Iraq: Genocide Against the Yazidis, Perpetrated by Al Qaeda Thugs-in Chief Talabani and Barzani

Dr. Muhammad Shamsaddin Megalommatis
In an earlier article "Yazidis. Historical Landmarks of Millennial Persecution", I republished an article on the ´Ezidi Genocide´ written by the Yazidi intellectual and political activist Mirza Donnayi. In the present article I republish the article´s second part that focuses on the period after the US invasion of Iraq. This is based on a document prepared by Rasho Khudayda Ydio, Dindar Jejo Mado and Amer Heyder Darwish. It underscores the need for immediate UN intervention in Iraq and highlights the Yazidis´ right to autonomy, self-determination and/or secession. The term ´Ezidi´ represents another form of transliteration of the national name of Yazidis in Western languages.
