Supreme Knight Anderson also reported that neither the U.S. government
nor the United Nations have offered financial assistance to respond to the crisis
of internally displaced persons (IDPs) and urban refugees.
The State Department also received a nearly 300-page report, submitted by the Knights, that detailed the brutality which Christians and other
minorities have experienced at the hands of ISIS. The report was credited by officials as having been influential in the declaration of genocide made
by the U.S. Department of State and the U.S. House of Representatives in mid-March.
After submitting the report, Supreme Knight Anderson was invited to testify in Congress before the Tom Lantos Human Rights Commission to
suggest a path forward for the victims of genocide.
