Peter you couldn't be more right, the Sunni and Shia are like the Hatfields and McCoys there from the same neck of the woods but they hate each other with a passion that has no equal......Why we bother with these lunatics is beyond my comprehension, the reason of course is black gold texas tea as jed clampett and other such notable hillbilly millionaires call it !!! I had a thought instead of trying to come up with alternative solutions to our insatiable need for this oil, we should be doing all we can to help rid the middle east of this troublesome liquid, the sooner we do this the quicker these crazies can get back to doing what they do best and that is of course killing each other off........Ah religion you have to love it, nice chatting with you, but now I have to go out and jump in my muscle car and race up and down in my pasture and do my part in ridding the world of oil...........screeeeeeeech .............
