Sunni-Shiite Conflict in Iraq

At first it seems like the Sunni-Shiite conflict in Iraq is a war of religion


but actually the main force of this war is a struggle for power and control.
Gerges says that todays conflict is "driven more by a power struggle than a
religious war but sectarianism is poisoning the veins of Arab and Muslim
politics and threatening to escalate into an all-out war."

the characters of the Muslim comic strip. The first goal of this website is
getting kids to play and have fun while nonchalantly portraying the natures
of Islam. They also locate your position in the world to modify the game and
