An Arab King sat and listened to legal experts tell him that his government had killed and tortured etc. etc. You may scoff, but in the bounds of reality and what we're used to from other Arab governments this is a virtual revolution and unparalleled...<br /><br />The government, as I understand it, is now undertaking huge legislative and even constitutional reform (c/f the King's speech on 15 january 2012). Fine if you don't think they go far enough or if you think that someone high up in government should be held accountable for the govt's failures (which none yet has), but unfair to say that nothing at all has happened:<br /><br />www.govactions.bh <br /><br />website describes the progress of implementing BICI's recommendations.<br /><br />Great article otherwise.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8391958287808959571.post-57781369320024873762012-01-28T10:50:51.555+03:002012-01-28T10:50:51.555+03:00Great pictures, great story, great work in there, ...Great pictures, great story, great work in there, GREAT BLOG.
