Huge turnout, only a few voters blown up. The Sunnis must be pissed.

shiites run iran but they are persian shiites not arab shiites... there is a major difference
syria has fallen under the influence of iran through convenience and iran has a shiite agenda. hizbolla is a shiite group using religious fundamentalism as their motivator not secular baath ideals
syria's top level administration is sunni baath but shiite religious fundamentalism is rampant in the actual population, and certainly dominant within their close ally iran
the vast majority of the worlds muslims are shiites, sunnis had disporportionate power recently in a handful of arabic oil states but they are quickly losing it to fundamentalist shiites
