Closed petition Declare the actions of Daesh against minorities as genocide

Closed on 25 August 2016

Daesh is committing genocide against those who do not subscribe to their mis-interpretation of Islam. Notably against the minority: Christians, Yezidi, Turkmen, Shabak, Kurds & Shia. The UK must follow the example of the European Parliament and formally acknowledge the genocide, so it can be stopped

Genocide is any of the following acts committed with intent to destroy, in whole or in part, a national, ethnical, racial or religious group, by:
-Killing members of the group;
-Causing serious bodily or mental harm to members of the group;
-Deliberately inflicting on the group conditions of life calculated to
bring about its physical destruction in whole or in part;
-Imposing measures intended to prevent births within the group;
-Forcibly transferring children of the group to another group.
