In Iraq, under Saddam Hussein and his Baath Party, Sunni Muslims held most of the power despite that they represented a small minority of the population. Since Saddam was deposed the new regieme consists mainly of Shiite Muslims. The sectarian violence in Iraq is pretty fierce.

In 1979 Ayatollah Khomeini and his followers successfully defeated the Shah and replaced the secular government with an Islamic theocracy and argued that that the real issue in the Islamic world was to restore religious-based government. It regarded the particular nation-states as less important than the type of regime they had. This primarily Shiite view was later complemented by what was its Sunni counterpart.

Rooted partly in Wahhabi Sunni religiosity and partly in the revolutionary spirit of Iran, its view was that the Islamic nation-states were the problem and that the only way to solve it was a transnational Islamic regime -- the caliphate -- that would restore the power of the Islamic world.

The Sunni-Shiite fault line had become venomous. Tensions not only in Iraq, but also in Afghanistan and Pakistan were creating a transnational civil war between these two movements. Iran was positioning itself to replace al Qaeda as the revolutionary force in the Islamic world and was again challenging Saudi Arabia as the center of gravity of Islamic religiosity.

This week may be the beginning of a new trend. Dr. Ayman Zawahri (za WAH ri), is a leader of Al-Qaida, (Sunni Muslims). He has declared, as may other Muslim militant leaders, that the conflict between Hezbollah and Israel meets the conditions for jihad fee sybil Allah and that it is incumbent for all Muslims to join the fight regardless of their differences all are brothers in Islam.

All Muslims want to destroy Israel. It is their common enemy.

On Friday, July 28, Hezbollah's leader, Nazrallah, attended a conference in Damascus. Also in attendance were Hamas leaders Khaled Meshaal and Mussa Abu Marzouk as well as the Palestinian Jihad Islami chief Abdallah Ramadan Shelah. The Palestinian terrorist leaders were invited in their capacity as commanders of the second front against Israel in Gaza. The fact that Syrian President Bashar al-Assad Assad called the meeting in his capital at Damascus, indicates that he and the other participants feel confident enough to decide on a further escalation of the violence.

No one wins in a war. Property can be restored, but even a lifetime is not long enough to resolve grief over a lost loved one.

Since Muslims, Jews and Christians believe in the messiah, maybe praying for the messiah to come and bring lasting peace before the world destroys itself would be a win-win-win solution.

I feel that the majority infantrymen were courageous and dependable, which merits appreciate. But I feel there must be a procedure to enable infantrymen to make use of their possess brains and make a decision to not move to conflict in the event that they think the purpose is fallacious since presently I feel the warriors and absolutely puffed up and nurtured in some way in order that the enemey of the govenment is probably the most despicable and inhumane factor which demands to be eliminated. The reality is capitalism teaches us that cash and energy is the essential factor to existence and not anything must are available in the best way of that, even of that implies mendacity and going to conflict to get oil, or plotting an atrocity to provide purpose to furthur move to conflict in order that the worlds assets may also be controled and the powerfull international locations would possibly stay powerfull. Currently within the center east there may be one more idiology 'ISLAM' that is a bigger option to capitalism and identical to communism used to be attacked so is islam. It begins with slandering the idiology and portaying it within the media as evil and unjust, and so on, if this doesnt paintings then capitalism is compelled upron the international locations which taking place now. Communism of fully fallacious identical to capitalism, however there can most effective be one and so there might be fighjting. Most folks have the feel to understand this, however its the small powerfull folks that manipulate the federal government and the media who've the say

That would be good for western and eastern countries, Because they will be busy killing each other that they will leave all other country alone and terrorist acts will stop in countries like Israel, India, USA, UK, Spain.

Eventually only people will survive civil war will be Woman, elderly and children. So, we can teach those children to leave peacefully rather then fighting. The fact is that region is root to the all major problem in the world.
