the Iranian IslamoNazis try to murder (or hire others to murder) as many innocent Christians, Jews, and other human beings as they can...
just like how Saudi Arabia does
just like how Mohammed taught them
they BOTH look like pretty damned “good” Moslems
The truth is that the sauds are their biggest cheerleaders.
**Do I care what Sunnis think about Shiites? No.**
I certainly don’t give a shiite!
:)
6 of 1, 1/2 dozen of the other. We still owe yous an ass kicking from the 70’s.
Zoroastrianism was the state religion of pre-Islamic Iran.
the religion is a religion of hate and exclusion. when ever the Muslim religion gets to the point that there is no other religions in the area to go after it starts to turn in on itself with factions fighting over who the real Muslims are once it gets rid of organized factions to the point there is only one group it starts to devourer itself accusing those within of blasphemy and other crimes. the philosophy behind Islam is evil you can tell by the fruit it bears.
If Iran and Saudi Arabia start a shooting war with each other, good! It would solve a lot of problems for our security.
We no longer need Middle East oil. This week drillers discovered a new energy field in Reeves Co. in far West Texas with over 3 billion barrels of oil and 75 trillion cu. ft. of natural gas. We can be energy self sufficient in a very short time, and the Middle East can kill each other to their hearts’ content.
Shiites don’t consider Sunnis Muslims, nor do Sunnis consider Shiites Muslims. Just like some Pentecostals and Baptists don’t consider Roman Catholics Christians.
Iran vs. Saudi Arabia - that would be fun to watch!
Only hope we could stay out of it.
Might even go nuclear with Saudis buying some Paki warheads while the Iranians deploy their own.
The Iran-Iraq war was a very good thing
Wolf Blitzed is worried about job loss
People who don’t like me taking each other down.
All good!
In a way they are fighting proxy war now in Yemen. Read just last week that fighters in Yemen launched a rocket toward a base near Mecca. If they get a bit more range I assume they will target the place to “show that the arabs can’t protect it” or some such.
But the Shiite/Sunni death match has been ongoing for the past millennium and a half and for some bizarre reason that totally escapes me, the United States, far from sitting back and watching, has been actively siding with the Sunnis.
It is quite amazing to watch how Saudi money has turned the US military into Sunni Janissaries, the Christian mercenaries used by the Sulatn to fight his enemies because he was too lazy and incompetent to fight them.
Everywhere we look in this Islamic civil war we see the US intervening on the side of the medieval, Arab, Bedouin Sunnis fighting against the Shias, or to put it more specifically the Persians, it is absolutely crazy.
If the US really does feel the need to intervene in this civil war, and I see no reason why it should, it should at least be backing the more civilised, educated, western-minded Persians.
But no, the US backs the House of Saud every time, the same people who flew the planes into the WTC (it wasn’t the Iranians who did that, it was our good friends the Sunni Arabs).
The closing statement limited the Sunni community to “Ash’aris, Maturidis by belief, followers of the four jurisprudential schools of Sunnism (Hanafi, Maliki, Shafi’i and Hanbali) and followers of pure Sufism in terms of ethics and chastity. Any other sects are not included in the Sunni community.” This clearly indicates that, in the participants’ view, Wahhabism is not considered part of Sunni Islam, but rather an emerging innovation (Bid’ah) in Islam.
The closing statement also restricted the big Islamic schools to deep-rooted religious institutions in “Al-Azhar University (Cairo, Egypt), University of Al-Quaraouiyine (Fez, Morocco), Al-Zaytoonah University (Tunisia) and Hadhramaut University (Yemen).” The statement did not mention Islamic centers and religious institutions in Saudi Arabia.
The conference provoked Wahhabi scholars and Saudi officials who considered it a conspiracy from kuffar (nonbelievers) against Saudi Arabia, and an attempt to make a coalition between Saudi Arabia's enemies - Shiites and Sufis in particular. The attendance of Ahmed el-Tayeb, the grand imam of Al-Azhar in Cairo, at the conference sparked the anger of many Saudis. Prominent writer Muhammad al-Shaikh tweeted, “Tayeb’s participation at the Grozny conference that dismissed Saudi Arabia from Sunnism will force us to change our behavior with Egypt. Our country is more important, and (President Abdel Fattah al-)Sisi’s Egypt shall go to hell.”

Actually, Wahhabism is much like Khomeini's doctrine of Velayat_e Faghih. Both are innovations or inventions. The former an innovation of Muhammad ibn ʿAbd al-Wahhab (a sunni saudi preacher), and the latter, invented by Khomeini, derived from Shia Islam. Both doctrines have their foundation in Islam, which makes them rotten to the core.
Thankyou. It’s refreshing to read an intelligent and erudite comment in this thread :)
This sorta mudslinging from the Saudis has been going on for years, if not decades & centuries.

Though the Saudi’s compadres, aka mullahs in Iran, have publicly called Zoroastrians “fire-worshipping pagans” too. So, no credit to Team Saud for innovation.
At least The mullahs regime allows churches, synagogues, temples, and free worship for non-muslims in Iran, including Yazidis. That’s more than anyone can say for Saudi Arabia.
Thanks
