Suppressing Dissent Plunges Bahrain Deeper into Crisis
The situation in the tiny Persian Gulf state of Bahrain is getting tense as protests grow over the house arrest of senior Shia cleric Sheikh Isa Qassim. Protests turned violent this past Tuesday after security forces stormed into the residence of Sheikh Qassim. In angry demonstrations that pursued, several were reported to have been killed and many wounded. There have also been many arrests. Tensions started after a Bahraini regime court gave a suspended jail sentence to the leader of the country’s dissolved opposition bloc the al-Wefaq National Islamic Society.
Terrorism Hits Britain Again, Familiar Ideology Blamed
Terrorism has struck its ugly head again in the UK, with a suspected suicide bomber attacking crowds of people as they left a concert at the Manchester arena. With Ariana Grande completing her performance, the incident took place as the crowds of young fans left the arena. Reports have suggested that over 20 people have lost their lives, with over 60 seriously injured or wounded. As with most cases of terrorism, there is no shadow cast until the moment the incident hits, and with the venue being full of people, the reaction to the incident, which has been widely condemned, has nonetheless attracted maximum publicity, fear, terror and impact on Britain, which yet again has succumbed to the hands of a terrorist ideology.
