Alasha you should expand number of sources. It's hard to believe this since KDP media is anti PKK and PKK media is anti-KDP. Also, how did PKK who are hunted block Rudaw xD? |

It's been said on several occasions that they haven't allowed reporters to cover scenes in WK + imposed media blocks. Although, I don't think this is always a bad thing. |

This is getting to ridiculous. Rudaw TV is THE most professional media platform on covering all about Kurdish news and especially about Rojava/Kobane at this time. Here comes the supporters from PKK who is brainwashed with a wrong ideology and created disunity all over the world when ever there is a Kurdish protest. It is about time for Qandil to send out a renewed signal so we can have more unity |

There has been enough of sources for you to understand by now that Rudaw TV has a hard time with PKK. PKK have people all over Germany. This is not about some PKK fighters coming down from Qandil and create obstacle for Rudaw Tv in Germany

that must be a joke, Rudaw is a KDP news station, it doesn't matter how professional it is, it will always be biased. NRT is much much better |

Whether it is Nechirvan TV or not, it is doing it duty as a Kurdish media to cover as much as it can and spread information as much as it can about Kurdish struggle inn all 4 parts of Kurdistan. If PKK has in it minds that they will try to stop this, then bad for them. |

Kurds Protest Against IS in Israel The difference between Israel and the rest of the world is that no Kurd has ever been punished or beaten or killed or harassed. May the state of israel live long and prosper. |

UKurd, dont take this away from it original point. Let me not remind you of PKK propaganda media who time to time do some really nasty propaganda war against other Kurdish parties. Do you remember who offered Roj tv and other PKK affiliated media channels to operate in SK because Denemark/Turkey revoked their license??? Have you even watched Rudaw TV? They have almost 24/7 coverage of Rojava and other world media is using them as source, can you try to find me the biased level of news you try to tell me Rudaw TV has???? |

so is your point "if they do it, so can we"? because that isnt a very good point to be making... and i've watched rudaw quite alot actually ive seen how they try to make pkk look bad, sure they do coverage of rojava but that doesnt mean their not biased, to be asking me how are they biased is idiotic to say the least, its a pro-kdp new station what more do i need to say? its like saying KNN isnt biased or Kurdsat isnt biased.. |

I was not pointing on if they do it, so can we"?, but rather to show you that the way PKK is handling other kurdish new outlet is not the way to go, when you look at how SK offered PKK media outlet to operate in SK after their license got revoked. Rudaw TV might be close to PDK, but it is not like you are trying to make it look like by saying it tries to make PKK look bad. They do report about PKK movement and statements which might make you believe they are trying to portrate them as bad boys. Lets not get to off topic as this was more about PKK protesters thinking and not media channels. |

Turkish troops fire on Syrian Kurdish protesters from Qamishlo QAMISHLO, Syrian Kurdistan,— Turkish forces have fired on Syrian Kurdish protesters from the border town of Qamishli in Syrian Kurdistan. The protesters said they were trying to show support for fellow Kurds in the beleaguered Syrian town of Kobani. Ankara says the demonstrators provoked the violence. On Thursday, thousands of demonstrators in Qamishli, a Syrian border town to the east, took their message into the Turkish buffer zone, a dusty, vacant no-man's-land between the two countries. An exclusive video captured by VOA's Kurdish service shows ethnic Kurds on both sides of the Turkish-Syrian border rallying in support of the people of Kobani, under heavy attack from Islamic State militants. Kurdish Service reporter Zana Omer reports the protesters praised Syrian Kurdish militias for their resistance against the Islamic State. The militias are viewed with suspicion by Ankara for their links to the PKK. Also known aswww.Ekurd.net the Kurdistan Workers Party, the PKK fought against the Turkish government for almost 40 years until a 2013 cease-fire. The PKK is considered a terrorist group by Turkey and the U.S. The Syrian Kurdish protesters were joined in the open buffer zone by Kurds from Nusaybin on the Turkish side of the border. Kurds consider the two cities to be one with the border running down the middle of it. The two groups joined together in pulling down the wire fences that separated their cities. Turkey's regional governor Mustafa Taskesen said the protesters raised the PKK flag on the border: "And they sandwiched our soldiers. They took our soldiers' position and as I said, raised the flag." Turkish forces used tear gas to try to disperse the crowd and get it to leave the off-limits military zone, one that a Turkish armed forces statement says is "a heavily mined area." Factual dispute The Turkish armed forces said in a statement that sentries fired warning shots first in the air and then on the ground. However, the crowd -- estimated by the Turkish military at 4 to 5,000 -- refused to leave. The Turkish military said Syrian Kurds then shot at Turkish soldiers, forcing the sentries to respond in kind. While at least one protester threw rocks, journalist Zana Omer saw no guns among the protesters. Turkish officials maintained that guns were central to the day's events, part of what the armed forces called a smuggling operation. Taskesen said, "We have welcomed refugees, but these 2,000 people who were trying to cross the border were not refugees. They had a different agenda... What we have learned was that those people smuggled arms and ammunition into Nusaybin [Turkey]." Taskesen added that the Turkish military had received intelligence two days earlier that the protesters' intent was to use their march to create "chaos" in order to mask their smuggling operation. Both sides agree there were casualties. According to Omer, at least four people on the Syrian side were shot and injured. The fate of one victim remains unclear. Kurdish unrest Almost every Turkish city with a significant Kurdish population has seen protests and riots in the last week as the situation in Kobani has worsened. At least 22 have been killed across the country in the worst violence Turkey has experienced in years. While the Turkish Parliament has approved military action against the Islamic State and mustered tanks and troops along the border, the military has not acted, infuriating Turkey's Kurdish population. Friday, the U.N. envoy to Syria, Staffan de Mistura, urged Turkey to let "volunteers" [Kurds] cross the border to reinforce Kurdish militias defending Kobani against Islamic State militants. He warned that 700 civilians who remain trapped in Kobani, plus about 12,000 gathered nearby, will most likely be "massacred" if the city falls to the Islamists. Turkey's President Recep Tayyip Erdogan said on Friday he will not give into street protesters demanding his government do more to protect Kurds.

