Morocco Cuts Diplomatic Ties with Iran

(Rabat, Morocco) Last month, an adviser to Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei said that Iran had sovereignty over Bahrain. In a show of Sunni Arab unity against Shia-dominated Iran, Morocco's King Mohammed sent a letter to Bahrain's King Hamad Bin Isa al-Khalifa.
"We deem these remarks absurd and they contradict blatantly international law principles and rules as well as the values of peaceful co-existence and good neighbourliness advocated by our tolerant Islamic religion," Mohammed wrote to Hamad.
In addition, the Kingdom of Morocco broke off diplomatic relations with Iran after "some inappropriate language" was reportedly directed toward Morocco by Iran.

The controversy encapsulates the belligerent nature of the current Iranian government along with the ever-stewing conflict between the Sunni and Shia factions of Islam. It also demonstrates that radical Muslims don't need infidels to express hatred. Followers of the religion of peace have a perennial less-filling/tastes-great type of mindset to justify killing each other when infidels are not around.
