It seems no sooner we are at odds with one group when something changes and we are turning everything upside down again.I just hope the immigrants are friendly.

My nephew who worked for several years (after his stint in the US Marines) in the oil fields of Saudi Arabia is now no longer there. He is now in the US, hopefully for good with his wife and son. It pleases me to see him safe at home and not flying back and forth every three months.

A very interesting read. It is often easy to forget that there is a hostile split between Sunnis and Shias.

There ought to be a big mother who would make those boys
sit in a chair until they learned to get along peaceably. Warrior 1, you can't get up until #2 gives permission. And #2, you can't move until #1 says so. Then the wait would begin to see whether they'd both cut off their noses to spite their faces, or learn to respect the other guy's right to his own way of sweeping the corners.

I don't know why we westeners don't just leave it to the tribes to fight amongst themselves. They always have, they always will.
