Topic Reading-Vol.1153-6/8/2015

Dear MEL School’s Topic Readers,
How IS seeks sectarian war in Saudi Arabia
State, beliefs or tribes. Which of these factors is more fundamental, essential or influential to people in the Middle East and Arabian Peninsula? Who is trying to take advantage of these complex and controversial issues?
The majority of Saudi’s population, over three-quarter, is Sunni Muslim and the rest is Shia. The air campaign Saudi carried out in Yemen was aimed at Shia rebels.
Saudi’s archrival Iran is a Shia dominated country. ISIS or ISIL wants to present itself as the most dedicated force to push back against the advance of Iran's Shia allies and bombed two Shia mosques in May.
What is this cruel militant group intending to do? Will Saudi be capable of handling and containing this potentially ground shaking threat?
Enjoy reading and learning what’s going on in the Arab’s largest kingdom.
