"They show beheadings, crucifixions, or when they burn people, but they rarely show when they are raping a girl, or when they are training children in terrorist camps." Fr. Patrick Desbois

Father Patrick Desbois, a Paris-based priest who for decades has been researching the Holocaust and fighting anti-Semitism through his Yahad–In Unum global humanitarian organization, has in recent years turned to helping minority victims of the IS-led genocide in Iraq and Syria, specifically the Yazidi people.
Desbois told The Christian Post in a phone interview that IS, which he noted has also killed scores of Shia Muslims and Christians, uses a "very special" strategy to carry out its decimation of entire people groups.
"They dislocate the families, they take the newborn babies, and they put them in Islamist families," Desbois told CP, noting that the young children are trained as terrorists, and "forced to put bombs" on streets.
"The young girls who are virgins are selected by doctors and sold," he added, referring to the terror group's human trafficking and sex trade, which has seen many thousands of women and children sold to jihadists.
The men, on the other hand, are often shot in pits, he said, evidence for which are the many mass graves being discovered in territory newly liberated from IS' grasp.
