No Yazidi Refugees Allowed.

I do not understand this policy - the Yazidi population in Syria and Iraq being decimated by ISIS - beheaded, shot by the thoudands and Yazidi women sold in to slavery.

Poland taking those that find a way out, Britain, and a few other countries.

U.S. will not allow them in and the State Dept. refuses to comment. Turkey turning away fleeing Yazidis at the border - sending them back to a certain horrible death.

I smell a rat - Turkey wants to keep the Kurdish Yazidis in line and U.S. wants to play nicey with Turkey (we also just removed our missile batteries stationed there).

Meanwhile, what are a few hundred thousand dead Yazidis worth?

For whatever reason, despite the 300% increase in immigrants here in the US from the middle east, Yazidis don't make the grade. I can't think of another group that so desperately needs asylum.
