Meet the Yezidi. Their religion mixes elements of Islam, Judaism, Christianity, Zoroastrianism and Mithrasism. They are primarily ethnically Kurdish and live in Iraq, Syria, Turkey, Georgia, Russia and Armenia. In Iraq they are hated and persecuted by Muslims and Christians alike. They are under attack. If it continues will we call it ethnic cleansing, genocide or simply ignore it because it isn't a "real religion"? My guess would be the later.
