I imagine they'll attract more sympathy if they avoided stoning any more teenage girls.

 The Ancient Yazidi religion pre-dates
 Christianity, Islam and Judaism, and they worship Melek
 Taus, the peacock angel who is identified with Shaytan, the
 Arabic for Satan. Currently, the Yazidi (Yezidi) are in the
 news for being persecuted and murdered by "ISIS"
 (Jees! what a name for Islamist militants!). Like Hindus,
 the Yazidi believe in reincarnation, and incorporate Sun
 worship and the beliefs of Zoroastrianism and Sufi Islamic
 mysticism.
 I hope the 50,000 Yazidi Kurds trapped on a
 mountain in northern Iraq can be saved and given
 humanitarian assistance.
