Our 'Friends' In The Middle East

While the 'West' has its attention turned to Libya, the Saudis and their surrogates in Bahrain have been given a free hand in their suppression of the Shia majority in that small kingdom.

Now I am not a conspiracist, and I don't believe that this is 'deliberate' or because its the mad 'Shia's' who are being suppressed we turn a blind eye.

However, there is no getting away from the fact that the condemnation has been muted at best ... and if you are wondering what I am talking about, well its this ...The man on the floor being openly tortured, is handcuffed, hooded, and has already been beaten .... he is a Shia. These forces have tortured British and other Western workers in Saudi Arabia (although not US citizens) ....

Remember, the people who authorise these beatings are 'our friends', because you can bet your life, the family and friends of the men on the floor will!
