Its not a huge sunni-shia beef. The fighting is between all religious groups involved including Christians and Druze. This is a political conflict and there's no need to turn it into a sectarian as some idiots on this forum have decided to turn it into.

To my brothers and sisters in Islam, the first and foremost characteristic of the Anbiyyah (alaihumus salam) was forebearance. Look beyond the propaganda and realize that this is another great game battle. Transcend the microscopic and see whats happening at the macroscopic level.
