Earlier this year, the United States dismantled its foreign aid agency, USAID, cutting billions of dollars in humanitarian and development support in Iraq. This decision has already left some of Iraq’s most vulnerable—like the Ezidi people of Sinjar—at risk of losing critical services essential to their survival and recovery.

O Comitê Diplomático do Movimento das Mulheres Livres Ezidis (TAJÊ) lançou um apelo urgente ao Presidente do Iraque e a importantes organismos internacionais, pedindo a identificação de 19 mulheres ezidis queimadas vivas pelo ISIS em Mossul, em 2016. O movimento também exige que essa atrocidade seja oficialmente reconhecida como um ato de feminicídio.
Das diplomatische Komitee der Ezidischen Bewegung Freier Frauen (TAJÊ) hat einen dringenden Appell an den irakischen Präsidenten und zentrale internationale Organisationen gerichtet. Es fordert die Identifizierung von 19 ezidischen Frauen, die 2016 in Mossul von ISIS bei lebendigem Leib verbrannt wurden. Zudem verlangt die Bewegung, dass dieses Verbrechen offiziell als Femizid anerkannt wird.
Дипломатический комитет Движения свободных езидских женщин (TAJÊ) направил срочное обращение к президенту Ирака и ключевым международным организациям с требованием установить личности 19 женщин-езидок, сожжённых заживо боевиками ИГИЛ в Мосуле в 2016 году. Движение также настаивает на официальном признании этого преступления как акта феминицида.
Ezidis can learn the vital importance of preserving their sacred faith of Sharfadin. Justice and recognition require courage and unity—not just from within the Ezidi people but also through building solidarity with other ancient peoples facing similar struggles. Though the wounds run deep, hope remains in the power of cultural survival and the determination to secure a future where the Ezidis’ dignity, heritage, and rights are fully respected and protected.
Zara’s recent actions expose not just a troubling detachment from her Ezidi heritage, but a blatant disregard for the dignity and struggle of the people to whom she owes her very identity. In an era where the Ezidi people are still recovering from genocide and fighting for recognition, Zara has chosen not to stand with them, but to turn her back entirely—trading ancestral truth for political relevance and shallow applause. Her repeated shifts in self-identification—from Armenian to Russian, and now opportunistically Kurdish—suggest not evolution, but erasure. Even worse, her public alliance with individuals who have openly blasphemed the sacred tenets of the Sharfadin faith crosses a moral line. This is not neutrality—it is betrayal.

While many peoples throughout history have formed, merged, created languages and religions, and then gradually dissolved into larger populations and states, the Ezidis remained loyal to their traditions and faith, preserving their identity.
Since the 2014 genocidal ISIS attack, the Ezidi people still face a devastating and existential crisis. Most of the focus has been directed towards the atrocities committed against the women, and unfortunately, the fate of the abducted Ezidi boys is rarely discussed. It is unclear why this horrendous part of the genocide campaign receives so little attention. Perhaps no one knows they are still alive. But one fact remains: these Ezidi boys have come to hate us — the Ezidis — because ISIS has indoctrinated them to do so.
Det er bizart, uuddannet og et tegn på meget lav IQ, hvis folk tror, de kan beslutte en gruppes etniske identitet baseret på politisk bias. En Ezidi identificeres gennem sin etniske, religiøse, kulturelle og sproglige identitet.
Det är bisarrt, okunnigt och ett tecken på mycket låg intelligens att tro att man kan bestämma en grupps etniska identitet baserat på politisk partiskhet. En ezid identifieras genom sin etniska, religiösa, kulturella och språkliga identitet.
Il est absurde, ignorant, et signe d’un QI très bas de penser que l’on peut déterminer l’identité ethnique d’un peuple sur la base de préjugés politiques. Un Êzîde s’identifie par son identité ethnique, religieuse, culturelle et linguistique.
Het is bizar, onwetend en een teken van een zeer laag IQ als mensen denken dat ze de etnische identiteit van een volk kunnen bepalen op basis van politieke vooringenomenheid. Een Ezidi wordt geïdentificeerd via zijn/haar etnische, religieuze, culturele en taalkundige identiteit.
Es ist bizarr, ungebildet und ein Zeichen von sehr niedrigem IQ, wenn Menschen denken, sie könnten die ethnische Identität eines Volkes aufgrund politischer Voreingenommenheit bestimmen. Ein Ezidi wird über seine ethnische, religiöse, kulturelle und sprachliche Identität definiert.
It is bizarre, uneducated, and a sign of very low IQ if people think they can decide the ethnic identity of a group based on political bias. An Ezidi is identified through their ethnic, religious, cultural, and linguistic identity.
Murad Ismael, a prominent Ezidi activist and co-founder of the Sinjar Academy, is facing an arrest warrant issued by a court in the northern Iraqi province of Nineveh. The warrant follows his outspoken criticism of Iraq’s Minister of Migration, Evan Faeq Jabro, and the Ministry’s handling of the ongoing crisis faced by Ezidi internally displaced persons (IDPs).
