[QUOTE="av8torntn, post: 284025, member: 8259"] The Sunni if I remember correctly did their march about one week later and they wore shoes. It was on a much smaller scale. It went from tens of thousands of Muslims walking with no shoes on while they were beating their own backs with whips (all Shina). They would carry their colorful flags so it was easy to tell them apart. On the Sunni week there were only several hundred and they wore shoes and seemed to be on a more relaxed pace.They would carry their black flags. Up until that point I thought the hardcore Muslims were the Sunnis mainly because of AQI. These marches were unguarded. There was largely no violence. If there was a Sunni-Shia civil war these people would have been easy targets. One more question why did they allow women to make this march? It seemed like it was probably sixty or seventy percent women. I remember thinking this was odd. They allowed the women to wear shoes and they just had to stay behind their husband. Every other thing that had to do with the Muslim religion the women were not allowed to participate. [/QUOTE]
