ISIS Massacre of Christians Not "Genocide," Obama Administration Insists Maybe you don't know the facts??? Of course, you can tell Brumey anything... Kerry: ISIS Is Committing Genocide Against Yazidis, Christians and Shiite Muslims by F. Brinley Bruton , Andrea Mitchell, Abigail Williams and Cassandra Vinograd nbcnews.com John Kerry: 'Daesh Is Responsible for Genocide' 1:40 Secretary of State John Kerry said Thursday that ISIS has been committing genocide against religious minorities in the Middle East — just the second time the executive branch has used the term in relation to an ongoing conflict. The formal designation comes days after the House passed a nonbinding resolution by a 393-0 vote condemning ISIS atrocities as genocide. "Daesh is genocidal by self proclamation, by ideology and by actions," Kerry said in a televised address, using another name for the Sunni militant group. "We must recognize what Daesh is doing to its victims." "Naming these crimes is important but what is essential is to stop them," he added. Related: One Yazidi's Battle to Chronicle the Death of a People He enumerated a list of atrocities against Shiite Muslims, Christians and Yazidis at the hands of the Sunni extremists that led to the designation. "Daesh is also responsible for crimes against humanity and ethnic cleansing directed at these same groups and in some cases also against Sunni Muslims, Kurds, and other minorities," Kerry said, noting that it was impossible to know the full scale of the extremists' atrocities. Kerry took care to highlight the plight of the Yazidis, a Kurdish minority ISIS branded as devil worshipers and who have been killed and starved by the thousands.
