Zusammenfassung:Although the member states of the Shiite Crescent—Iran, Iraq, and Lebanon—have recently gained partial success in regional competition, they face a governance crisis due to the growing public dissatisfaction in each country. This has undermined their achievements and made them the field of conflict between the proponents of secular and political Islam.

The result has been an upsurge of distrust and a clash between Shiite fundamentalists and the conservative Arab states.
