Re: Bahrain's Al Khalifa Hardliners Consolidate (none / 1)
What I wonder is what role Saudi Arabia plays here. Considering that the Saudi backing was a significant factor in the fighting at the Pearl Roundabout (as I understand it was), the Bahraini government should be indebted which means the Saudis should wield significant power. So are the Saudis backing the Khawalids?
