The media rarely mentions Shia or Sunny terrorists semihere because both groups have terrorists and although they are fighting each other they are also fighting the non-Muslim world.

They fight each other because they both interpret the Koran in different ways and each thinks that their way is the right way. It is simply a conflict of opinion that has escalated into combat. Christianity has learned to live with all the various factions. You don’t see the followers of the orthodox Russian Christians fighting the Roman Catholics or the Church of England followers. Buddhist doesn’t fight Hindu and neither attacks other religions.

The world conflict is a conflict of ideology or religion if you like with some politics thrown in. But then the politics of a Muslim country are controlled by the Islamic religion so it really all boils down to religion.

However it is still down to a few Islamic hotheads and not Islam as a whole.
