the role in the middle east is that islam has many groups who see the quoram in diffrent ways.
you have sunnies
sheites
moder muslims
and those who take the quoram in black and white.
then you have the only country in the middle east that are the jews who.pratice judaism.
which is an older religion than islam.
these are the conflicts.
jews do not accept islam.
muslims dont accept jews
and many.mulsims fight amongs each other beacuse they have disgreements on how to practice islam.
the isis are the ones who are militant muslims who belive islam is to be the one religion above all the religions at any cause.
