The mosque belongs to a Sufi order – a mystical branch of Islam whose followers are regarded by hardline Islamists as apostates because they revere saints and
shrines

Sounds plausible. But I'm more inclined to believe they hate each other because someone from one tribe once raped a goat belonging to another tribe.

They're very over-protective and unforgiving about their goats you know.

235 is a huge number
more than a lot of war battles......must be something critical/huge/etc ??

I have written many times that Muslims are very different. But radical anti-Islamists do not believe me. Then comes the surprise that some Muslims are fighting with others much harder than with people of another faith.

Here I answered a little more:

the bombing of the mosque took place in SINAI-----that land is chock full of nutty islamist "groups" over which the government has little control. The victims (as reported in the
news are SUFIS) Lots of muslim islamist groups consider
Sufism to be heretical. ------Probably some sufi boy kissed a
sunni girl

What natural resources do they have ? Begin your search with that.Afghan. Opium, Lithium( Stanley-Black and Decker batteries) Coal, Copper, Nickel. God Bless America (Inc)

Speaking of Opium.....my neck.

A little bit about the production of opium in Afghanistan. The USSR left Afghanistan in 1989.

And subsequent years:

In 2010, Russia offered the West assistance in the destruction of opium poppy crops. From simple burning of fields to herbicides and defoliants. The West categorically refused, citing the fact that it is impossible to deprive the Afghan farmers of their livelihood:

Leaked Afghanistan files reveal corruption and drug-dealing

Pakistan, Iran and neighbors. HOOKAHS abound.

Actually Muslims on Muslim violence is just as bad as Chicago with Black on Black violence.

Who knows, maybe one of these bombings will solve all the world's problems.

no effect. The Israeli presence consisted of a few farmers and hot houses for the cultivation of tomatoes and flowers.
Nothing was INFLICTED on the population-------the population was---at that time ---impoverished Bedouins and some ESCAPEES from slave markets imported from sudan. The equiptment and hot houses were gifted to the local population -------they pillaged and destroyed it. The fact is that SINAI is
POTENTIALLY cultivatable-------lots of sunshine----some oil but of poor quality and hardly worth the drill
