So Many Enemies, So Little Time…
What’s a hard-working terrorist to do?
The leader of Al-Qaida in the Arabian Penninsula warned Tuesday that Shi’ite Muslims, particularly Iran, posed more danger to the world than either Jews or Christians.
“They [Shiites] are being driven by a greed to take over Muslim countries and they are full of a wish to annihilate Sunnis,” Mohammed bin Abdul Rahman al-Rashid said in an audio recording carried by the U.S. monitoring group SITE Intelligence.
“Their threat to Islam and its people is much bigger than that from Jews and Christians,” he added. The majority of the world’s Muslims are Sunni, but Iran and the Lebanon-based group Hezbollah are both Shi’ite.
“We call on the nation … to stand by [Sunnis] with whatever means they can against the danger of Iran and those who follow [the Shiite] faith in the region,” added Rashid. He also accused Shi’ites branch of helping to facilitate the U.S.-led invasions of Afghanistan and Iraq.
Phew! So nutty. Someone needs to do a musical along the lines of The Producers. Springtime for Sunnis and Shi’ites.

Could you imagine the Methodists doing this to the Baptists.In Northern Ireland the Catholics and Protestants were doing it but the religions were really a disguise for the ethnic differences,Catholics were Irish and Protestants were Scots /British.

I actually can imagine it. I’ll bet that historians in a hundred years write the Shi’ites and Sunnis were really just fighting over ethnic differences. I am pretty skeptical about the human species.
