I consider Shia and Sunnie different tribes. Do they not live together and believe in the same god?

That is a tribe. The Jews are a tribe. I consider Alawite a subtribe of shia and Coptic Christians a sub tribe of Christians. The Christians are a tribe.

What news reports say is that all the tribes are coming together. People are picking sides.

The ME is going up in flames from full blown tribal civil war and they will fight for ideology, land and resources.

Nothing we can do but help where we can, but we must not do a lot of fighting except defensively.

And we are going to need to deal with Putin.
