Bahrain Government - State of Denial

14 February 2011

On this day, the Gov was busy celebrating the 10th anniversary of the National Action Charter, which 98.4% of the people of Bahrain voted for, just before it was overturned by the King, through the issuance of a new Constitution that was never endorsed nor accepted by the people of Bahrain. On the other hand, while people were protesting against the coup by the King, when he betrayed his people ten years back, the regime security forces cracked down all protests brutally, with no prior warning.

Let's shed some light on the disparity between the Bahrain Government narratives and the people's side of the story.

Government Story
True? Lie?
The Gov passed its condolences for the killing of Ali Abdul Hadi Mushaima (by riot police) and claimed there’s no legal justification for the killing and ordered investigation
True. But investigation never took place!
Protestors threw molotovs and stones at riot police
Dumb lie!

The rally started and ended peacefully. Just after the protestors started leaving the area, thugs with edged-weapons started attacking the “withdrawing” protestors, injuring many. Thugs vandalized cars. Thugs were not stopped by the security forces. Instead of shooting towards the thugs, security forces started shooting at the protestors, who responded by throwing stones at the barbarian thugs
