damn.....thats not right.

[messi]

Thanks man, yeah it ain't right.. Our Prime Minister has been in the same position for over 40 years. People have suffered from grosse discrimination socially because of their sect. But the issue at hand is not sectarian it has become a matter of humanity. People are peacefully protesting for more rights, (right to a fair trial, employment, better education, primarily a voice). Human rights activists have recently been prosecuted as 'terrorists' for 'opposing the Government' for being critical, for blogging, it is a penal offence to criticize our ruler. Anyway, thousands of people gathered peacefully at our capital yesterday - young, old, women, children too ! some decided to sleep there overnight (pearl roundabout in Bahrain Manama) and were suddenly ambushed by thousands of riot police, people were shot, hundreds injured, over 6 people have died some being children. A doctor was killed at the scene for helping the victims. The Riot police entered the hospitals and tried to prevent medical assistance. The situation has got out of control, the riot police are using excessive force. emphasis on excessive. One doctor was handcuffed and beaten to death, and before that was threatened of rape. (male doctor) I just cannot believe this is happening in the smallest country in the world. We are meant to be a civilised nation, the people are, the authorities (mostly naturualised Bahraini's not actually Bahraini's - naturalisation in return for loyalty) are being inhumane

[BackinBlackSS/RS]

So sad! Freedom and humanity is everyone's right.

[Ghost1LE]

I'm sorry to see that they're being excessive. That's unacceptable to shoot and kill innocent people and it happens everyday. I hope you guys get the end result quickly and without more bloodshed.

You fellahs have got to call a constituent assembly, form political parties that'll fight for the nationalization of all major industries (especially petroleum) and create a society based on the needs of humanity, not the greed of corporations and the oligarchs that are exploiting the working classes.

Uh, sorry Ivas but stealing private industry and socialization/communism is NOT the answer. My family fled socialist oppression, I know first-hand the violence and murder that stem from it. A free society is the answer, not Big Brother stealing everything and deciding who the haves and have nots should be. That's the problem you see in most of the countries where people are being oppressed. Quite frankly I'm shocked to see someone in the U.S. propose such a solution. Further, you would most likely not have a Camaro under such a system.
