If one reads the sermons by the executed Shia cleric then in fact if a Sunni had said the same thing it would have happened to them as well.
One might go as far back as Jesus and say the same thing...meaning if one decides to speak truth to power one might end up dead if the power bear does not like what is being said ie the Romans...
The West would do well in fully understanding this in the ME---the Syrian civil society did just this and are still paying the genocidal price for it....BUT at least they made a choice......
