The Sunni are the Evil. It was Sunni who flew planes into our buildings and it is Sunni who is ISIS and Alqueada. Wake up.
That's a flat out lie. Al Qaeda, Boko Haram, the Taliban, ISIS & al Nusra are Wahhabi groups, not Sunnis. Wahhabis are not Sunnis & they don't even consider themselves Sunnis. Sunnis usually make up the majority of their victims (like the Kurdish people, who are mostly Sunnis).
Wahhabism came from Sunni Islam.........
One reason they are attacking the Kurds is because of their ethnicity, and the fact that the Kurds took over many of the oil fields, and also Kurds are more progressive allowing their women more equal footing, that doesnt sit well with ISIS and many others who are more extreme, so the fact that the Kurds are Sunni therefore ISIS cant be Sunni, doesnt cut the mustard....
Also in many cases ISIS quizes people and they let the SUNNIS go , this was especially true in Iraq and other areas they have established their fledgling "caliphate"
So actually youre answer isnt that cut and dry..........

And you're completely wrong. Wahhabis don't even consider themselves Sunnis. They consider themselves Salafis. And Salafis aren't Sunnis either. In fact, Salafis came before Sunnis.
But of course, non-Muslims always seem to think they know more about Islamic denominations than actual Muslims. That's like asking a Christian for advice about the beliefs & views of atheists, then dismissing the advice from actual atheists when they try to correct them.

I know many groups who claim to be Christian and you wouldn't accept it for one minute.
Army of God will kill anyone who isn't Christian
KKK kill back people
Anti Balaka machete Muslim children
Mungeke skin people alive
EnlightenedServant said everything else that's relevant.
If someone puts Al Wahab above Muhammad (pbuh) they're not a Muslim, they can claim it all they like.
From 14 February, President Roosevelt and King Ibn Saud of Saudi Arabia met aboard the Quincy. During the meeting, President Roosevelt tried to persuade Saud to give support for Jewish immigration to Palestine and hoped that Ibn Saud might be able to offer constructive advice on the Palestine issue. There, Roosevelt and Saud concluded a secret agreement in which the U.S. would provide Saudi Arabia military security – military assistance, training and a military base at Dhahran in Saudi Arabia – in exchange for secure access to supplies of oil.[1]

No im not completely wrong
Whahbbis DID COME from the SUNNI sect.......period you can deny that all you want but that doesnt matter its truth
Whether you believe their doctrine or not is not of any consequence, we were talkign about who they are and where they came from
If you were so up on your Islam then you would know where they come from......

lol again im not talking about DOCTRINE
Youre trying to split hairs because you dont want to be associated with Wahabbis
Its like me arguing the fact that Baptists didnt come from Catholics
Yes they did..........baptists dont consider themselves catholics but they are still CHRISTIANS
argue semantics all you want
lol your bitterness with this whole thing is yet more glaring reality about the Infighting within the Muslim religion itself
Muhammad ibn ʿAbd al-Wahhab (/wəˈhɑːb/; Arabic: محمد بن عبد الوهاب; 1703 – 22 June 1792) was a Sunni Islam preacher and scholar from Saudi Arabia in central Arabia who claimed to "purify" Islam by returning it to what, he believed, were the original principles of that religion as the salaf, t
