Your solar feathers, flying free
Help us all to understand
This wayward beast, the ape called man."

#Iraq 's PM has ordered the reconstruction of a village where the Islamic State group carried out one of its worst atrocities against the #Yazidi community nine years ago. On 15th August 2014, #ISIS fighters separated the men in the village from their families, killing hundreds of them. In a stmt issued on the 9th anniv of the #Sinjar massacre, Mr al-Sudani said the reconstruction was intended to honour the people of the village and underscore the right of Iraqis to live safely and in dignity.

Nine years ago today #ISIS #IS #Daesh captured #Sinjar and the #Yazidi #genocide started - if you are not familiar with it, please watch Nobel Peace Prize laureate #Nadia #Murad 's interview on BBC Hardtalk: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YRbHxsPLmkg

RT @nadiainitiative: We are appalled and alarmed by the emergence of a hate speech campaign targeting the #Yazidi community in #Iraq. It is reminiscent of language used by ISIS and traumatizing for survivors. We call on the authorities to act before it escalates into physical violence. https://t.co/PdEGF3hQCL

Oggi ho visitato la valle di #Lalish nel nord dell'#Iraq dove si trova il più importante tempio degli #Yazidi.
Ho incontrato i loro sacerdoti e alcuni esponenti di una comunità che ha subito un vero e proprio genocidio da parte di #Daesh.
Doveroso ricordare il loro sacrificio.

Easy way to tell if you're being fair or #antisemitic: If you speak about #Jews and their right to live safely as a free people in their own homeland in Israel just like you speak about the same rights for #Inuit, Australian #Aborigines, #Kurds, Black #Africans, #Arabs, #Métis, #Yazidi, then you're fair. But if you single out Jews alone as not having the right to have a nation in their homeland, then that's #bigotry and unfair

@TimInHonolulu #Turkey has a history of #genocide. They murdered north of a million Armenians during the Armenian Genocide (1915-1917). The #Kurds are in real danger.

RT @nadinemaenza: #Turkey has learned that if they target & kill #Yazidi genocide survivors in #Sinjar regularly, it becomes normalized with little outrage.

These war crimes with impunity have created a monster that will continue to overstep. The US & intl community must stand against this now!

Con ese reconocimiento, el @Congreso_es recuperaría alguna de sus esencias.
