Bahraini opposition a decade later

© Getty Images Ten years after an opposition uprising erupted in Bahrain, the myth that Iran was backing opposition activists has become reality and it is troubling not only for Bahrain but for the United States, which has based its Fifth Fleet there for more than six decades. Bahrain’s uprising of March 2011 unlike rebellions then gripping other Arab countries was largely nonviolent. It was led by a moderate Shi’a group, al Wafeq National Islamic Society, which had participated in Bahraini politics and cooperated with the government for years. Nevertheless, Bahraini officials advanced a media narrative of the uprising as a violent Shi’a resistance movement inspired by Iranian meddling, which prompted participating Sunni Bahrainis to abandon the uprising. It also served as a rationale for Saudi troops to intervene and crush the uprising, further enraging protesters.
