Bahrain is an excellent example of Western media bias. The Shia majority are treated like virtual slaves by their Sunni overloards, but the Western media remain mum.  Good work RT. Keep it up.

Why would Russia care? They are only Al-Qaeda, like in Syria...  So did the CIA create Russia too then ?

it is amazing that saudi arabia and qatar can go around the world telling the secular syrians to follow the wahabi islam style...
which is getting women all wrapped up in black cloth, making them into nothing more than breeding cattles,
whereby the ruling class can jet off to the western cities and drink and party like crazy while telling the rest of the saudis to be pious... amazingly, no one in saudi is uprising against these jokers, amazing brain washing by the wahabis...

Not just Bahrain.

The media should make more light on Saudis Arabias Dictatorship, and the wests bias relationship to it.

The Bahrain citizens are more and more RIGHTLY wanting US to take their 5th. fleet out of Bahrain's port and hit the road (Gulf).

Meanw hile the US Government and spy infested US State Department is more than willing to stand by and help the Bahrain emirate's brutally crush the unarmed protesters via US supplied M1-A1 Saudi Tanks, Chemical Weapons or whatever it takes while pretending to care one iota for the Bahrain people.

Evil Zionist led/owned Western Media outlets are deliberately silent on the heavy handed and often brutal crack-down across Bahrain while shaking their finger at Syria for dealing with foreign terrorists armed with RPG's and advanced anti-tank missiles supplied by US/Israel funneled thru Qatar and other Western Gulf puppet states.

wow this story brought them out!

What's the problem guys ?    lol

just like regarding Ron Paul, RT reports on all relevant stories, that's why their market share grows, and yours shrinks.

it's a sad story about your backwardness , and you can't do anything about it, thats what's sad.

i find that sad anyhow, but to perk myself up i think about squirrles, an/or hugging them.

you know My friend says whenever she see the President she pictures’ him in a squirrel suit.

( i don't think it would ever happen because i know he's more of a cat guy)

If I ever saw the President in a Squirrel suit I’d have to say I’d want to hug him , hell I want to hug him now!, (in a man heterosexual kind of way.)

I <3 The President (with or without squirrel suit)
I also <3 RT for reporting the news as it is around the world, and having an open forum, thus making themseleves key and relevant.

Why don't you SHUT UP, STOP talking and do something!!. Maybe NATO would take you more serious if you stopped hiding behind your home made curtains, come out and see we're in the year 2012. Maybe the west would stop looking at you like a child of the new age, begin seeing you as a new state and a country that deserves respect!
