Western-backed treacherous Bahraini forces attack Muslim mourners

rahimi20130112085942677Bahraini security forces have opened fire on a group people, which had gathered to mourn the anniversary of the death of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH).

On Friday, the Saudi-backed regime forces attacked a gathering of mourners, firing teargas canisters and bullets to disperse them in the town of Sanabis.

Since a popular revolution began in Bahrain in mid-February 2011, scores have been killed, many of them under torture while in custody, and thousands more detained.

Bahraini authorities have also dismissed hundreds of people from their jobs for taking part in peaceful anti-regime demonstrations.

A report, published by the Bahrain Independent Commission of Inquiry in November 2011, found that the Al Khalifa regime had used excessive force in the crackdown on protests, criticizing Manama for torturing political activists, politicians, and protesters.

Bahrainis say they will continue to hold anti-regime demonstrations until their demands for the establishment of a democratically-elected government and an end to rights violations are met.
