Sunni-Shia Biker War in Australia

"An ancient religious enmity is at the centre of a new conflict in the Sydney bikie scene, with a new gang comprised mainly of Sunni Muslims warring with a group of bikies with a Shiite Muslim background. While detectives continue to investigate the February 4 bombing of a Hells Angels clubhouse in Crystal Street, Petersham, police and other sources are indicating that the city chapter of the Comanchero is involved in an escalating feud with a new club, Notorious." Read the whole thing. P.S. The situation seems to be getting increasingly out of control. P.P.S. Radosh says the term "bikie" makes Mad Max seem a lot less cool.