Thousands of Syrian Kurdish refugees leave Turkey for Iraq: UN GENEVA,— Thousands of Syrian Kurds who fled the Islamic State jihadists' assault on the Syrian Kurdistan's town of Kobani have moved from Turkey to Iraq or back to safer parts of their homeland, the UN said Friday. "We are seeing growing numbers choosing to continue their journey, either by heading to the South Kurdistan of Iraq or else crossing back into Syria several hundred kilometres to the east," said Adrian Edwards, spokesman for the UN high commissioner for refugees. Some 172,000 Kurds have fled to Turkey to escape the onslaught on the key border town and its surrounding region, Edwards told reporters, though Turkish authorities have said the number could be around 200,000. Numbers moving on to Iraq's South Kurdistan are on the rise, Edwards said, with 1,600 arriving at the remote Gawilan refugee camp over the past two weeks. "Between 150 and 200 Syrians have been arriving daily this week, and the trend is expected to continue in the coming days," he said. Most have reported having spent 10-14 days in the area around Sanilurfa in Turkey before heading eastwards into Iraq. "Conditions in the area have been difficult. People have contended with living in crowded mosques or in some cases on the streets without food or money," said Edwards. "Many of the refugees were required to leave cars or livestock at the border when they entered Turkey, and decided to move to KRG because they have relatives or friends there," he added. Those arriving the Gawilan camp -- often with the help of Iraqi Kurdish security forces -- have recounted stories of their odyssey. Edwards said there were several accounts of people being killed or maimed by landmines during their journey from Syria to Turkey. To reach Iraq, they waded across deep rivers, or paid smugglers $250 (197 euros) to get through an informal border crossing at Silopi. There were also chilling accounts of atrocities by Islamic State fighters in Syria. "One man said he had fled his village because people taken captive were being beheaded," said Edwards. Another managed to flee after being sentenced to death by a makeshift court at a school in Manbij, south of Kobani,www.Ekurd.net where 100 people where held in each of the four classrooms, beaten daily, and watched fellow inmates being beheaded. "He and others managed to escape before then when the school was hit by bombs, and were horrified to see human heads mounted on the fence of the main park for others in the town to see," said Edwards. Kobani, also known as Ain al-Arab, is Syria's third largest Kurdish town after Qamishli and Afrin. Some 1,750 Kurds who fled to Turkey have opted to cross back into Syrian Kurdistan to reach the Kurdish city of Qamishli and the surrounding area, said Edwards.

