Is Proxy War About To Erupt In Bahrain? -- Pajamas Media

The language and actions of the Iranian government strongly indicate it is preparing for war in Bahrain.

Anyone who has seen the Iranian regime’s film The Coming is Near knows the Middle East is on the verge of exploding. The question is what spark will light it. The region seems to shift daily, but right now, it looks like Iran has chosen Bahrain as the place to pounce.

Iran views Bahrain as ripe for the picking. The pro-American royal family is Sunni, but about 70 percent of the population is Shiite.
