Stranded on a barren mountaintop, thousands of minority Iraqis are faced with a bleak choice: descend and risk slaughter at the hands of the encircled Sunni extremists or sit tight and risk dying of thirst.
Humanitarian agencies said Tuesday that between 10,000 and 40,000 civilians remain trapped on Mount Sinjar since being driven out of surrounding villages and the town of Sinjar two days earlier. But the mountain that had looked like a refuge is becoming a graveyard for their children.
Unable to dig deep into the rocky mountainside, displaced families said they have buried young and elderly victims of the harsh conditions in shallow graves, their bodies covered with stones. Iraqi government planes attempted to airdrop bottled water to the mountain on Monday night but reached few of those marooned.

Most of those who fled Sinjar are from the minority Yazidi sect, which melds parts of ancient Zoroastrianism with Christianity and Islam. They are considered by the al-Qaeda-inspired Islamic State to be devil worshippers and apostates.
The dramatic advance of the extremist Sunni fighters has torn the ethnic and religious fabric of the country, with Christians and Shiites also uprooted from cities and towns. Advertisement
The Islamic States takeover of Sinjar, the first major setback for Kurdish forces protecting the countrys north, sent about 200,000 people fleeing, according to the United Nations. Some 147,000 have arrived in the semi-autonomous Kurdish region, flooding refugee camps.

Maybe the genius Samantha Power will intervene, after all, look at all the good her policies in Libya did.
The media is totally sympathetic with Obama and the Muslim Brotherhood.
“We are dealing here with a religion that worships the devil as its god.”
Not true, as the non-Muslim literature seems to suggest.
The Kurdish Regional Government has been making some airdrops, but they have few airlift resources, apparently they dropped 20 tons of food and water today. Pesh Merga is being pushed back, as ISIS now has serious weapon superiority, thanks to Obama insisting that any military equipment has to go through the al-Maliki government.
They figured that out long ago. They use these nifty ambulances.
And these.
....Yet NOT the same God as the Holy Bible. To many differences. Sorry to burst your bubble.
More and more I do believe that I am right and like it or not, the non-Muslims over time will come around to the same realization as well.
I was refering to Islam, in the previous posts that is the REAL religion of the DEVIL .
It is not our job to judge if they worship Jesus Christ.
They are still humans in need of supplies.
What else matters.
Matthew 5:45
That ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust.
I do pray for the CONVERSION of the Muslims to Christ.
But they need to also be WARNED:
John 8:44-47:
” 44 You are from your father the devil, and you choose to do your fathers desires. He was a murderer from the beginning and does not stand in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks according to his own nature, for he is a liar and the father of lies. 45 But because I tell the truth, you do not believe me. 46 Which of you convicts me of sin? If I tell the truth, why do you not believe me? 47 Whoever is from God hears the words of God. The reason you do not hear them is that you are not from God.
Obama is treating these people exactly the way Stalin treated the free Poles who rose up against the Nazis in Warsaw exactly seventy years ago this month. ‘Let ‘em die.’
“For the Lord is our judge, the Lord is our ruler, the Lord is our king; he will save us.”
Isaiah 33:22 NRSVCE
This and the previous website posted tells more about the truth about Islam which is not good.
When it comes to the horrible treatment the both the Iraqi Christians and Yazis have been getting, the fruit being produced by the Muslims is ROTTEN to the core.
