It feels like we're living in the calm be4 the storm, and many things foreshadow bloodshed in #bahrain
When Richard Sollom from Physicians for Human Rights came to #bahrain he was stopped at the airport
It didn't matter that he had a visa, and a promise from the foreign minister that he wud be allowed in #bahrain
He was stopped for many hours then told to come to #bahrain after february
Brian Dooley from Human Rights First was also supposed to be in #bahrain now. But the ministry contacted him and said he wud be denied entry
Dooley writes that they told him to postpone his trip until march. Read his article here http://www.humanrightsfirst.org/2012/01/17/was-it-something-i-said/ #bahrain
