It's really a shame that the two different Muslim sects can't work out their differences. How does the world think the Muslim world can work out their differences with the rest of the world's religions, as bullshit as religion is, if they can't sort out their own religious bullshit?
Probably the best thing to do is to let them kill off each other (especially in the prisons) as best they can and whoever is left, let the world's other religions kill them.
"....arrested for doing just at her...."
Hogarty, learn to proofread your goddamned "articles"!!!
Thanks surfin jesus; duly noted and corrected.
And I agree with Snoopy about what a shame it is that two Muslim sects can't get along; but if one regards the history of Catholic-Protestant violence over the last 500 years or so, or the schism between the Roman and Orthodox Christian churches that goes back even longer, I doubt we'll see any quick end to intra-relgion violence anytime soon.
