This may be true, and on the other-hand, there are some folks out there that don’t want the Kurds to be respected.
I’m not sure how much of this I’m buying into.
The Kurds shielded the Yazidis from being eliminated, and allowed fleeing Assyrian Christians to enter their safe zone. Wait and see if this story is true.
But But But
the Kurds are GOOD GUYS
They never purge the non-Kurds from villages in areas they conquer- right?
There has been a concerted effort over decades to keep the Kurds from gaining independence. The effort has included misinformation, out right lies, and genocide. I’ll believe this article when pigs start flying.
I’m calling Bull-shit on this story. The Kurds have sheltered the fleeing Christians & Yazidis who had escaped the ISIS advances. The Yazidis ARE KURDS (their native language is Kurdish) who follow a religion other than Islam.
As the Kurdish forces have liberated territory from ISIS, they have been assisting Christians & Yazidis to return to those liberated territories. One thing the Kurds have actually had zero tolerance with are the ARAB MUSLIMS who had cooperated with ISIS and, in many cases, participated in atrocities with ISIS forces. I don’t blame the Kurds for sending those monsters packing. They’re lucky more is not done to them in reprisals.
The Kurds are, after all, Molsem and derive their worldview from the same book that fuels ISIS.
Muslim Kurds are willing to protect Yazidis and Christians, so long as they follow the rules of Dhimmitude. No weapons allowed.
