Gone are the days when IS was able to seize territory in both countries with relative ease. Its newfound problems, including a loss of oil revenue, raise questions about the extent to which it will be able to continue recruiting fighters who want to be with a winner. "ISIS has run a very effective psychological campaign to intimidate its rivals and attract support and recruits," said Faysal Itani, a resident fellow at the Atlantic Council, using an acronym for the extremists. But now, he said, the need to maintain its reputation is limiting the group's options. This is particularly true in Kobani, where a pre-emptive IS withdrawal in the face of U.S.-led bombings from the sky and ethnic Kurdish fighters on the ground could prove too Continue reading at: News from The Associated Press

What an article!
The article wants us make believe that ISIS is exhausted and faces its end just because Kobani is not seized by them. But the ME forum is and the global medias are full of reports about what ISIS does elswhere.

And they all mostly report the same thing. IS terrorists in Iraq are in retreat except in a few strong Sunni inhabited areas. In Syria the IS Terrorists have had over 60 percent of the oil and gas related revenue producing sites bombed and destroyed.

Fact is that ISIS is not beaten and that its strongest enemy, the Syrian government, is ignored in the media.

You mean to tell us that with all the bombing missions no convoys, no supply lines were caught in these bombings and ISIS is just going on its merry way as before.

As for annoying, don't you think it is annoying how you constantly bring up Assad and his army as the White Knights in this game? In fact, whatever Aris (who is respected by so many because of all her experience in the Middle East) says anything negative about your hero, you are up in arms and quick to contradict her. Anynow, this one's for you.

I have not argued that ISIS has been beaten. I argued this:

"IS terrorists in Iraq are in retreat except in a few strong Sunni inhabited areas. In Syria the IS Terrorists have had over 60 percent of the oil and gas related revenue producing sites bombed and destroyed."

Try to respond to what I actually write, could you

The Syrian government is not Daesh's strongest enemy. Assad could not do to the terrorists what the US led coalition has done and will do to them.

Assad could do and he did and does and continues to do that.
