Yusef al-Qaradawi, who is based in Qatar and has been a leading voice supporting the Arab Spring, warned that Iranian Shia were trying to "eat" Sunni Muslims, who are a majority in the Muslim world.

 He referred to Alawites, the followers of the Muslim sect to which President Bashar al-Assad of Syria belongs, as being "worse infidels than Christians or Jews". He also used the deliberately contemptuous term "Nusayris" when talking about them.

 He was particularly critical of the roles played by Iran, which is largely Shia, and the Lebanon Shia militia Hizbollah whose name translates as Party of God but which he called "Party of Satan", in supporting the Assad regime.

The rift between Shia and Sunni gets worse and worse. Muslims are their own worst enemies.

But they aren't killing each other fast enough to suit me.

The rift between Shia and Sunni gets worse and worse.

I'm not seeing the downside, here.

The only downside I see is that the crazy Shia are out numbered by the crazy Sunni 9 to 1.
