The Yazidis fled to Mount Shingal, where they had no food and no water. Shaker went behind enemy lines, relaying their precise locations to CENTCOM in Washington and even infiltrating their ranks to rescue the taken; but he would come to risk everything in the search for his beloved. Soon, he established a cross-border, underground rescue network that would save the lives of thousands of civilians, all while feeding intelligence to the US military--and landing him at the top of ISIS's execution list. 600 10 Jeffrey, Shaker. 610 20 IS (Organization) 650 0 Yezidis|vBiography. 650 0 Yezidis|xCrimes against|zIraq. 700 1 Holstein, Katharine,|eauthor. 914 MID.b26405313 994 C0|bCKE
