Dear all,
Last class Mohammed gave us an excellent presentation about the acts of discrimination committed against Shias in Bahrain,particularly, and other Gulf states. The link below explains the concern of Sunnis towards the demands of the Shia in Bahrain. In short, the video portrays that Sunnis in Bahrain want to protect their positions as leaders. On the other hand, Shias are demanding more political rights as they claim that their voices have been silenced.
