Why would the Sunni Muslim Brotherhood ally itself with Shia Iran?

Believe me when I say this, there is no love lost there, in particular when you are dealing with conservative Sunni’s like the MB

I believe you are thinking in conventional terms. I don’t see a problem with that. It’s not unreasonable to do so.

It seems to me like a power grab. If you can have your fingers in ten pies, isn’t that better than five, even if you don’t particularly like the six rhubarb pies.

I’m no sage. I’m simply addressing what seems to me like an obvious planned regional series of uprisings.

Putting aside religious concerns, allows these folks to manipulate the process. Then they can either make adjustments later on, or simply be satisfied to have ten states that have a stronger power base than they would have had separately.

If the MB is smart, they’ll keep focused on wielding power, and avoid differences on dogma.

If you think that’s over simplistic, that’s okay. Perhaps it is. I don’t have a better explanation for what is taking place in eight to ten nations, all at once. I’m not a believer in spontaneous combustion across borders and throughout a region like this.
