Having cleared the Pearl Roundabout of protesters, the Bahrain regime Friday destroyed the centerpiece, the Pearl Monument, in what appears to be an effort to spite the protesters and deny them a key symbol for their movement.
The Pearl Monument was erected in 1982 to celebrate a GCC summit, and was ironically a symbol of GCC ties for years. Now, with GCC troops marching in the streets to crush popular protest, the protesters had been rallying at the monument for some of its key protests.
The official line for the government is that the monument was torn down to satisfy the protesters’ demands of “improved services,” arguing that it would relieve traffic congestion in the roundabout. Since the roundabout is facing military attack on a fairly regular basis, however, this is just a talking point.
Despite the declaration of martial law earlier this week making public protest illegal, thousands of protesters continued to take to the streets on Friday, focusing on complaints about the foreign military intervention as well as the crackdowns by the Bahraini military.
For now if there are any politician who is insane is Sarkozi.., although one my add that rest of the EU and US are as insane as he is but.., what is by Muslim Brotherhood called revolution in Libya is nothing but establishing a Islamic regime in Libya, Hillary Clinton been giving them the green light supporting their movement when they meet in Paris last week, in return the Muslim brotherhood would leave Israel alone when and if they become part of feature Egyptian government. In the other hand the EU and US have made sure that is going to be an Arab national which going to attack Libya.., (although Sarkozi showing some military muscle here) if they can not reach an agreement on issues regarding Libya government and Muslim Brotherhood there, which means while Arab national are fighting each other Israel will confiscate more Palestinians land and call it settlements. If that happens.., then Arab nationals are going to be engaged for years in fighting each other which will spread throughout the Middle East and Hillary Clinton and other are well aware of the fact.., here is the reason for Israel not being nervous about this fact.
This kind of dilemma was played and orchestrated by EU and US before and during Balkan war where all the blame were put on Serbs while Sunny Muslims where doing their part in killing people in Kosovo.., during Iraq war before and during the bombing they were doing exactly the same.., everything was blamed on Saddam regime saying how brutal he is toward Shiiets in Iraq and everyone in the world was assured that Iraq is going to be a democratic country .., look what happened there.., this has been the politic by US and EU making deal where they benefit from. These wars never been about peoples nor for the people, these wars are for few and created by few for the few. These regimes as in Bahrain or Saudi Arabia been the reasons for Israel and US or EU to do whatever they ever wanted to do, they are not the alley of EU and US for no reason.., therefore they all are supported by EU and US. It is about time for people to deal with it, it is time for people to say no to US and EU involvement demanding that is people business and not theirs and people would deal with it.., tell US militarism regime to go home and stay home.
When all the advocates for intervention are done with Libya, how long until they begin beating the drums for an overthrow of the repressive regime in Bahrain?
Where are the advocates of safeguarding civilians from brutal Government repression now?
No calls from Obama and Clinton for action against the King of Bahrain OR the Saudi's for their actions.
Only selected Tyrants are in the gunsights of these one eyed advocates of democracy.
SHAME ON THE WORLD FOR NOT SEEING WHAT IS HAPPENING HERE.
