I attended a moving Yezidi Genocide Commemoration organized by @Free_Yezidi @YazdaOrg @SinjarAcademy on Capitol Hill this morning. Thank you for raising awareness on the ongoing persecution facing Iraq’s religious minorities more than a decade after the ISIS Genocide.
It was a beautiful day on Capitol Hill to confront a dark anniversary—11 years since ISIS’s attempted genocide against the Yezidi people. Grateful @Free_Yezidi, @SinjarAcademy, & @YazdaOrg for the opportunity to say a few words. We must never forget—and we must continue to help.
The #Yezidi #Yazidi community is approaching the 11 year commemoration of the #YazidiGenocide perpetrated by #ISIS #Daesh . 11 years later, many Yezidi families remain in difficult conditions, and more than 2500 Yezidis remain unaccounted for.
2014 - ISIS - slaughtered my dad - raped my little sister - brainwashed my little brother - burned my grandma alive - fed my mom her own baby’s meat - destroyed my house and temples - left me no hope - I will remain sad forever I’m Yazidi people.
Good reporting from @jenanmoussa on the attacks by uniformed #Syria forces against unarmed #Druze civilians. This is what happens when #alqaeda #Daesh #ISIS members run a government.
Honored to speak at the Yazidi Genocide Commemoration this Tuesday, July 22 on Capitol Hill hosted by @Free_Yezidi, @SinjarAcademy & @YazdaOrg. Join us in urging U.S. support for a community still struggling to recover from the ISIS genocide. RSVP here: tinyurl.com/yvt7s54n

Alarming. Is this the new #Syria that the USA and the West is supporting with end of sanctions?

Good investigation by @CNN @tamaraqiblawi into violations of former war criminals now in leading positions in the new military of #Syria .
Our new investigation looks into a key commander in Syria’s new army. Sayf Boulad Abu Bakr was sanctioned for links to the trafficking and the abuse of Kurdish women. We heard horrific testimonies from survivors as well as a former member of Boulad’s militia, and we analyzed…
