Kobane Day.

          It slips out of the headlines as the sexual exploits of the rich an famous take its place, or some celebrity's divorce is posted as more important. However it is still there, the heroic and long running struggle of the people of north and east Syria. A struggle that is marked with victories, setbacks, blood and the force of the fascist regime in Turkey. They deserve our unstinting support and solidarity.
