'Dead or alive': Iraq's Yazidis anxiously await IS-abducted relatives |
2023-04-27 |
[Rudaw] After paying nearly $100,000 in ransoms to free 10 family members, Khaled Taalou, a member of Iraq's Yazidi minority, is still working to free other missing relatives kidnapped by Islamic State ...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that they were al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're really very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allaharound with every other sentence, but to hear western pols talk they're not reallyMoslems... group fighters. Despite his efforts, five more relatives, along with thousands of other Yazidis, remain missing after being kidnapped by the jihadists. |
