Rejected petition Protect ethnic and religious minorities in Iraq from genocide

More details

We the undersigned call upon the UK Foreign and Commonwealth office to take decisive and immediate action to compel the United Nations to establish safe havens in Iraq.

This is needed to support the thousands of innocent ethnic and religious minorities in Iraq who are currently facing the threat of starvation, murder, rape and even genocide by the Islamic State extremists.
