Dear Mr. President

Dear Mr. President, I write to you as a citizen of the world and a long-time resident of Bahrain. You lead the most powerful and largest democracy. America is portrayed as the land of the free, where people from all walks of life supposedly live with complete freedom – after all, an American is an […]

Iran’s Master Manipulators in Bahrain

On Sunday, 4th August 2013, US Embassies in Dhaka, Doha, Kabul, Khartoum, Kuwait and Bahrain remained closed due to a “threat” made in Yemen by Al Qaeda. Ironically, Bahrain is safer than New York and London so why the embassy was shut here is a mystery. Masters at propaganda, America, presumably wants to attract attention […]

Le Hezbollah de Bahreïn

Par Sally SAAR (Expatriée britannique résidente à Bahreïn, Partisane de l’Humanité et de la Paix) Le Hezbollah, qui a su tracer son chemin vers le pouvoir au Liban, a réussi à infiltrer Bahreïn. Hassan Nasrallah est né le 21 août 1960 et a été nommé à la tête du Mouvement Amal avant d’effectuer un voyage […]

Poisoned Pens

Journalism at one time was considered a noble profession; one that was credible, honest with the purpose to provide the general public global information, in an unbiased manner. Sadly, it has become a “business” to spread malicious allegations, fuel propaganda and circulate disinformation for the highest bidder. Countries, governments and well-known personalities have not only […]

Deceitful Diplomacy

There are over 220 UK diplomatic missions across the globe, yet there are rarely, if any, petitions against representatives on the basis of “internal interference”. The USA has approximately 294 embassies and consulates in the world with numerous complaints against ambassadors and consulate staff for interfering in support of espionage and terrorism against governments in […]

Thor of the West

Abdulemam was a speaker at the Oslo Freedom Forum last week making a fumbled and awkward speech, using a poorly manipulated video presentation to draw sympathy and offer a visually biased and prejudiced report. The video shows graphic images that have been used out of context and thus can be considered slanderous. It is evident […]

Capital of Torture – Tehran

Al Wefaq‘s latest creative campaign on social media is “capital of torture”. Their manipulated images, information and propaganda for the vast majority in Bahrain is infuriating. Western powers feed into this sensationalism and ludicrous accusations, actively ignoring the peaceful majority in a multi-cultural and tolerant society. Bahraini people by nature are calm and laid back […]

Hezbollah Contempt for Bahrain Formula

Last night (Friday 12th April) in the heart of Juffair, a car bomb was detonated and a second car exploded as a result. There were no injuries and within minutes police had cordoned off the area and the situation was under control. Last week the Foreign Ministry building was attacked by a group of terrorists […]

Ethics of Teaching?

One of the biggest Teachers unions states “For many years the NASUWT has also been highlighting the issue of disruption, harassment and violence in schools. The NASUWT continues to be the teachers’ union supporting members to defend their right to work in an environment free from violence and disruption”. The UK National Union of Teachers […]

Dictatorship by a Foreign Power

National dialogue takes place every single working day within parliament, be it in London or Bahrain. Members of Parliament are theoretically the voice of people within their constituency. If that representative then chooses to leave parliament he is now securely outside the democratic parliamentary process as is the norm in any Western democracy. In short […]
