A very good destination to go with tax payers money. In Bahrain minority Sunni rulers are very generous to the majority Shias. The ruler is very benevolent that he and his family are accused of corruption and bandyism. Media enjoys a lot of freedom that they are expelled or sent to jail at the drop of a hat. Countries resources are in the hands of a few who own private aircrafts, yachts, manor houses in UK and exotic resorts in US and Europe. The rulers shit in gold plated commodes. Who says we don't have friends. via DM iPad app
