Interesting thing is that Hezbollah sides itself with Syria, a secular regime.
Assad is an Alawite, another religious group the Sunnis want to kill.
Assad and the Alawites are tolerated by the Shiites and are supported by Shiite Iran.(and Infidel Russia)
Many say the Alawites are a sect of Shia Islam, but after reading about the Alawites I think they are as much Muslims as Mormons are Christians.
They don't quite fit the description, in my opinion.
Then throw in the Infidel Russians and Americans into the mix over there and it really gets complicated. -Tom
