Clinton urges Saudi, Bahrain to embrace Arab Spring

Referring to Bahrain population as majority Shie't is a jok. Although this is not relevant to the main subject about protest in Bahrain, I beleive some of the international media coverage deliberity mislead outside world and public opinion. There was not peaceful protest, there was not sincere demands for reforms and finally poeple got arrested are not politicians. Wake up please, what happened in Bahrian and is still happening is simply a political game orcystrated by regional and international parties aiming to shape the region in confirmity to their interest. If the US is concerned about human rights, let us see their reaction to what Israel does to the Palestanian in Palastine. Bahrain was proactive in its political reforms almost a decade before the Arab Springs.

Dear Clinton Madam;

We know that you have a role in democracy movements that continue to roil the Middle. We know you had greater role in organizing protest in Bahrain. We cannot forget that your embassy in Bahrain distributed sweets to protestors when they protest in front of your embassy. We know your role is to destabilize the entire Middle East we know your role is to capture oil wealth of entire Middle East and we know you are with the government and you are with the protestors at the same time. We know you play double roll. Please do not teach us the democracy lessons, jut get out of our region and let us live in peace and harmony.

The US is fomenting the unrest and instability in the Middle East (and not only) for the last half century.

They invented the mullahs, the talibans, alqaida and God knows what else they are thinking about...

They want democracy and have the skills (as H. Clinton says) to implant domocarcy in the same way they planted it in Argentina, Chile, Mexico, Iran, Iraq, Libia....

Please give us a break and let the Euro devaluate and go 1 to 1 with dollar. In that way the world wioll go back to normality at the expense of the US, who despoite having kept their dollar weak now for two decades areincapable of coming out of their financial crisis 9again cretae dby them through their finnancial system and "mafia")

I agree that Bahrain should release political prisoners who have taken to the streets peacefully to demand political reforms. This should not include any protester with bloodied hands, killers of police officers, those who cut out the tongues of asian expats, & ran people over with cars. These youth continue to terrorise the expats and disrupt the livelihood of everyone else who doesnt share their revolutionary ambitions. Just last week they poured motor oil on major highways creating havoc and trafic accidents that could have cost people their lives, they tied chains accross lamposts on major highways preventing people from going to work, set trash bins and tires on fire in the middle of the street, etc.. Would any of this violent behaviour be accepted in the USA occupy wall street, or any other country? the bahrain police have their hands tied, and the rioters continue to receive un-earned support from the world media and the USA.

I would like to advice Hilary Clinton to stop meddling in Middle Eastern affairs. Perhaps try to clear up the mess you left in Afghanistan and Iraq before telling M-E leaders what to do.
