It is interesting to note that not all Shias like each other, either, and there are groups in Qom that no doubt hate some of the ones in Iraq. That would be like saying all people in America who call themselves Baptists approve of what all the other Baptists are doing. I could easily see the mullahs in the hardline political circles of Iran supporting the death of those who they think are a threat or a disgrace to what they want Shia Islam to be....

Ah, the strange bedfellows radical politics makes...

The Democrats DESPISE Bush because he's a Christian and so they are against ANYTHING and EVERYTHING that Bush wants to do.

They probably won't care. The Persians regard themselves as superior to other groups there (although the Saudis, being the tribesmen of Mad Mo, are "more equal" than anybody else in the ME), so the Iraqi Shiites are not that big a deal to them.
