Dietrich Claims he took this Photo of a Yazidi Girl when he was in Iraq in 1988.

"A girl from the minority Yazidi sect, fleeing the violence in the Iraqi town of Sinjar, rests at the Iraqi-Syrian border, August 13, 2014. I remember the scene well. It was the day that I arrived at the Iraqi-Syrian border crossing of Faysh Khabur. With shocked, sunburnt faces, men, women and children in dirt-caked clothes were struggling in temperatures of over 45 degrees Celsius (113 Fahrenheit), waiting patiently for local Kurdish aid."

This a clear and flagrant infringement of copyright
According to Boudlal, the images were taken not in Sinjar or Ninevah, as Dietrich claims, but at the border crossing of Faysh Khabur, which lies in Dohuk, part of the semi-autonomous Kurdish region in northern Iraq.
Dietrich is also incorrect in claiming that the ancient city of Ninevah was located near Sinjar. The Yazidi were fleeing Sinjar to Syria and stopped about 100 KM Northeast of Sinjar. The ruins of ancient Ninevah are located near Mosul which is 100 KM East of Sinjar and 100 KM Southeast of Faysh Kabur. https://mapcarta.com/12539148
Here are other images of the girl with mother and siblings that were taken by Boudlal:
Boudlal is an award-winning photojournalist who worked for Reuters at the time. The photo, one many Boudlal took that day in 2014, was featured on the cover of Jewish Journal. Feb 9. 2017.
Dietrich continues to make the false claim now (2021), three years later, despite overwhelming contradicting evidence.
