Even though nine medical personnel are set free, an appeals court in Bahrain reaffirms prison sentences for nine other doctors and nurses, some up to five years. Just because they treated wounded protesters calling for greater democratic freedoms for Shiites in a country ruled by Sunnis.
Moreover, Bahrain arrested an 11-year old boy for associating with a group protesting the government's discrimination, and then kept him in jail for several weeks.
Why won't Pres. Obama and Sec. Clinton come out and condemn Bahrain and its repressive monarchy?
The answer is, the U.S. Navy has its Fifth Fleet based in Bahrain, ready to bomb and attack Iran at moment's notice. Animus towards Iran trumps American values of freedom and democracy as to Bahrain.

OBAMA, STOP RUSH TO WAR AGAINST IRAN!
When Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu comes to Washington several weeks from now, besides addressing Israel's premier lobbying group in the U.S., AIPAC, he is expected to visit with Pres. Obama and pressure him on attacking Iran.
Mr. Obama, stand up to Netanyahu. Don't let him bully you into sending American war planes to bomb Iran and kill thousands of Iranians.
