If the Hezbollah are Shiites, and Syria's majority are Shiites, why is Iran, Sunni majority, helping Hezbollah and allying itself with Syria?
If we are helping the Shiites in Iraq against the Sunnis in Iraq, aren't we siding with the same party that composes the terrorist Hezbollah organization?
Are we in a conflict of interest in supporting any of the Muslim parties in Iraq? Is this a tough puzzle to crack?

I stand corrected: Iran is mainly Shiite.
Yet, with the religious denominations acting as political parties, should we be supporting the Iraqi Shiites when the Hezbollah AND IRAN are alligned with the Shiites? And, when I say Shiite, I mean the leadership, not the actual people who support the leadership...

Whether you are a Shiite or a Sunni should not be the issue. It is the general attitude of hezbollah that is under scrutiny. If hezbollah was meeting the needs of its people in a positive nature they would be respected. This is about civilizations . I use the word loosely. To be civilized is the issue. To respect persons right to live as they see fit is the question Violence just masks the issues.No one will deal with the real questions. Chaos keeps people confused so they can be taken advantage of. To obtain what does not belong to you, whether it is Lebanon, Iraq, etc. Lets start to deal with truths instead of Extremist Attitudes.

She's tender on terrorism. received't say Islamic terrorism even as it really is as a fashion to not offend muslims and takes severe quantities of Muslim money including radical muslim money from brutal Islamic theocracies exceptionally like Saudi Arabia case in point. She even has a woman operating for her that has ties to the muslim brotherhood, Huma Abedin. after all she helped ascertain the Benghazi attacks on our embassy became effective through not doing something about it. Terrorists do not have a lot to rigidity about from a hillary presidency.

Any muslims that share our common interests that are not lopsided.should be supported and this idea of not having diplomatic relations is not wise and counterproductive. You always need a line of communications to make deals.
I could strighten out your confusion easily but it would take too much space here to do so.
You made some very astute observations,but they can be explained thru a sequence of events that took place. And I understand your confusion.

because not all shiites are supporting hezbollah, and not all sunnis support whats going on right now. what we need to do is take our foot out of the middle east and let them fight it out.

It's not a tough puzzle when you stop trying to lump hundreds of millions of people together just because they follow the same religion.
That's like lumping all the Anglicans and Protestants and Presbyterians together, all across the US and Europe. Or lumping all the Catholics together all over the world, and assume they're all working together.
No wonder you can't make rational sense of it. It's an irrational over-generalization.

err!
Syria = Maj, Sunni
Iran = Maj, Shiites
Shiites + Sunni = Muslims (1 God, 1 Quran)
