    Bahrain Doctors,Nurses,Medical staff,some of whom have been tortured and sexually abused,have been imprisoned for five--15 years for giving medical treatment to wounded protesters.They are mainly Shiite staff The ruling family are Sunni ( al-Khalifar )..............It is a dictatorship.
    The majority population is Shia

    Having travelled the Middle East for two decades one of my responsibilities was to control our company activities in the Middle East.Our main office and set up was on Bahrain Island.

    On one occasion I was `entertained` by Bahrain Security Services (organised and run by former British Policeman,not very pleasant gentlemen ) in Manama for having obtained a contract that one of the many Crown Prince`s wanted.

    Fortunately my `influential`sponsor/partner was able to make my detention a matter of hours instead of days/months.
    Also we had critical contract to repair their Refinery FCC Unit ( Cat Cracker ) which if interrupted would result in the Saudi Oil people crawling all over them.

    Bahrain does not have Oil............they refine it for Saudi Arabia.

    The Medical staff and many Bahrain civilians now in Prison will not be having a pleasant time.Prisons in Middle East are awfull places.

    Britain supplies arms and crowd control equipment to Bahrain.and Security officers are British.

    Bahrain does not have Oil...........................Lybya has Oil.

    Bahrain like Syria peoples will have to fend for themselves.

    However Democracy of sorts will win in the end.............Sooner the better.
