Let me give you a Christian link to see the Sunni-Shiite conflict from the Biblical viewpoint. Both accounts should correlate... If you understand the old Persian Empire. You can see what is happening today to fulfill this prophecy:

This is not going to be a short conflict, imho...look for Turkey, Pakistan, and other influences to be a part of this Iran-Iraq fight> Sunni-Shiite sorting out of old hatreds, if this is Daniel’s prophecy of end times.
WE think we can only take certain Republican approved links to prove a point, when in fact some of the less religious links (not liberal but historical facts) that stick with history and when compared with the Bible we see there is the picture of what prophecy we are witnessing. As long as they are not trying to fulfill a political agenda.
Thanks for all the information. I know what you mean by the Hatfield and McCoys. And then with both sides starting with ‘S’, my mind gets addled. I start hearing that old Abbot and Costello ‘Who’s on First’ routine in my head. And this is no laughing matter.
I appreciate the time you’ve taken to identify and send me the different type of links. That’s just the way I like to approach learning. I am off for a while to read.
