Marshall Law Declared
GCC Military Forces Enter

King Hamad Bin Essa officially announced today, his country of Bahrain is now under full Marshall Law for the next three months.


His son, Crown Prince of Bahrain, has been calling for dialog with the opposion for the last 3 months to no avail. The opposing organization has refused any opportunity for dialog to the disappointment of the royal family.

GCC Forces from the Gulf countries have responded to the request of King Hamad Bin Essa, asking for military reinforcement troops to withstand the onslaught of the opposition group there.

Iran has issued a statement condemning the Royal Family for calling GCC forces entering into Bahrain are totally unacceptable. Iran has long been opposed to treatment of Shiite Muslims living in Bahrain and is making heavy statements in condemnation of military intervention in that country.

Government authorities say they are working together to quell the uprising as soon as possilbe, and at the same time, in a peaceful manner without injury to protestors or spectators.
