Opposition threatens to hold more protests and a nationwide strike if the government refuses to resign.

Resign for what?
Being Sunni?

“Resign for what?
Being Sunni?”

Essentially. And selling oil to the West, and letting women show one square inch of skin (rather than zero).

Seems like good reasons for us to AGAIN throw our chips with the opposition...LOL.

All of these uprisings are Shite driven. These are the prople who want to bring Sharia Law to the west.

The Sunni are not much better, but they are at least pragmatic in understanding that western culture offers some good things.

Let’s hope the Middle East is aflame and these two groups go about killing each other for many more years.

I don't know how accurate this story is. The Bahraini government is saying the report isn't true and that the tanks were Bahraini.

Our news media is so agenda driven, making stuff up or re-writing stuff to suit their own nefarious purposes, its hard to believe what's the real story anymore.

[Old Teufel Hunden]

Of course Saudi Arabia is going to defend Bahrain. If Bahrain falls and becomes a caliphate, where would all the Saudis go for their prostitution and gambling pleasures? Not to mention the Sailors of the Fifth fleet.

Two tanks per tank carrier? They must be some humongous carriers or some tiny tanks.

Story?

HOGWASH.

Unreliable news source consistently. Worse the DEBKA.

Not to mention it is disinformation coming out of Iran through Syria.

There's no "there" "there".
