Muslims killing Muslims

I don't think I'll ever feel good about massacres such as these. Even though it's Enemies of Israel killing each other.

...a car bomb killed at least 40 people at a meeting of Sunni Muslims. The attack took place at the end of an all-night vigil to mark the first anniversary of the killing of militant Sunni leader Azam Tariq.

Police said a car exploded as thousands of mourners were leaving the gathering.

Last week, 31 people died in a bomb attack on a mosque used by Pakistan's minority Shia community.

Sectarian violence, it is called.

I call it Muslim madness. You wanna know what this "dispute" is about? It is about this.

The division between Shia and Sunni dates back to the death of the Prophet Muhammad, and the question of who was to take over the leadership of the Muslim nation. Sunni Muslims agree with the position taken by many of the Prophet's companions, that the new leader should be elected from among those capable of the job. This is what was done, and the Prophet Muhammad's close friend and advisor, Abu Bakr, became the first Caliph of the Islamic nation. The word "Sunni" in Arabic comes from a word meaning "one who follows the traditions of the Prophet."

On the other hand, some Muslims share the belief that leadership should have stayed within the Prophet's own family, among those specifically appointed by him, or among Imams appointed by God Himself.

The Shia Muslims believe that following the Prophet Muhammad's death, leadership should have passed directly to his cousin/son-in-law, Ali. Throughout history, Shia Muslims have not recognized the authority of elected Muslim leaders, choosing instead to follow a line of Imams which they believe have been appointed by the Prophet Muhammad or God Himself. The word "Shia" in Arabic means a group or supportive party of people. The commonly-known term is shortened from the historical "Shia-t-Ali," or "the Party of Ali." They are also known as followers of "Ahl-al-Bayt" or "People of the Household" (of the Prophet).

And I am wracking my brains for a way to blame this on the Jews somehow. Because, you know, THEY must somehow be responsible.
