Re: Uprisings in Bahrain....The next egypt?

How do you think the crackdowns will play out now that international media is really taking notice? It seems the White House is already trying to intervene. Yesterday the military stood down and left the main cities over there. Will this embolden the protesters, and push their cause. Or will it frighten then since the government already allegedly assassinating dissidents and will do so even more once coverage to die down.

It seems protest all over the middle east have been surging since the start of the year. Most of it has been completely unreported by the American media until egypt just got too big to Ignore. I just wonder if this is the new "in thing" for the media now. Seems like every reporter has jumped on the Egyptian story by now, and others are scouring the globe for their next big scoop.
