KURDS vs THE NUSRA??? A WHOLE DIFFERENT TYPE OF FIGHT!





Yesterday I was reading about the battles taking place in Ras Al-Ayn between the PYD / Kurds / and units of Nusra Front and I couldn't help but wonder..... what if a fighting force that has a percentage of female fighters beats the mighty Nusra?????

How is that for a blow to your Islamic Fundamentalist male ego????

Now, its true the Fundamentalist have been facing female fighters from the West for the duration of the War on Terrorism, but there is a marked difference.

First off, these Kurd females are Muslim by religion or they claim to be!

Secondly, they are not "rear area / non combatant ... support troops..

The female members of the Kurdish units are skilled warriors who will kill with a knife, a gun or a stick if they get half a chance!

If you've never had the privilege to see them, trust me when I tell you they can hold their own and them some!

How would you like to be the Nusra unit commander and have to radio back to your superiors that you were being defeated by a fighting force with females members?

The Arab male ego is a fragile issue and the story of this event taking place is not going over well around the campfires tonight.

Ok, here is the real story inside of this story.

Nusra and it's followers discovered well over a year ago that Kurd fighting units are far different than twenty year old boys who wearing  sandals and hang out in coffee shops in Homs or Aleppo.

Kurds were practically born to fight and raised to shoot a weapon from the time they can stand.

Nusra and it's followers need to think more than twice before they start a protracted campaign to do battle with Kurds on what the Kurds consider Kurdish land!

Having said that, the strategic tactic of pressing the Rebels between an advancing Syrian/ Iranian / Hezbollah force and the warrior ethos of the Kurds is not a lost issue with  the leadership of Iran's forces.

Owning certain points on the map for the sake of re-supply or cutting off your enemies re-supply, is not a new tactic, but doing battle with two formidable forces such as the Kurds and the hybrid Syrian forces is simply a disastrous decision.

It's a decision that could cost Nusra and it's followers dearly, but then again, the FSA and it's supporters may fully support Nusra and it's gangs running full on into the buzz saw!
