Is your Kurdish friend the one who says there is such a divide? He's incorrect if so.
Does your Kurdish friend also know that Sunni & Shia intermarry and belong to many of the same tribes and have done so for centuries? That for centuries they've lived together and worked together and played together?
That both Shia and Sunni are equal members in several large Iraqi organizations?
AHHH WAIT! A thought:
He may be referring to IRANIAN SHIA and Iraqi Sunnis and then OH YEAH he'd be right. MASSIVE divide between those 2.
*We're talking ONLY IRAQI Shia & Sunni here.
