ISIS claims responsibility for 130 dead in blasts at Shiite Mosques in Yemen

IN some ways this is as serious for Shias as 9-11 was for the U.S. and will likely inflame the sectarian war much more than any single thing so far except for ISIS massacring Shias and Yazidis and Christians by the thousands in Iraq last summer. So, this is a disaster for the whole world in this sense. Also, ISIS by taking credit for this is trying to embarrass Al Qaeda who would have loved to have taken credit for these blasts. So, don't underestimate just how serious this is on multiple levels.

This will only inflame the sectarian war between Sunnis and Shias many times more than it already has been so far. The repercussions of events like this will be decades in retributions that follow in all directions.
