Religious intolerance
Tuesday, April 22nd, 2008I find it really interesting when infighting in a religious group causes huge issues. Like the protestants versus the Catholics in Ireland. Really, the major tenets of your religion are the same, it’s just minor details.
Now, there’s a fight brewing between al-Qaida and Iran. Apparently, al-Qaida is mostly Sunni while Iran is Shiite. The Iranians, being the crazies that they are, have lately been trying to shift blame for 9/11 onto the Israelis. Of course, the whole thing must have been pulled off by Israel to make Arabs look bad. Plus, it really plays into the way Iran wants to view the world and how it wants to be THE powerbroker in the mideast.
Needless to say, al-Qaida is pretty proud of 9/11 so they’re having to wage a PR war of “Hey, we’re the ones who did 9/11! Don’t listen to Iran!” It’s really an odd situation.
I wonder what’s next… a terrorist attack on Iran? Hmm, they might blame that on the Americans.
