will face the same fate as former despots in Iraq, Tunisia and Egypt.

"Al Khalifa and Al Saud regimes should come to realize that their American masters are simply looking for new lackeys in the region. What happened ultimately to Mohammad Reza Pahlavi, Saddam Hussein, Zine el-Abidine Ben Ali, Hosni Mubarak
...The former President-for-Life of Egypt, dumped by popular demand in early 2011...
and other dictators, now awaits them," Commander of Iran's Basij Force Brigadier General Mohammad Reza Naqdi said in Tehran on Friday.

He noted that Iranians defend the rights of Bahraini people and support their months-long struggle for democracy.

Brigadier General Naqdi also lashed out at US, UK and other hegemonic powers' hollow claims of support for human rights
...not to be confused with individual rights, mind you...
, arguing that they should answer to world public opinion for their protection of Al Khalifa despotic regime.
