I wish to start a petition at this time and say that we send our deepest condolences and prayers to the people of the Yazidi (Ezidi) community that are suffering as a result of the recent events in northern Iraq. There have been over 500 people murdered this past month, and are now 4000-5000 hostages, mostly woman and children, in grave danger of being treated as sexual slaves and raped, as well as 300,000-400,000 displaced people. Many of these go without shoes on their feet and barely enough food and water for their survival. This is a great humanitarian crisis!
We ask our government and the other governments of the world to continue to give the highest priority to the safety and care of the Yazidi people of from the terrorist group calling themselves ISIS.
