This is a bad quality video but it chronicles the climax of the Shi'a revolt against Saddam and the state of the people seeking refuge within the mosque at Kerbala.

I have no idea whether this video is legitimate but it does look it.


Meanwhile a suicide bombing in Pakistan targets Shi'a before Ashura and kills 11.

Eleven bodies and 35 wounded people were brought to Peshawar's Lady Reading Hospital, Aziz Khan said. The city's police chief, Malik Saab, was among the dead, said provincial police chief Sharif Virk.


Meanwhile yet another expert compares the Sunni/Shi'a stand off to the Thirty Years War like I've done numerous times.
