US/UK allies attack anti-Daesh forces in Iraq, revealing a pattern of betrayal [VIDEOS]
Remember the massacre of Yazidis in Iraq in 2014? Well, they’re under attack again. Yazidi self-defence militias and their affiliates, who have organised to defend themselves from Daesh (Isis/Isil), have been resisting the new assault since 3 March. But this time, … Continue reading
Yazidis and Syrian Kurds and their allies under attack by Turkey and its proxies
The last 36 hours have seen major developments in the Middle East in defiance of directives issued by British and US-led Coalition forces. Turkish militias are attacking anti-Daesh (Isis/Isil) units near the Syrian city of Manbij. And at the same … Continue reading
Turkey hits new low: demands US cease supporting anti-ISIS fighters and threatens Yazidis

From genocide to resistance: Yezidi women fight back
Having suffered a traumatic genocide, Yazidi women on Mount Sinjar are now mobilising against ISIS… The old Kurdish saying “We have no friends but the mountains” became more relevant than ever when on Aug. 3, 2014, the murderous Islamic … Continue reading
Kurds fear massacre by Turkish military; Yezidi women join forces with YPJ to fight ISIS
No prizes for spotting the deliberate contradiction in the title of this story. Yezidi women, some of whom were held captive by ISIS but escaped, have now joined forces with the YPJ (Kurdish women’s militia) – their objective: to take … Continue reading

World ignores 1000s of Yezidi women captured, raped and enslaved by ISIS
It is estimated that in the ISIS-occupied areas over 4 million women are subjugated and enslaved. Several thousand of these are Yezidis, captured last August and held as concubines, sold as slaves, humiliated, raped and tortured. The world has stood … Continue reading
While ISIS preaches hate, in Rojava (Kurdistan) a feminist revolution is unfolding…
The UK Government and its coalition partners demonstrate remarkable ignorance of the political realities of what is happening on the ground in Kurdistan – either that, or they are knowingly prepared to sacrifice the Kurds, who have been at the … Continue reading
