Is someone attempting to ignite a Shi'ite and Sunni civil war? I don't understand the religious differences, but the recent attacks on Shi'ites would seem to indicate that. How would Iran and Al Qaida fit into that fight? What about Saudi Arabia? What is going on?

Absolutely that is what they are trying to do - ignite a civil war between the Shi'ite's and the Sunnis. No question there.

Is someone attempting to ignite a Shi'ite and Sunni civil war?That seems to be the case. You may recall a few weeks ago, the U.S. found a 17 page document by Al Qaeda linked terrorist Zarqawi. Zarqawi's goal of starting a civil war between the 2 (Shiites and Sunnis) was detailed in this letter.
As of today, it's obvious that although the letter was found and exposed, terrorists have embraced the plan.
