Politics

Last night I heard on the radio that Bahrain troops attacked mostly sleeping, peaceful protesters, with teargas and bird-shot at close range (shotgun, many tiny pellets). Several killed, a bunch wounded. It seemed reasonably possible to me. But not to [livejournal.com profile] cathijosephine. I find it a very interesting example of our substantially differing perspectives. And we've still been together for five years. (Neither of us claims to know anything about Bahrain.)

Update: The first video on this page is what I heard on the radio: http://www.channel4.com/news/protesters-killed-as-police-storm-bahrain-demonstration-camp
