Can you help with Analysis of sectatian warfare between Shite and Sunni?

Question

Also can you provide backgound and reference texts

Answer 1

Look up Mohammaads death on the internet. You will find that he left no "writing" as to who would be his successor.

This would have been proper for him to do, as he felt that he was a prophet, and no other prophet left behind orders as to whom the next prophet would be.

His followers had other ideas, and wanted a new leader and fought about who it should be. One side wanted the new leader to be from mohammaads genetic line, and the other side wanted it to be open to all followers. They are still fighting about this to this day.

Answer 2

Remember that the Shia and Sunni did not fight before the American invasion. Fighting between Shia and Sunni has helped relieve some pressure on American soldiers. Most of the fighting was created systematically by coopting the Shia to join in attacks on the Sunnis, which made the Sunnis see the Shia as coordinators and supporters of the aggressors who had invaded their country.

It is an irony that the divide and rule policy is so very obvious. Ironically the Sunnis had done their dirty work when Saddam was in power, who had killed many a Shia youth when he was in power.

Remember that before the invasion, inspite of Saddam Husain, the Shia and Sunni in Iraq had more intermarriage than in any other Muslim country in the World.

I have wondered often if it is possible that the same agencies first go kill some Sunni and then some Shia to help encourage fighting between the two sects leading to the division of Iraq and containment of the influence of Iran in the middle east.

Who gains when Shia and Sunni fight? Israel!! I rest my case!

Answer 3

Religious people are not fighting. Political people are fighting. O yes they call themselves a certain religion but that does not make them religious people.
