Free Bahrain

In the name of freedom and the nation "It was a dream, then a thought, then a possibility, then it became a reality not a dream" We, the Bahraini youth, from all the different sects and ideologies, call the people to unify their position in demanding their rights and the rights of their children. We call on Bahrainis to take to the streets on Monday 14 February in a peaceful orderly way. The time of waiting has ended, and the time of action has begun. If we do not demand our rights now then no one will demand them for us. We have witnessed our brothers in Tunisia and Egypt carry the banner of freedom and justice. For what is the value of life without freedom? And how will we have our dignity without justice? Change will not come without sacrifice, so let us sacrifice for the sake of our future and the future of our children and the future of our people. We have been suffering the ills of corruption and brutal oppression on all levels for far too long established under an irresponsible and unaccountable regime. It may differ in the means but the cause is one. The regime has grown accustomed to creating crisis after crisis under the constructed banner of sectarianism to escape from accountability and to suppress the legitimate rights of the people. They have stolen the nation's wealth on land and sea beyond all limits. They have not stopped there, they have used the security forces to humiliate and attack citizens and have spread endemic corruption through the state apparatus and crushed our thoughts through censorship and press control. This has lead to widespread anger and frustration among all the people. It is time for us to unify, and for the nation, the entire people of this land, in all of its sects, to take control of its destiny and future generations. For we either awaken and live, or die and be forgotton. We are asking for a new constitution where every letter is written by the people. We also demanding that a special body is established under the complete authority of the people to hold accountable and to investigate all the violations of economic, political and social policies that have taken place, including the theft of public wealth and political naturalization, in order to reach national agreement and conciliation. These are the demands of the people, and these are the rights of all the people. These demands are legitimate according to all basic human values and principles of equality and justice, and the ruler must heed to these demands immediately. To all freedom-seeking people of Bahrain, now is the time for change, and now is the time to unite. So make February 14 a prideful day in the history of Bahrain -- the day that all the Bahraini people emerged, in all of its colours and all of its towns and cities, from Manama to Muharraq, from the northern villages to the suburbs in the central governate, from Sitra to the southern governate. Our demands and objectives are positive, our means are peaceful, and is not stained with sectarianism and divide that the regime has promoted for decades. There is no difference between sunni and shia, rich or poor, between Bahrani, Ajami, Houli or Tribes -- we are Bahrain. We all sacrifice ourselves for this beloved land. Let us be proud that we emerged on that day to prove our right to a dignified life that embodies our legitimate rights and to create a state that represents our aspirations and dreams for our children. - Created with AquaSoft SlideShow for YouTube: http://www.aquasoft.net
