Neck of the woods
Tuesday Nov. 13, 2012: The following tweets by the Bahrain Ministry of Interior (responsible for: police, security, mercenaries, looting, arrests, tear gas, shootings, torture, prisons, courts) were discovered:
Ministry of Interior @moi_bahrain
Our countries expose to a colonial onslaught that uses the names of human rights, freedom or democracy
Ministry of Interior @moi_bahrain
We expect those who deal with us to respect our civilized values and Islamic concepts that are based on respect for human rights.
Ministry of Interior @moi_bahrain
A need 4GCC National Security List of individuals, organizations &countries outline a clear &definitive security strategy 2deal with threats
Ministry of Interior @moi_bahrain
GCC Interior Minister signed a security agreement to promote coordination and cooperation
Ministry of Interior @moi_bahrain
GCC Interior Ministers condemned recent bombings in Bahrain that resulted in severe injuries and death to both civilians and police.
Forget the nonsense about ‘colonialism of human rights organizations’.
I found the third tweet (from the top in red) the most disturbing. It tells me where they are heading, these potentates on my Gulf. It says: “GCC National Security List of individuals, organizations &countries”. Meaning they will create a common list of names of individuals, organizations tweepes, bloggers, etc. I suspect a majority of the people of Bahrain will be on that proposed “dangerous” list. With the twin goals of killing dissent and spreading fear in the citizenry. But, alas, the fear is mostly gone these days.
