Pope Francis has said that this is genocide and has decried the scandal of silence and the scandal of indifference in this regardagain. another reason why action by this body is so essential. In addition to that. I want to leave you with one quick story. I represent the largest Yazidi community in America. I have been dealing with this community for many. many years. many of whom resettled in Lincoln. Nebraska. because they were given special visas to come to America because they worked side by side with our soldiers during the Iraq war as translators. Because of the grave threat that they were under. they were given special privileges to become citizens here. and many settled in my State of Nebraska. my hometown. Lincoln.
