All Is Not Well In Bahrain

Bahrain seems to be idyllic.

But there seems to be simmering discontent among the populace about the repressive rule .

It is a ticking time bomb, it might eplode t any time.

The same applies to Abu Dhabi and Dubai.

Under the glitter they are boiling.
The second anniversary of Bahrain’s popular uprising was marked by renewed violence, resulting in the death of a 16-year old boy. In the video, filmed right after the teenager’s death, a desperate protester can be seen risking his life to stand up to the police.

The victim’s name was Hussein al-Jaziri. According to opposition websites, the teenager was killed by fragmentary bullets. Overwhelmed by this death, which he had just witnessed, a protester walked up to police and screamed at them. The policemen tried to intimidate him, but seemed thrown off balance by the protester’s daring.
