Akin, perhaps, but much-much more serious in recent times (apart from Ireland).
genuinely, nobody either side of the border bar perhaps, Adams and some of his mob, inbred bogger and jackeen gobshytes, Paisley and his mob, and some die-hard orangemen actually give a shyte about what shade of religion you are in Ireland.


But back on topic, the Sunni/Shia split has been intensified over the last 150 years, especially since the rise of the House of Saud and their perverted form of Wahhabism. Seriously the House of Saud has far more to answer for in a lot of things than say Iran or Syria, including the first Gulf war, the rise of Saddam, the Iran-Iraq war and the rise of the Taleban, Taleban scholars were all Saudi educated, returning to Afghanistan after the end of the last civil war, and eventually taking over.
Wahhabism is also responsible for many if not all of the steps backwards Islam has taken regarding women, religious and poltical freedoms.
