SjaaKTreKHaaK Posted March 15, 2011 Share Posted March 15, 2011 BAHRAIN'S king imposed a three-month state of emergency yesterday and gave the country's military chief wide authority to battle a pro-democracy uprising that has threatened the ruling monarchy and drawn in forces from around the Gulf. The martial law-style order - read on Bahrain state TV - comes a day after more than 1,000 Saudi-led troops arrived to help prop up the US-backed regime in the first major cross-border action against the revolts that have erupted across the Arab world. A security official in Saudi Arabia said a Saudi sergeant was shot and killed by a protester yesterday in Bahrain's capital, Manama. keep you informed, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As the violence escalated, close ally the United States warned that there was "no military solution" to political upheaval in Bahrain and that any violence against peacefully expressed political demands "should be stopped". "More than 200 people we received today had been shot with buckshot," Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SjaaKTreKHaaK Posted March 16, 2011 Author Share Posted March 16, 2011 Bahrain (AP) — Soldiers and riot police used tear gas and armored vehicles to drive out hundreds of anti-government protesters occupying a landmark square in Bahrain's capital, a day after emergency rule was imposed in the violence-wracked Gulf kingdom. Demonstrators said at least two people were killed. The full-scale assault launched at daybreak swept into Pearl Square, which has been the center of uprising against Bahrain's rulers since it began more than a month ago. Stinging clouds of tear gas filled streets and black smoke rose from the square, possibly from the protesters' tents set ablaze... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Over the last couple of years I have been researching these kind of things in my free time and reading up on it and it is sickening to see how the world is run..right under our noses..and most people do not have a clue!! The corporations are pretty much making people "sheeple" so they can control them.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crasher Posted March 17, 2011 Share Posted March 17, 2011 It was an obvious domino effect when Egypt was done, and with the media attention, people thought more about thier own homelands. Most of the leaders you see on the news have been in power for 20-30 years+ and i'm surprised it took them this long to realize their leaders are terrible.
