Some gunman picked Yazidis out of a bus full of people and killed them in Iraq.

This just caught my eye because Yazidis were mentioned in the Lovecraft story "The Horror at Redhook."

And they are mentioned in my tale Yazidis Needed :D Yes they are hated by Muslims because of their worship of Lucifer. There are those who used the fact that Yazidis are ethnically Kurds to excuse the genocide against Kurds. In fact I have written on them on my blog with some interesting links to more info about them.

It's not really Lucifer, though.

It's the chief archangel, who other religions assumed just had to be the same thing as their chief archangel. But it's a peacock! A PEACOCK! Try reading "Paradise Lost" with that in mind. It's not jiving.
