Dan, I wouldn't trust the Western news sources about what happened in Bahrain. There's more than meets the eye. I would know, I study in Bahrain.

I'm not going to dig deeply into this, but while I strongly support reform and the removal of any oppression against the Shi'a, the protesters pushed their luck, and have over-exaggerated things. Not only that, but the Shi'a clergy do NOT have clean intentions. They'll gladly sic their followers to paint the streets red with Sunni blood the second they get the chance.
