I realize a lot of people don’t know the difference between Sunnis and Shiites – I only have a vague understanding – so I’m going to do some research and make an FAQ on the subject. Dean Barnett did an FAQ yesterday, but he only focused on how those differences as they affect things today. I want to delve a bit deeper to give people a better understanding of the two sides because I know many of you are like “I wouldn’t convert to Islam even if my life was threatened!” but is it a Sunni or a Shiite you’re refusing to become? It would probably be helpful to know.
I don’t give a rat’s ass what the differences or similarities are. I wouildn’t convert if my life depended on it, and of course, in the long run our lives do depend on it. We are at war with Islam and it is only going to get worse. Lock and load.
Well, Ali was not to follow ol’ Mo. One crazy ssems to be enough. And I do not believe that there is an Imam living in a well in the middle of Iran. So, I am not a shi-it. I meant to drop the e.
Nor am I some sort of wahabbi raging nut job, thinking that Gabriel came down and gave ol’ Mo a ride on his horse into Heaven so that 72 perpetual virgins could hump him for eternity.
That is the dumbest religion, ever. I am including Kabbalah and Scientology in the mix. It reads like some horny 7th century bully could never get his pimply-ass laid, so he convinced a bunch of other equally worthless dirtbags to start a religion (although I bet he considered it a gang).
And all that has really progressed, huh? How f-cking retarded are you if you blow yourself and 20 of your countrymen/women up to try and kill one israeli who is driving by, and oh by the way, gets maybe a scratch? I am so hoping that this religion darwin’s itself out pretty damn quick. They seem to be accelerating the pace now that they aren’t trying to suicide bomb using a match and a bag of fart-wind.
What kind of muslims were those in Disney’s “Aladdin”? They seemed like a nice bunch, except for Jafar. He was a jerk. I bet they were Druze, what with all the mysticism & all.

I’ll have to include that in the FAQ. That girl in the movie certainly wasn’t dressed in a Burkha.
Druze! Hah! That is classic! They are like the Pentecostals of Islam.
I read up about this some time ago, and all it really has to do with is who each side believes it the true heir to Mohammed’s “throne”. Shi’ites believe it was one dude, Sunni’s believe it was another dude. All these years upon years of bloodshed between the 2 factions (even though they still believe in the same principals). Seems kinda retarded right? Exactly. I guess if we’re fortunate enough in the end though, they’ll blow each other up and we’ll either have no one to fight, or no one to protect. Win/Win
I think the Sunnis males enjoy butt-sex with each other and young boys where the Shiites prefer donkeys and camels for same–
Difference is, you gotta lead the Shiites more… ‘less of course you got a BLU-82… in which case it don’t matter much WHERE you aim…
We towelheads were Christian long before Mo came and buggered up the Middle East. For a good time, go visit the Sufis. They always put a unique spin on Islam.
I am only intersted in knowing how the two sects’ head removal methods might differ.
Who cares! you get virgins with both when you die…. dont ya?
Who cares? Just so long as they both hate Jooos!
What kind of muslims were those in Disney’s “Aladdin”?
That was Al-quida Alladin and Jihad Jasmine. Alladin didn’t wear a vest stuffed with C-4 either, but that’s just the PC pinkos under Eisner (I bet Walt has been spinning in his cyrogenic cell for the last two decades).
Sunis seem to be the most violent, so we should wipe them out first, but the Shiites aren’t exactly our friends either. Kill ’em all and let Allah sort ’em out.
See you guys later down at the AlluahAk Bar
Is it that one group has a sunni disposition and the other has a shiitey outlook?
While both groups pray to Eddie “The Big Ragu” Mekka, the Sunnis don’t recognize Maj. Anthony Nelson as the legitimate master of Jeannie, and demand that she be returned to The Blue Jinn.
They are both FAB! We just need to get the Joooos in-line and everything will be hunky-dorey!
