Sunni is what might be called orthodox or traditional Moslems

Shia are a secondary outgrowth that have differing, more modern, beliefs.

More modern means perhaps 200 years after Mohammed

The literal war is hundreds of years old

Given the deaths of generals and ranking officers and the firings of many more, one must wonder if the Russian command structure still intact knows how to use the nuclear weapons.
