# Muslims have finally stamped their stupidity via this sectarianism of a thing.

Is Iraqi moon (sighting) for Sunni is different from that of the Shia ni?

# If moon is sighted in Iraq, why did the shia refused to celebrate Eid on Sunday? And if it did not sighted, why would the Sunni chose to ignore their local moon and switch to "Saudi's"?

# If the Iraqis have been able to come together as one irrespective of their madhhab to combat and dealt seriously on the wahabi terrorists, why would they part in a mere moon sighting?
