hope bahrain king will start to do something about this. All people are saying that SHia start the violence WHAT IF???? what if the one start killing is not shia. Their is no shia or suni after all. We even don't know if it's shia or suni. But still all news keep on saying that shia is bad. I think as of justice, honesty, or ethics it's really unfair...

I'm not a shia nor suni. I'm just saying my opinion base on what i saw...

I'm not a muslim too... but not all muslim are bad.

For the government of bahrain, they should stop using gun etc for violence Rules to be Done "Give and Take".

That's All... Thanks for keeping us updated.
