  • U guys are mistaken and i don't like the stereo typing, lots of American and Europeans are living peacefully in Bahrain.

    Just like when in Paris, or anywhere else, everyone is flirting, ask you out for a date , even more than in the gulf , in Bahrain , people are generally decent, kind, helpfull , cheerful and will help u with no desire to abuse u or take benifits of u !

    I absouloutly disagree with the commenters below !

  • I went for Bahrain for business, and it's peaceful, graceful, and hot ( month of august) love Bahrain though, oh but the traffic jam is super.....

  • i love bahrain

  • The future of Bahrain is now a mystery - but we are all hoping for reforms; not an oppritunity for Al-Wefaq Islamists to get in power. Which they will; 61% of the votes were directed to their representatives

  • @baelr0g + Attacking sunni city, Riffa, when the residents in it already expressed they were not welcome, and attempting to invade the financial harbor - stabbing 2 unarmed traffic police (also in my account) - Going for "Shehada" by protesting next to King Hamad's governmental house himself; he responded with water and dates, not bullets. Only then, the police intervened again (With the presence of the Saudi army, protecting government buildings in southern Bahrain)

  • @baelr0g All in a period of time where not a bullet was shot. No presence of police at the roundabout, as well - in return, protesters, usually young men, under the guidence of religious figures which you can simply see by googling "MEMRI TV state of mehdi" - motivated and pushed protesters to head furher - into occupying the whole capital, blocking roads, forcing Bahrainis not to attend work while they are on their way, and even created a site to expose locations of Sunni exapts (Jordanians)

  • @baelr0g Right after the 8 fatalities (Keep in mind its only 8 after a 3 days of violent protests that included up to 5000+) the police and army completely withdrew afterwards, protesters were allowed to gather in the roundabout again - the government called for dialogue instead; the protests main figures, Al-Wefaq religious extremists, refused. The government released political prisoners. Kicked out 4 corrupt ministers. Laid down 20,000 employment oppritunities and housing project

  • @baelr0g On the other hand - Bahrain has been a very peaceful place pre 2011, one with high human development and health care. It's also worth noting that many expats feel more comfortable living in Bahrain than back in Britain and the reasons why can be found on their Facebook page: "we are Bahrain". Only 8 died due to the violent crackdown - which only became violent after some protesters ran into the police force with weaponry - and right after the 8 fatalities continued+

  • @baelr0g I'm a 20 year old Bahrain and not once have I felt threatened by gunfire in my little island. The recent fatalities were caused by close-range clashes with rubber bullets, where some of the violent protesters approached the police force with knives, the same likes to kill indians simply for being "Sunni foreigners", about 8 indians were brutally killed (and some were even taken hostage into Bahrain's main hospital - videos in my account show) by violent protesters.

  • @budgetappliance  are you trying to make a funny? :P
