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.
Today, at @Yazda, we joined @SinjarAcademy, @Free_Yezidi, survivors, and fellow community members to commemorate the 11th anniversary of the Yazidi genocide and honor the victims at Capitol Hill in Washington, D.C. We deeply appreciate everyone who attended and stood with us…




I stand firmly with the #Druze people of Syria. As they face the threat of brutal violence by terrorist groups, the international community must not turn a blind eye. We cannot allow another tragedy like the #Yazidi genocide of 2014 to unfold. The time for action is now—before…

About to film an episode of @albasheershow with @ahmedalbasheer1 on how to Free Iraq from Iran. Tune in soon!
Among the 32 Yazidi genocide victims identified were the remains of my friend’s brother, @haiderelias, who dedicated a decade to tirelessly supporting survivors and victims. My deepest condolences to Haider and the families of these 32 victims. ◼️Photos credit @Ezidi24
On February 22, 2025, the remains of 32 Yazidi victims, tragically killed by ISIS in 2014, will be returned to their families, after being identified by the #Forensic Department in Baghdad, they will be laid to rest in Sinjar with full respect to Yazidi #religious traditions.…
Yezidis continue to receive the remains of their loved ones, while those responsible for the genocide are granted amnesty.This injustice prevents healing& closure. Until the harm is addressed based on humanity, not status, these acts will persist& violence will spread globally.💔

We hope his Holiness recovers soon as he plays a crucial role in making peace a global priority.
🚨 BREAKING NEWS: The Vatican has announced that Pope Francis’ condition has worsened, now diagnosed with a polymicrobial respiratory tract infection. Recent tests reveal a complex clinical picture, requiring an extended hospital stay for the 88-year-old Pontiff in Rome.…
Ten years after the genocide, the situation in #Sinjar remains dire, with little attention or support. The local government in #Nineveh has done nothing for #Sinjar, failing to initiate any projects despite receiving substantial #funding from Baghdad. Most homes remain in ruins,…

في 2015، قامت امرأة #سويدية منضمة لـ"داعش" باحتجاز تسعة من الأقلية الإيزيدية بسوريا بينهم ستة أطفال وعاملتهم كسبايا وعبيد والآن أدانتها محكمة #بستوكهولم بارتكاب جريمة الإبادة الجماعية وجرائم ضد #الإنسانية وجرائم حرب جسيمة. p.dw.com/p/4qK2k?maca=a…

Can you imagine over 200,000 #Yazidis living in displacement camps for nearly 11 years, just #miles from their homes yet unable to #return? Despite their resilience and longing to rebuild their lives, they remain trapped in #uncertainty, abandoned by a government that has failed…

We remain committed to not stop working to holding genocide perpetrators accountable everywhere. Thank you, Sweden, for this significant step toward justice for survivors. #Yazidi_Genocide @BBCWorld search.app/3h82jaTkDH7vaE…
Some of us survived genocide, while others did not. Those who survived have had to endure its lasting consequences. Many of us lost family members, while others were separated and resettled in different countries. In my case, my family ended up in three different countries, and…

When I look at this photo, I see Yazidis in Iraq walking toward an uncertain future. Nearly 11 years after the ISIS genocide, little has changed. Thousands remain displaced in IDP camps, 2,700 Yazidi women and girls are still missing in captivity, most mass graves remain…

Congressman @RepJoeWilson, I’ve been following you on X for a while, and we need more leaders like you. Your voice represents those who are voiceless. Keep up the great work in advocating for a Middle East free from violence and the persecution of minorities.
Grateful to be honored by these Syrian American patriots today. Raise your head up high, you are a free Syrian! ارفع راسك فوق انت سوري حر
