“brothers and sisters
You know that human rights are considered a national success story in the Kingdom of Bahrain through the joint efforts of official and non-governmental organizations supported by the visions of His Majesty the King. It is also based on the National Action Charter that was adopted to protect all our rights, strengthen the rule of law and protect human rights through freedoms, tolerance, social coexistence and respect for others. Human rights in Bahrain are a cultural heritage and part of the social culture of Bahrainis. But despite the honorable human reality that is proven by clear facts, there are media allegations that try to harm national achievements. These allegations invite discord and sectarianism. It is undoubtedly an incendiary means that spreads chaos. We have questions, Who does this negative media approach serve? Is it a service to the enemy?
There is no doubt that it does not serve the interest and unity of the peoples of the region. Platforms, media channels, and those who hide behind their disgraceful news must know that chaos will not return. We will not allow her to return. Rejected in Bahrain. Thank God, the people of Bahrain are united and will not care about these news or voices. Through our history and experiences we have learned how to deal with crisis and get out of it, we are better. We are more aware of how we manage our internal affairs. We work together in the spaces of love and royal love for His Majesty. The best person to implement His Majesty’s visions and future inspirations is His Royal Highness Prince Salman bin Hamad Al Khalifa, Crown Prince and Prime Minister. Dedication and patriotism remain the turning points in overcoming the crisis. Gulf security in light of rapid regional and global changes requires all energies to strengthen unity to protect our people and our vital achievements. Our national media represents the front of the world through a unified strategy. Finally, under such a situation, I assure that years of misinformation will not change the familial ties between citizens and joint families of our country because they are more important than such news and denigrating media. May God preserve our tolerant national human identity under the leadership of His Majesty the King. Peace, mercy and blessings of God.”
