Politics and Strange Bedfellows

An anti-Wahhabist Shi'ite cleric is killed in Iran; the Iranian government condemns his murder. On matters of principle, I hate agreeing with Iran. But outspoken Muslim opponents of Wahhabism are simply too few. On the other hand, such statements coming from a Shi'ite might actually be counterproductive - it is Sunnis who need to stand up against perversions of their faith.
