In episode 579 of #CutTheClutter, Shekhar Gupta delves into the historical discord between Shias and Sunnis, and why the timing of the latest Sunni protests in Pakistan is odd.
I am not encouraging Islamophobia, it is a prejudice that needs fierce opposition but if this isn’t plain stupidity in the name of Allah, then what is?
Despite growing passenger volume, 11 out of 14 carriers reported losses in 2023-24. IndiGo recorded profit of Rs 8,167 crore, which reduced to Rs 7.253 crore in 2024-25.

The ball started rolling globally differentiating between sunni and shia is from early 1980 ‘S viz the revolution in Iran. The Shias preferred democracy against the Reza shah pehalvi’ S regime. The counter part of dictators at Saudi were to SOS if their Family rule were opposed. They have taken Wahabism the Islamic cult as their saviour and increased their tentacles across the world with one of their concept of terrorism. It not only opposed shiasm but also their family rule saved under the shelter of religion. The money of Saudi played a vital role in propogation resulting in large number of people attracted to Wahabism, obviously the opposition to shiasm. The recent conflict at Pakistan against shiasm is the conspiracy hatched by the Saudis and his allies under the bosses at Washington. The Iran and the Shia sect. globally is the main threat to the family rule of saudi and other dictatorial allies in middle east. India being the rich heritage of cosmopolitan society did not fallen to the hands of US policies or intervened in the sectarian politics. Thanks to the Indian Govt. & its policies which made bilateral relationship at its best with all Middle Eastern countries and Iran. The article of Mr. Gupta is worth appreciating and screen shot the facts of Islam and International politics depicting the cause of disturbances erupted against Shias. Hope I tried the best to demonstrate the fact and cause. Talaat Sajjad Advocate Hyderabad India
Punjabistani army wants to hold control of the artificial country by hook or by crook – motivating people to hate on Shias is better than to let sub-nationalistic feelings to spawn. It’s better that Sunni Sindhis/Pakhtuns/Balochs hate Shias rather than Punjabis. So there you go – a set of people bred on hate since 7th century AD.
weak article, full of conspiracy theories, mostly writer has no idea… Sunnis are not 15%, Shia are. Just old inaccuarate misperceptions rolled into a new article. Muslims dont see themselves as Sunni Shia, most is just politics, army does not control everything and no its not a message to Iran and on and on….
Yeah no one is believing this stuff anymore
Silly article…………not worth reading !!!
