Urge Your Elected Officials to Protect the Kurds in Syria & Iran!

The Middle East is a diverse region home to many different ethnic and religious minority groups. One such ethnic minority group is the Kurdish people, the largest stateless people in the entire world, whose population of roughly 40 million people remains largely dispersed throughout modern-day Iran, Iraq, Syria, and Turkey. The Kurdish people played an instrumental role in supporting the United States in the fight against ISIS. In recent weeks, the Kurdish people have faced an onslaught of violence by state officials and Islamists in both Syria, whose government has conducted a range of military operations in the north, and Iran, whose government has killed thousands of pro-democracy protestors, many of whom are of Kurdish origin.=

As violence throughout the Middle East continues to engulf and target Kurdish communities throughout Syria and Iran, it is important to voice our support for the Kurdish people. Write your elected officials here and demand that they use their good offices to guarantee protection for the Kurdish people, especially in light of the fact that thousands of other minorities (e.g. Alawites & Druze) have been killed throughout Syria in recent months.
