Occupying the Dutch Parliment:

In London they shut down part of the underground: LINK
In the aiport (via Twitter)
Even at the Turkish Embassy
Turkey is using water cannons to disperse crowds and have refused to lift a finger to help the town despite it's border location. LINK
In Istanbul (via twitter)
In Germany: LINK (In german, found a link via twitter)
In France:
At the airport there
I also saw a few tweets about Canadian protest in-front of the UN building(?) but I couldn't find any pictures
But this might all be in vain, as reports from a hours ago said the Kurds had regained the center of the town.
Anyway, here is the most recent article I can find on the BBC about the situation LINK
ETA: Just realized some of y'all probably don't know that alot of the Kurds call ISIS Daesh. That will help with a few of the signs

Kurds seem to have good soldiers but apparently weapons that look like they are from the civil war.

This sucks for them.
Let me know when it poses a clear and present danger to the United States.
Until then, some financial support might be ok, if we're assured of recouping our expenses in the event of a victory and stabilization.

I would support the creation of an independent Kurdistan. Make them an ally, arm them, and assist them militarily.

However, residents of the nearby city of Grohl seemed unmoved by the loss of Kobane and seemed poised to benefit economically.

Give them a couple tactical nukes.
That should be modern enough.
