A Political Boycott on the Gulf………….
“MANAMA - One of Bahrain’s main opposition parties yesterday announced it will boycott the country’s parliamentary election and called for reform of the island kingdom’s political system. After weeks of speculation that the Islamic Action Society, known as Amal, would not take part, the group’s chairman confirmed it would boycott the election on October 23. “We will not go in this election because it is bad and the whole political operation is bad,” Sheikh Mohammed al Mahfoodh, the secretary general of Amal, said yesterday. “There is no democracy and no real parliament, just a picture of a parliament.”……..”
