Незаживающие раны: Долговременные последствия геноцида езидов и необходимость международного отклика

Езиды — это этническое и религиозное меньшинство, коренное для регионов, включая Турцию, Сирию, Иран и Ирак. В августе 2014 года террористическая организация ИГИЛ начала геноцидную кампанию против езидов, которых они называли “поклонниками дьявола”. Зверства включали массовые убийства, похищения и широкомасштабное сексуальное насилие, в основном направленное на женщин и девочек. Несмотря на очевидные доказательства, усилия по привлечению виновных к ответственности оказались недостаточными.

The Hidden Faces of Evil

Recently the news about the ISIS leader “Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi” surfaced on the internet, after his wives and daughter gave an interview on Al-Arabiya. Al-Baghdadi has allegedly been killed in a US operation in northwestern Syria in 2019, however, during his time as an IS fighter, he has held more than 10 Ezidi children and women as slaves in his household. According to the narratives of the wives and his daughter; the Ezidi girls and women were treated “well”.  This is a concerning statement which Ezidi Times finds crucial to address.

Er det realistisk muligt for Ezidierne at vende tilbage til Sinjar?

I år i august vil det være 10 år siden, at IS angreb Sinjar, begik grusomme forbrydelser og tvang flere hundrede tusinde Ezidier til at forlade deres forfædres land. Indtil i dag rapporteres det, at mellem 100.000 og 200.000 Ezidier bor i internflygtningelejre over hele Mellemøsten. Det irakiske repræsentantråd har vedtaget Yezidi Survivors Law (YSL), som havde til formål at bringe retfærdighed til Ezidierne, men også til Turkmenerne, Kristne og Shabaks. Alligevel er ingen irakisk domstol endnu blevet dømt for at begå folkedrab mod Ezidi-folket. På trods af dette er der håb blandt Ezidierne, der bor i internflygtningelejre, om at vende hjem til Sinjar.

Is the return of Ezidis to Sinjar realistically possible?

This year in August it will be 10 years since the IS attacked Sinjar, committed heinous crimes, and forced several hundred thousand Ezidis to leave their ancestral land. To this day it’s reported that between 100 000 to 200 000 Ezidis live in IDP camps across the Middle East. The Iraqi Council of Representatives has adopted the Yezidi Survivors Law (YSL) which was aimed to bring justice to Ezidis but also Turkmen, Christians and Shabaks. Yet, to this day, no Iraqi court has sentenced anyone for committing genocide against the Ezidi people. Despite this, there are hopes among the Ezidi people, living in IDP camps, to return home to Sinjar.
