Tribes and Orthodox-Muslim Friction

It's all B.S. Religion is the opium of the un-educated masses and is exploited as such. It has great value but is just another tool of political mobilization in the wrong hands and a pliable audience.

Education, free press, unfettered and free trade, good laws, strong courts, and respect for institutions. Hard to achieve. Always worth it. The only answer.
