me and im sure all the free people of bahrain would say THANK YOU msnbc for showing the world the truth.
To be fair,
Bhahrain has (if not the highest) a high population density; but yes, the roads around the pearl are definately not compatable with any residence building whatsoever.
please stop lying, no one died while removing the roundabout. don't you get sick of lying, just stop. this is time to heal not to continue with yout ridiculous lies. Bahrain is drained and deeply wounded from all of this. Please lets just come together and start this dialogue already.
Islam teaches tolerance, then why are the Shia community being trampled by the Bahraini and Saudi Government. The Shiite community is a hard working community and they have tried to educate themselves.
The Pearl Roundabout is a landmark, just destroying it does not serve any purpose. It shows ones pettiness.
