"And I have found both freedom and safety in my madness, the freedom of loneliness and the safety from being understood, for those who understand us enslave something in us. But let me not be too proud of my safety. Even a Thief in a jail is safe from another thief. "

Kurds Drive IS Jihadists from Syria's Kobane- Naharnet

Kurdish fighters ousted the Islamic State group from the Syrian border town of Kobane on Saturday, two days after the jihadists had seized several neighborhoods, a monitor and activists said.
IS's bloody attack on the town had left at least 174 civilians dead as well as 70 combatants, the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said.
"The Kurdish People's Protection Units (YPG) took back control of IS positions in Kobane," the Britain-based group said.
"The YPG were able to take back the town's boys' high school, where the last of the IS fighters were holed up, after setting off explosions."
The jihadist group entered Kobane at dawn on Thursday, seizing several buildings in the town's south and southwest.
