 Uh, yeah, but where does this stand in the face of the Zionist/Christian/Western Crusader infidel threat?
You seem to work under the assumption that Sunni and Shiite, and Persian and Arab have never united under one cause for the sake of greater Islam. This simply isn't consistent with history.  As abc said, of course they will rip each other apart once they can.  I'm guessing the Germans, Italians, and Japanese would've done the same had they managed to wipe out every single Jew and conquered continental Europe and most of Asia.  Is that a consolation to you?