Easy, Rudaw is owned by Nechirvan. It's not my fault it's biased. And how am I blinded by an ideology, I just admitted PKK media is also very biased when it comes to KDP. You just have a hard time accepting this, do you...much fanboy? |

We need more than "escalation" of airstrikes.... Kurdish fighters in Kobani call for escalation of air strikes against Isis Kurdish forces defending the embattled Syrian border town of Kobani urged the US-led coalition to escalate air strikes on Islamic State (Isis) fighters as the militants tightened their grip on the town on Saturday. A Kurdish military official said that Isis had brought more tanks and artillery to the frontlines, while street-to-street fighting was making it harder for jets to target the militants’ positions. “We have a problem, which is the war between houses,” said Esmat al-Sheikh, head of the Kobani defence council. “The air strikes are benefiting us, but Islamic State is bringing tanks and artillery from the east. We didn’t see them with tanks, but yesterday we saw T-57 tanks,” he added. The US said it carried out six air strikes on Isis militants near Kobani on Friday and Saturday, while US and Dutch planes launched three strikes on targets in Iraq near Tal Afar and Hit. The aerial attacks, which were cheered by refugees on the Turkish side of the border, have helped to delay the advance of Isis by destroying some of their largest guns. “We are getting stronger,” said Anwar Muslim, a lawyer and head of the city council who stayed on in Kobani after most officials left. “What we wanted from the beginning was to get rid of the heavy weapons so we can fight honestly. They tried everything to get inside [Kurdish-controlled areas], but for now they are still outside.” A group that monitors the Syrian civil war said the Kurdish forces faced inevitable defeat in Kobani if Turkey did not open its border to let through arms - something Ankara has so far appeared reluctant to do. “[Islamic State] is getting supplies and men, while Turkey is preventing Kobani from getting ammunition. Even with the resistance, if things stay like this, the Kurdish forces will be like a car without fuel,” said Rami Abdelrahman, who runs the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights. Earlier on Saturday, Kurdish fighters held back a push by Isis towards the heart of Kobani. The pre-dawn attack came after Isis militants overran the Kurdish headquarters in the border town on Friday, sparking fears they would cut off the last escape route to neighbouring Turkey. The renewed Isis drive on the centre of Kobani sparked 90 minutes of heavy fighting with the town’s Kurdish defenders before the jihadis fell back, the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said. The UN envoy for Syria, Staffan de Mistura, has warned that about 12,000 civilians still living in or near Kobani, including about 700 mainly elderly people in the town centre, “will most likely be massacred” by Isis if the town falls. Kobani was “literally surrounded” except for one narrow entry and exit point to the Turkish border, and De Mistura called on Turkey to support the coalition’s actions. Ankara has been deeply reluctant to allow weapons or Kurdish fighters to cross the border. However, US officials warned that while world attention is focused on Kobani, Isis has been piling pressure on government troops in neighbouring Iraq, leaving the army in a “fragile” position in Anbar province between Baghdad and the Syrian border. US defence officials said that the main focus of the coalition’s campaign is Iraq, where there are capable local forces on the ground. However, officials voiced concern about the “tenuous” position of Iraqi troops in Anbar province, where the few remaining government-controlled areas have come under repeated attack. Some of Anbar province fell to Isis at the start of the year and most of the rest was seized by the Sunni extremists in a lightning sweep through Iraq’s Sunni Arab heartland in June. The area was the main battleground for the Sunni insurgency that erupted after the US-led invasion of 2003. Meanwhile, a television journalist in Iraq’s Salahuddin province has been killed by Isis. Raad al-Azzawi, who was a cameraman for Iraq’s Salahuddin network, was reportedly killed by militants on Friday in Tikrit. The militant group has beheaded a number of journalists in Syria in what it says is retaliation for US-led coalition air strikes. Reporters Without Borders said last month that the militants had threatened to execute Azzawi, a father of three, for refusing to join Isis. He was abducted on 7 September. http://www.theguardian.com/world/2014/oct/11/kurdish-fighters-resist-islamic-state-kobani |

Before Kobani resistance, Israeli government and president said they support Rojava autonomy and SK independence. When ISIS starts attacking Kobani and SK, they shut their mouth. I congratulate the member who said Israel is a double standard...saying one thing but doing another behind back. Sneaky indeed. Why has Israel kept silent? ISIS is a product of Mossad&CIA, and takes order from Mossad&CIA. Saudi Arabia, Qatar etc. are funders and send terrorists. The whole world vs Kobani! |

But from looking on how PKK vs SK supporters acts in protest and ohter Kurdish events,(Only APO and PKK flag, No Kurdistan flag, Only bji PKK and bji APO vs Only Ala rengin, Only Bji Kurdistan) is enough for me to know who is following the wrong path. And who told you that you are blinded by ideology? |
