A Yazidi woman from Iraq who was held captive for months as a sex slave by ISIS spoke about her harrowing ordeal Sunday on CNN alongside her lawyer, famed human rights advocate Amal Clooney. The international human rights lawyer and the wife of actor George Clooney is trying to bring attention to the plight of Nadia Murad and other Yazidi women who are routinely abused at the hands of the militants. Clooney appeared on Fareed Zakaria's CNN show on Sunday alongside Murad, who recalled a harrowing ordeal that began when ISIS gunmen arrived in her village in Iraqi Kurdistan nearly three years ago. 'Early morning on August 3, 2014, they attacked us,' Murad said. 'Nearly 6,500 women and children from the Yazidi were abducted and about 5,000 people from the community were killed during that day. For eight months, they separated us from our mothers and our sisters and our brothers, and some of them were killed and others disappeared.'

Oh damn, I forgot the link......
Well, fight against ISIS and don’t arm middle eastern rebels.
But don’t we want our fair share of rape-ugees in America? Aren’t stories like this going to make it more difficult to import large numbers of this human crud?
It’s too bad Amal’s sex slave wasn’t able to appear at the Clooneys’ $350,000 a head fund raising dinner with Hillary Clinton
They could have discussed Hillary and Obama’s foreign policy of supporting ISIS to take down the government of Syria..
No kidding. Users.
I have no problems with allowing Kurds and Yazidis in as refugees. They are not going to be future terrorists, they do not want Sharia law implemented here in America.
I like the Kurds, but they are Muslims too. Let them carve their own country out of Turkey and let’s go from their.
Syrian Kurds are doing a great job of ending ISIS. As we speak, the final assault is underway in Raqqa, Syria.
Have already heard that our Marine units are delivering howitzer round effectively on enemy fire positions. Pound Sand.
Is Amal the Arab version of Gloria Allred?
you are right this is the type of group that is meant to get asylum not 15- 40 year old possible IsIs fighters.
If this wasn’t some form of propaganda story, it wouldn’t appear on CNN.
Make sure to interpret what you read in that light.
Anyone seen Elizabeth O’Bagy recently?
i was honestly expecting a picture of Amal standing next to a donkey, goat, or sheep
Kurds are not all Muslim. And they don’t persecute other religions.
“We’re maxed out on non-natural born for the foreseeable future”..........
I agree but look at all the potential future “presidents” being overlooked. (sarc)
“Sex slave” is a social construct.
Who are we to judge?
The klintons all ready had her.
Coming from a background in motorcycling, I always thought Amal was a carburetor (carburettor in the U.K.).
liberals just love the un.
un out of the US!
