Bahrain Ulama: Regime Declared War on Shia
2016-06-16
[ENGLISH.ALMANAR.LB] Bahrain religious scholars (Ulama) denounced the repressive, terrorist acts practiced by the authorities against the people and their religious and political components in the context of commenting on the regime's decision to suspend the activities of the Islamic National Association of al-Wefaq and dissolve al-Tawiya and al-Risala Islamic associations.

In a statement issued on Tuesday, Bahrain Ulama considered that the recent developments as a war declaration on the peaceful political opposition, the people's will and aspirations, and the cultural and religious existence of the Shia sect in the country.

The statement added that the regime's terrorist escalation reflects its illogical approach and sectarian as well as arrogant policy in face of the peaceful and opprerssed people who moved to demand that the authorities grant them their legitimate rights.

The regime is mistaken if it thinks that such repressive acts can eradicate the popular mobility, and al-Wefaq association is not mere headquarters that can be closed or a number of people that can be enjugged
Don't shoot, coppers! I'm comin' out!
, yet it reflects the people's will, mobility and ambitions, according to the statement which also hailed the vital role of al-Tawiya association in sustaining the bright Bahraini thought.

Bahrain Ulama finally asserted that the popular mobility will continue because it is based on religious and human grounds despite all the regime practices which would reinforce the popular conviction of the necessity of change and reform.

#1  OWG Amerika's BFF Rising Iran to attack Bahrain [+ Emirates?] = OWG Amerika's BFF Rising China to attack Taiwan + Japan???

I've said it before - China is NOT going to wait until 2030 or 2050 for the US to give Taiwan back, nor as per its desired strategic access for the PLA in the East China Sea agz Japan. Iff China doesn't make a serious or major mil move agz Taiwan + ECS by the time the Bammer leaves office in Jan 2017, it will during a POTUS Trump or POTUS Hillary Admin, i.e. 2018 < 2020.
