Deadly use of tear gas in Bahrain - 60 dead

Protest have continued in Bahrain on an almost daily basis since they began Feb. 14, 2011 when they started in the Pearl Round About. The protesters initially were asking for reforms not necessarily Regime change. The government's reaction has been a brutal crackdown which is still going on.
The Obama government in Washington and the Saudi Monarchy give unconditional moral and material support to the monarchy in Bahrain and ignore human rights violations The USA and other Western nations have incorrectly characterized the popular uprising as being fomented by Iran for which there is no evidence.
The Bahraini government was criticized for using live rounds on protesters so they changed tactics and now use massive amounts of tear gas ostensibly for crowd control. But it is believed that the use of tear gas is just another means to cause extreme physical and or neurological damage and death. Out of the 120 people who are known to have been killed since 2011 approximately 60 have died due to exposure to large amounts of tear gas.
Bahrain as one of the documentaries made about Bahrain's struggle has put it simply that Bahrain is Shouting in the Dark and its desire for reform and justice is ignored by the rest of the world.
