Bahrain: Names you shouldnt forget

1953 The Cuban Revolution- Che Guevara 

He was Argentinian, not Cuban. Although he was not the leader of the revolution, his name is still printed in every memory. He didnt fight as much either, Fidel Castro was the field leader and Che received orders from him. 

1977 The Iranian Revolution- Imam Khomeini

He was in exile during the revolt that started years earlier, he lectured in Najaf and in Paris. Iranians listened to every word he said. Yet again, he didnt fight in the field though he lost his son in the uprising. 

2011 The Tunisian Revolution- Mohammed Bouazizi

This young man didnt even see the fight, he set himself on fire in the late 2010 and was the spark for the whole country to hit the street in mass demonstrations. The revolution succeeded and his lived again. 

Those courageous revolutionaries have done very little in comparison to those who died freeing their countries, but they will never be forgotten! Bahrain should be no difference...

2011 Bahrain- Ayat alGhormozi, Mohammed alBuflasah

Young and talented girl, she showed great courage to stand on the stage and publicly criticise  the prime minister Khalifa Bin Salman in a poem (half of Bahrain can recite it off by heart). 

He, alBuflasah is different story! He shut every mouth that accused the revolution of being sectarian with foreign agenda and he was the very first prisoner shortly after he stepped down from the stage. 

Your names should be written in gold, engraved in every honest heart in Bahrain. I salute both of you!
