doing what it was supposed to do before it jumped the rails and started giving Obama bad PR. So they are trying to spank them to get them back into line. They don’t want to defeat them, they want to harness them.

Wow.
That's about 10% of the new volunteers that ISIS gets each month.
Do the math.

I still don't understand how ISIS can make propaganda-recruiting videos showing hundreds of black Pijama clad rabid koranimals waving their weapons in their Toyota pickups out in the open countryside or in the middle of large cities.
Target rich environment, yet drones and other intelligence fails to identify and locate them. 100 casualties would seem possible in a single strike.

Assuming the military leaders are allowed to do their jobs.

“I have always admired the Kurds.”

My friend in Israel told me in 2003 the Kurds and Mossad worked behind the scenes to get Saddam Hussein captured.

I imagine their behind the scenes alliance has continued.

Over the last three days, at least 100 members of ISIS and its religious police have been killed

The only good Islamist is a dead Islamist.

Hopefully the were all killed by Kurdish women so they don’t get their 72 virgins.

“That’s about 10% of the new volunteers that ISIS gets each month.”

Yes, it does seem low. But I think in history - 10% is a good number. To “decimate” the enemy is 10% dead (or maybe its total casualties). Not like in the movies perhaps - but its okay.

Especially when our airstrikes are no doubt more for show than anything else. I recall one newscast where it said something like “The U.S. launched 8 airstrikes over the weekend, with several armored vehicles hit, and confirmed 3 ISIS casualties.”
