Arab Spring: Update On The Middle East | DrJays.com Live | Fashion. Music. Lifestyle: "BAHRAIN
Protests for democracy erupted in Bahrain on February 14. The movement, like many of the others, began online. Almost 30 people have been killed since the beginning of the protests and according to Reuters, “Bahrain has stepped up arrests of cyber activists and Shi’ites, with more than 300 detained and dozens missing since it launched a crackdown on pro-democracy protests.” The protesters are calling for more political freedom amongst other causes. On April 5, Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad butted in and joined the fray, calling for Saudi troops on the ground to leave protesters alone and leave Bahrain altogether, “where they are helping a Sunni monarchy put down a Shi’ite-led protest movement demanding equal rights and a political voice.”"
