#Yazidi are an ethnoreligious group of Iraq.
Surprised that there is still a non-abrahmic religious group in Middle east?
If the situation continues as it is atm maybe they won't exist anymore.
ISIS presently & MusIim kings in past this group has faced it all

But this isn't 1st genocide the community has faced.
The history of their genocides goes as back as 637 CE at the hands of various MusIim communities over the years-- Kurdish Tribes, Ottomans,Persians,Arabs & now the ISIS

As in it isn't enough that the community faces nightmare & barbarism from ISIS the moderate musIims aren't any less.
This is what a Moderate MusIim has to say about #Yazidi :Devil Worshippers
The very reason they get killed by ISIS.

The modern Genocide started on 3 Aug 2014.
The ISIS took over their ancestral homeland and unleashed it's wrath on Yazidis
According to various sources which includes ISIS themselves around 200k Yazidi fled Sinjar.

Yazidi leaders called for help from International community. But to their dismay anyone has hardly done anything to help them back then and even today http://www.naharnet.com/stories/en/143946
And India is no less when it comes to not helping the presecuted minority.
But then what happened in 2019 #antiCAARiots can't really blame the GOI either

And inspite all the 74 genocide the community has stuck together and stands strong
They will not give up because that's the real defeat.
But the biggest blunder will be if we leave them. If we forget them or let them become a memory http://shorturl.at/kHIOQ
