"If ye love wealth greater than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest for freedom, go home and leave us in peace. We seek not your council nor your arms. Crouch down and lick the hand that feeds you, and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen." - Samuel Adams

Yay Bahrain. The closest thing to consetual government in the Middle East has stood solidly behind the US efforts to go after terrorists. After turning down Palestinian professor Mazen Al Najjar for a visa following his deportation from the US, they have said that they will not accept anyone seeking refuge from international justice.

"This was thought to be a normal request for a normal person. But because there is a problem between him and the US these are not normal circumstances. "Bahrain will not be a place for entertaining people alleged to have terrorist links."

Now if only Europe would get the same attitude.
