It was re-scheduled as al-Wefaq learned of Martyr Jawad, whom died of tear gas suffocation and invited everyone to attend the funeral march instead.<br /><br />AND<br /><br />Obama's UN Address and the Bahrain Exception: Why is the U.S. treating this Arab state so differently than the others?<br /><br />http://www.theatlantic.com/international/archive/2011/09/obamas-un-address-and-the-bahrain-exception/245467/Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8391958287808959571.post-52147398780885360632011-09-22T01:20:44.527+03:002011-09-22T01:20:44.527+03:00"When They Were Kings"

When they try to sooth the pro-democracy group the pro-government group attack and this is evident with the Riffa3 gathering which was titled "The National Guards are a red line". It seems whoever the regime tries to please they are beat down by the opposing side. What will this mean for the future of Bahrain?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
