is part of the internal arabian war between Sunnis and Shiites, a war without end.....

 

well Iran is not an Arab country and this is the first time such things happen in middle of Iran in 20-30 years. Iran is/was probably the safest country in the middle east.

 

Today was a very sad day. I never saw such thing in Tehran in my lifetime (yeah we had MEK terrorist attacks but that was long time ago) I prefer to not judge until we know the nationality of the terrorists. that's very important. but that was about time until ISIS found a way inside Iran.

 

so far 12 deaths, mostly innocent civilians RIP :( and I hope such things never happen again, anywhere specially in my hometown.

There is a war between  Sunnis and Shiites, the first have Saudi Arabia like the "leader" and the Shiites has Iran like leader......ISIS are a Sunni extremist organization, for that reason i sayed what i sayed, the Sirias war and the conflict with ISIS are all part of the same thing: Saudi Arabia, ISIS and the most part of the Sunnis countrys in one side, Iran, Siria, Hezbolla, the Shiites groups of Irak and Yemen in another side.

For this reason ISIS wont atack any "sunni" target?, of course they do, in fact some sunni monarchys pay to ISIS to dont make nothing to them.

This is a good summary but things are not black and white like this. for example Hamas is a Sunni group. and some Sunni countries like Oman and Kuwait always had good relationships with Iran.

and I also don't believe all those new about Iran's influence in Yemen and Houthis, Iran is not that interested in Yemen.

 

and about today here people remember this comment from the Saudi Prince Mohammed bin Salman only a month ago.

" We will not wait until the fight is inside Saudi Arabia and we will work so that the battle is on their side, inside Iran, not in Saudi Arabia "

Are there still good relations between Iran and Hamas? As far as I know Hamas has broken with the Syrian regime and is supporting the rebels.

well things are apparently getting better with Hamas new leader Ismail Haniya. which is not a good new for the Iranian people in general, meaning they will spend/waste more money to Hamas.  I wouldn't say that if that money couple help the Palestinian people and their lives but we know it doesn't hlep much. mostly create more problems for them

Of course, is a sumary, there are many "greys" areas in our world.

Incredible declaration of the arabian prince......what are the repercussions in Iran?

    • Wow, Norway really wants nq after couple of horrible selections in recent years.    For some reason all love Serbia's song, but to me it's borderline (we've seen all the hype from Luke Black, and his final result).    Finland made the only right decision,    Italy - WTF? Like this song is fucking outdated. I don't mind when it's nostalgic, but this is just horrible song for Eurovision. How could you not send Ditonellapiaga who by far destroyed everyone with the staging?    Bulgaria - messy as hell, I expected more from Dara since I knew her beforehand. There are some catchy parts, but they did not sound cogesive at all.    Germany - great job, although public vote didn't like neither those songs neither Germany.

    • Watching replay of yesterday Krynica start and boy what a clusterfuck it was. One it was the most uneven course of the season so far and two there were multiple instances of one of the gates not opening. So they had to redo a couple of races.
    • missile intercepted near burdj alkhalifa     
    • Having a World Championships right after the Olympics is very underwhelming, but that is the world of curling and ice hockey  You would think skipping a year would actually make the WCH more valuable.
    • Iran denounced "war crime" in the UN    
    • They will replace them with team of blue star 
    • I mean, it's undoubtedly done for some shady reason like distracting from the Epstein files or something, but whatever the reason, at least Trump and his buddies finally did something actually...kind of good. Most angry reactions come from terrorist organizations or questionable dictators and that's about it.
    • Chase jackson with a national indoor record of 20.44 at the american trials.Zach bradford- wins the men's pole vault with 6.01. 
    • I used to have the cassette of the official music of the 1984 Games at home. I don’t see it anymore so I probably donated it to charity about two weeks ago after cleaning house.
