Arabia
Saudis, Bahrainis will overthrow monarchies in 2013 : Analyst
2012-12-13
[Iran Press TV] A political analyst tells Press TV that the spread of demonstrations in Riyadh and Jeddah, the heartlands of Saudi Arabia have made the US worried that the days of the House of Al Saud are numbered.

The comments came after Saudi protesters staged anti-regime demonstrations in several cities to demand the immediate release of prisoners of conscience and those held in prisons without charge for a long time.

Press TV has conducted an interview with Chris Bambery, author and Middle East expert, to further discuss the issue. What follows is an approximate transcription of the interview.

#3  Well at least Bahrain is peaceful and quiet ...not
Maybe the US and Russia could make a deal to protect their bases, you stay out of Syria and we'll stay out of Bahrain.

#2  Wishful thinking on the part of the Iranians but it might be amusing to watch. Why is it that Arab Spring is good for Qdaffy, Mubarak, Assad, etc, etc but not for the Soddy king? Is he not every bit as repressive as any of the others? Most likely even more so?

#1  Getting harder-n-harder for those that want to see the Bammer impeached over Benghazi-gate + other.

Will Base-too-far QATAR stand its ground, the world wonders?
