violently attacked in the night, the permanent garrison in the Pearl Roundabout : to h. 3:00 police snipers positioned on the highway bridge in front of tear gas and bullets have struck the tents of the protesters, charged and scattered the present and blocked all entrances to the roundabout, there are about sixty disappeared (to collect information on what has been created Facebook group), while other departments have carried out raids in villages around Manama in search of opposition activists.
the provisional report of the assault is five dead and three hundred injured, most of which admitted to the hospital Salmaniya, quickly became a new point of the insurgents to regroup and hashtags twitter on which to start the chain of solidarity and cooperation - with requests for donations and appeals to continue the fight by relatives and friends of victims of repression. Even the doctors and nurses have been spared from the wrath of mercenary minions of monarchy was prevented ambulances from approaching the Pearl Roundabout and the doctors there and realized those were beaten so violently as to require medical care themselves; while those who remained in hospital has been ordered by the authorities to deny aid to the wounded coming. At that anger and exasperation of doctors has resulted in surreal procession through the halls and corridors in the hospital and cords roads along with other protesters, claiming the right to health and the immediate resignation of the Minister of Health.
escalation of tension that worries the United States (who see the country jump cornerstone of their dominance in the Gulf - the entrance of the oil ports Iraqis, Kuwaitis and Saudis, Iran is able to monitor and replenish quickly allied monarchies of the Arabian Peninsula), the financial markets (in the last days of the auction of the debt refinancing of Bahrain was deserted, while the protests have resulted in the highest closing of the Brent oil since 2008) and the management of major global events - being put at risk the opening race of the season the world of Formula 1 provided less than a month, on the other hand, to express solidarity from the bottom to insurgents there have been spontaneous principals Embassy of Bahrain in Cairo and other capitals.
also the media battle rages; after being summoned for days, today for the first time, state television has released pictures of alleged weapons held by the demonstrators , while long been circulating online pictures of tear gas shells - produced by the American Nonlethal Technologies - used in police operations; in the afternoon, a reporter for Sky News reported the internment of foreign reporters at the international airport, whose photo and video cameras are being confiscated by police - as happened to the ABC reporter Miguel Marquez, who was harassed and threatened last night at the Pearl Roundabout.
But with images and chilling tales of raids and summary executions that leaked from the network, something seems to be hopelessly flawed . And in common sense as on the boards of social networks in the words of compromise are becoming increasingly rare, while in the early days of the protest claims were those of an expansion of constitutional rights and replacement of the prime minister for 40 years, are now outweigh the voices crying in the fall of the regime, the expulsion the royal family and the struggle to the conquest of a constitution written by the people.
" Children of Omar Mukhtar" , so you define the Libyan protesters who are fighting for hours against a police Gaddafi. Shot from helicopters, tear gas and fired into the boiling water movement that is going through Libya into his day of wrath. There is already talk of at least 6 dead in Benghazi (the second city of the country) and 4 deaths in ElBaida , not to mention the dozens of wounded, whose numbers rose by the hour thanks to some news that exits from a pease armored. The international press was kept out from the Libyan border and the few international journalists who have managed to stay in the city were unable to follow the events. The network of sites and the few independent media activists were blocked from view (as enoughghaddafi.com) and inconvenient to the regime arrested many journalists in advance. While discharged several Islamist prisoners, Gaddafi gave the orders to organize a real crackdown on opposition activists, secular lawyers and human rights activists, arresting dozens in between yesterday and this morning.
against corruption and poverty, against the regime and the crisis, scream "the people want the fall of the regime" , and do not stop even when the repression becomes more difficult. In addition to rain of bullets, it seems that Gaddafi has given orders to release many detainees "invited" to join the actions of some pro-regime groups armed to the teeth and ready to attack the demonstrators. Also in Libya, the tenacity and courage seems to be the most powerful weapon available to the square: workers, students, bloggers, professors, lawyers and a few hours the doctors have joined the protest outraged by the brutality of the regime. They are organizing roadblocks that then turn into marches and in response to repression are also attacked police stations and public buildings were burned, as well as the giant immancabiIi rais. Just in these few minutes there are reports that demonstrations and other initiatives to combat are joining the movement, and Benghazi talking about thousands and thousands of protesters ... this night will be a time of anger.
