Bahrian Trial Update and Call to Action to US Activist and Democracy Supporters

by Randy Martin

CONFIRMED – Military Trials for 21+/- Democracy Activists in Bahrain, scheduled for today, May 8, has been postponed by until Thursday. This is the ultimate Kangaroo Court and some sentences will likely carry the death penalty. The US and President Obama continue to MAINTAIN THEIR SILENCE.

US activists and all people of conscience with any regard for Human Rights and Democracy, should pull all stops and contact their Congressmen and the White House in full on effort to seek intervention to stop yet another disaster, caused by failed US foreign Policy and President Obama’s INACTION. This situation is urgent and an opportunity for the US to intervene, in a huge way, without the senseless need for bombing and killing or other means toward the loss of life in order to advance the basic democratic freedoms we enjoy in the United State and so easily take for granted.

The 21st century in N. Africa and Middle East belongs to Democracy. It is an end of era that has belonged to Kings and Tyrants, who have prostituted themselves to weapons dealers, highest bidder for their oil wealth and those who profit as surrogates of foreign policy and economic adventures of wealthy nations.

Nations that have propagated these dictators and murders, must move with abandonment from their archaic policies of blind and silent support for the wicked deeds of their friends. They MUST intervene on behalf of Democracy seeking people and ensure protection of their basic Human Rights, if not out of conscience or moral obligation then do it to preserve your own economic and other self interests.

While few will shed a tear over the assassination of Osama Bin Laden, he was of our making. The wealthy nations who prop up the Tyrants, Kings and Dictators in N. Africa and the Middle East, must come to grips with the notion that continued support for their favorite King, Tyrant or Dictator, whether ACTIVE OR SILENT, will create a thousand Bin Ladens. If they fail to ACT NOW, their stain will remain because they STOOD SILENT and WATCHED as these ATROCITIES happen. As they stand SILENT they could have acted to SAVE Fathers, Brothers, Mothers, Sisters and Children, from these despicable men they have chosen as friends.
