What causes people to become violent and form gangs to destroy civilization and to harm or murder those individuals who walk into the path of these dangerous people? Most certainly the reason for any war is religion. Religious fanatics seem to become heightened in the aspect of revenge. The ways in which they release their anger is through making a righteous attempt at gaining an order to the mass population because they are straying away from the beliefs that these gang members have always followed. Sometimes, people have differences in opinion over nationality, race or ethnicity and in this part of the world over the past week ethnic riots have been the key cause of the deaths of so many people. As of today, in Krygystan more than 124 people have been killed unnecessarily. In the past four days, thousands of residents have been hurt and forced to evacuate to the bordering countries to seek asylum and a safe place to wait out this ethnic revolution.

Fighting between ethnic Uzbeks and Kyrgyz raged in the worst violence since former President Kurmanbek Bakiyev was overthrown in April. A state of emergency was declared and the military and security forces attempted to regain control with armoured vehicles and helicopters.

I disagree. Money and power are more likely the reasons for war. The powers behind war use religion or in the case of the USA in Afghanistan, woman's rights abuse by the Taliban, as a war drum to gain popular support.
Krygystan's current problems are more to do with its attempt at  a three way political balancing act with the USA, Russia and China. 
Their problems are going nowhere soon.
