You may want to spend the rest of your life blaming Bush for Sunni Muslims killing Shiite Muslims. You lack the confidence to realize the fact that this Muslim war is establishing a better balance of power for the Shiite minority which has been brutally repressed by the Baathists in Iraq, the Salafi regime in Saudi Arabia, the Palestinians in Israel, and also in Lebanon. There is a much better future for the Shiites today, especially with the support of the Shiite government in power in Iran.

We all thought the Sunni AQ terrorists were out to get us. The Sunni AQ & Taliban is actually out to assume 100% control of the Shiites. They may have random thoughts on the hegemony of the whole world, but they are realistically focused on killing and terrorizing the Muslims in their own region. There are plenty of Shiite terrorists in Palestine, to be sure.

I think the motivation of Shiite terrorists struggling to survive is much different than Sunni fundamentalists killing innocent Shiites. Every act of Shiite terrorism has been motivated by religious intolerance. Shiite terrorism is limited to simple acts of violence towards their oppressors. The motivation of every act of Sunni terrorism has been focused the destruction of human life to maintain totalitarian control.
