U.S.-led air Strikes hit Islamic State positions around the Syrian border town of Kobani on Friday in an apparent bid to pave the way for heavily-armed Kurdish Peshmerga forces to Enter from neighboring Turkey. The predominantly Kurdish town, besieged for more than 40 days, has become the focus of a global war against the Sunni Muslim insurgents, who have captured expanses of Iraq and Syria and declared an Islamic "caliphate" straddling the two. Its fighters have slaughtered or driven away Shi'ite Muslims, Christians and other communities who do **t share their ultra-radical brand of Sunni Islam.
