Iraqi Shia forces clash in Basra - 26 Mar 08

Back


The latest violence in Iraq has put extreme pressure on a ceasefire by the Mahdi Army - a ceasefire that has been credited with reducing the violence, not just in Basra, but across the country.

The Mahdi Army announced that the ceasefire is still in place.

But for how long? Owen Fay reports.

What's going on man, we are all Iraqis, we share same country & name, we both Iraqis, we should unite against Americans!

I can't stand sunnis anymore insulting shias and even criticize other religions. Even I'm a sunni, I always show respect to all religions.

I like the fact Shias are more respectful than Sunnis and also respect disagreements.
I look at Shias as brothers and sisters too.

It just sickens me that many sunnis insult them everywhere and that is why I might revert to Judaism. The authentic original religion.

Be very careful what you say. One day you will face Allah(swt) I hope then you can justify these comments.
