I was reading history of ottoman empire and noticed that iran was always troublesome for its sunni neighbour. Whenever ottomans used to be engaged in wars in europe, at the same occasions iranians used to attack adjacent ottoman territories to weaken them and divide their forces. When ottomans were in wars with russia, iranians sided with russia. And when they conquered azerbiajan, they forcefully convert sunni azeri turks into shias. Nowadays it is headache for arabs. Their support for bashar ul asad is shameful, they dont think as muslims but as shias.
It is noteworthy that biggest traitors and backstabbers in the history of muslim hindostan , mir jafar, mir sadiq and shaja ul daula were of irani origin.
Our country's Founder was a Shia too no?
Obviously the Ottoman-Persian rivalry is an old and ancient one. They both had their rises; and they had their falls and eventual demise.
But lets not talk about betrayals and such when it was certain Arab "groups" who betrayed the Ottomans in favour of the british! Oh what a great liberation they brought to the region!
