13,157 Europeans were among the approximately 30,000 foreign terrorist fighters from over 86 countries that joined the genocidal terrorist organisation #ISIS 2014-2016.

Most of them (almost 4000) come from just five countries: #France, the #UK, #Germany, #Belgium, and the #Netherlands.

in 2014 ISIS had controlled 1-3 of Iraqi and Syrian territory, including #Mosul the second largest city in #Iraq. Between 2014/2019, ISIS killed tens of thousands of Iraqis and Syrians. Millions have become #refugees.

While the @UN investigation team said that #ISIS committed a genocide against religious groups of #Iraq and #Syria that did not conform to ISIS’s totalitarian definition of ‘true Islam.’, still no serious actions have been taken to establish an international tribunal.

Out of more than 13,000 Europeans who joined #ISIS, only 3 genocide convictions have been there so far. Recently, a Dutch citizen to be charged with enslavement of a Yazidi woman in #Syria. Here my interview with @TheNationalNews #YazidiGenocide

Just to put in perspective: while the war in Ukraine is still ongoing, in March 2023 the International Criminal Court (ICC) in The Hague issued arrest warrants for #Russian president V. #Putin.
But: what about crimes committed by ISIS? Still no tribunal?government.nl/latest/news/20…

The first trial for crimes against the Yazidis is about to open in the Netherlands. “We need Dutch government to take responsibility now because Dutch nationals contributed to the #yazidigenocide,” Wahhab Hassoo argued @MargheritaCapa3 @NLHelptYezidis
