The Sunnis and Shi'a and Arabs and Persians have had FOREVER to figure their shit out.....but while the Christians had the Reformation and grew out of their sectarian violence, the Muslims haven't had their Religious "eureka moment" they haven't stood up and said "Oh I see clearly now, even though you are Persian and I am Arab we DON'T have to fight, we can be brothers and celebrate our religion differently and celebrate our cultures differently"


I await the day that happens though....Persians and Arabs were as mean to each other as they ever were to Christians or Westerners.......they had slave Armies which is why they vastly outnumbered the Greeks and Romans and I think hell if they feel so strongly about the Crusades even to this day I am sure they feel strongly about the ancient times as well.


It is in the best intrests of the World and those societies that they learn to get along....and how and when that happens no one knows
