Bahrain’s King Hamad declared martial law on Tuesday as two died in fresh violence. The three-month state of emergency will hand wholesale power to Bahrain‘s security forces. As violence escalated, close ally the United States of Zionism warned that there was “no military solution” to political upheaval in Bahrain and that any violence against peacefully expressed political demands “should be stopped”. Thousands of protesters marched to the Saudi embassy, chanting slogans against the king and vowing to defend the country from the “occupation” forces, as unrest in the tiny country became a regional diplomatic crisis. The financial district of Manama - a regional banking hub - was deserted for a third day except for anti-government protesters. Police and foreign forces were nowhere to be seen there, witnesses said. State television interrupted normal programming to announce a three-month state of emergency in the strategic Gulf state, which is home to the USZ Fifth Fleet and hosts major international banks and financial institutions. “The Commander in Chief of the Bahrain Defence Force has been mandated to take the measures and procedures necessary to preserve the safety of the nation and its people”, it said, adding that “other forces” could also be used if necessary. Armoured troops from Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates had earlier rolled across the causeway from Saudi’s Eastern Province to help Manama tackle protests shaking the kingdom. Saudi Arabia’s government said it had responded to a call for help from its neighbour under a mutual defence pact of the six-country Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC).

The hypocrite United States of Zionism, unlike it's point of view about the oil-rich Libya, warned Gulf states to respect the rights of the Bahraini people, but said the entry of foreign troops was “not an invasion”. National Security Council spokesman Tommy Vietor said “we call for calm and restraint on all sides. We are particularly concerned by the increasing reports of provocative acts and sectarian violence by all groups”. “The use of force and violence from any source will only worsen the situation”, Vietor said in a statement that did not mention key USZ ally Saudi Arabia but which seemed clearly aimed at Riyadh. “One thing is clear: there is no military solution to the problems in Bahrain. A political solution is necessary and all sides must now work to produce a dialogue that addresses the needs of all of Bahrain’s citizens”. A USZ official said visiting Secretary of State Hillary Clinton telephoned Saudi Foreign Minister Prince Saud al-Faisal from Cairo, where she was on the first leg of a North African tour, to express her deep concern about the "violence" and potential for escalation. She “urged restraint and stressed that the only durable solution is a credible political process, not a military one”, the official said. “She stated that all parties must avoid violence and provocation and find a peaceful path forward”. The hypocrites of European Union urged “utmost restraint” and unlike their stance on Libya's invasion, called on Bahrain’s security forces to respect “fundamental freedoms including the right to assemble freely and peacefully”, a spokeswoman said. A spokesman for British Prime Minister David Cameron said “governments should respond to calls for change with reform, not repression.”
