The first thing that caught my attention in this article from The Daily Mail was the byline. I wondered if this is the same Jonathan Krohn who spoke so eloquently at the 2009 Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC), as a 13-year old conservative. It is! He has since left the conservative camp, becoming a liberal, even though he shuns any political affiliation. OK, he's confused. He's young. He'll come to his senses. Now every bit of 18 he is working as a journalist (incredible in itself) for a Kurdish media company, and is the first reporter to document the horror on Mount Sinjar, providing photo and video of on-the-ground conditions on Mount Sinjar, where the Yazidis have been trapped without food and water. True to form, King Hussein's hesitation to act has been very costly, as some reports are that up to 70% of the 40,000 Yazidis trapped on Mount Sinjar have perished.
