“If you have no shame, then do what you want” Good Arab Saying
“Bahrain Defence Force (BDF) Commander-in-Chief Marshal Shaikh Khalifa bin Ahmed Al Khalifa confirmed in an interview published today in the Kuwaiti newspaper “Al Rai”, that the BDF, Ministry of Interior (MOI), and the National Guard system was able to restore safety and security in the Kingdom through stopping those who attempted to overthrow the regime and establish a state within the clerical rule of Iran that follows Welyat Al Faqeeh ” ’ the mandate of the jurist’. Marshal Khalifa bin Ahmed refused labeling the groups involved in the recent events as reform callers, describing them as traitors an saboteurs that led Bahrain into chaos and disorder. Pointing out that the Seven Associations were carrying out the guidance lines from Iran that drew the acts of sabotage and barbarism in the Kingdom. The Commander in Chief explained that upon declaring a state of national safety a number of involved heads in the killing and agitation were arrested, along with the group of terrorists who threatened the civil peace and attacked public and private property to undertake the legal necessary procedures…….”
Field Marshal (no less) Shaikh Khalifa Bin Ahmad Al Khalifa of Bahrain. This Field Marshal, the Rommel of Bahrain, had to call in Saudi forces in order to put down a demonstration or two. Or maybe the invaders just came in on their own. If I were in his place, I would be ashamed. If I were in his place, I would keep away from the media for a while, having to import foreign occupation forces to subdue my people. Before that they had imported foreign mercenaries to subdue the people, bypassing the Field Marshal.
The title of Field Marshal is normally given, in normal countries, only to generals who have fought and won battles. Like Bernard Montgomery of Britain and Erwin Rommel of Germany. Normal countries don’t bestow such honors on buffoons like Shaikh Khalifa Al Khalifa, just for being born.
