If it wasn't for the Kurds and the Yazidi, I wouldn't care too much about ISIL

It's my opinion that if ISIL had allowed the Yazidi to flee like they did with the Christians in Mosul and had they refrained from attacking the Kurds in Iraq and Syria, we and the other nations wouldn't be bombing them right now.
