Am I the only Muslim on the planet who believes Caliph Yazid was right and Hussain ibn Ali was wrong [1,2]? That Husain was guilty of treason and was actually given a most 'honourable' death [at Karbala]? - he should have been captured, bound, tried and [if found guilty of treason] publicly crucified along with his co-conspirators. Despite being warned about heeding the call of the fickle Persian-Kufans, Husain still chose to help them and when he turned up they [being cowards] failed to provide the support they promised, thus he was left humiliated. The Caliph's army allowed the females and children to leave the scene leaving the men to their fate. As for the Persian-Shias they scream and shout on this day because either:
1. They're still whingeing about their own cowardice
2. They're complaning about being 'second class' citizens born out of Mut'ah Prostitution filth - but since Shias lurve their Mut'ah, they should really celebrate such births!
I came to this conclusion (about Hussain ibn Ali) almost 25 years ago (I've been reading Islamic Literature since then!) and I've seen NOTHING to change my opinion. If anything the gruesome images of demented Shias ['proving their machoness' by indulging in masochostic activities] has merely hardened my opinion.
Additionally, Caliph Al-Khattab refused to make Ali ibn Talib his sucessor because...he found Ali very facetious. I can only imagine the VERY strange manner in which Fatima simply abandoned Ali left him unbalanced (he REALLY loved her VERY much, though it seems this love was never reciprocated) and he never recovered from the shock of her desertion. As years went by he became more and more bitter and sarcastic, alienating himself from the other Sahabi. Ali's 'downfall' was quite unfortunate, because I would suggest the [wealth and 'fresh flesh' obsessed] Hashemites saw his mental state as an opportunity to use him to grab power for themselves. They would also brainwash the Persians to act as their 'sword' so no-one would suspect them of being the real players in this deadly game of Politics
I guess the moral of this story is...never love someone so much that if they hurt you, you become unbalanced
