(Ahlul Bayt News Agency) - Rodney Shakespeare, chairman of the Committee against Torture in Bahrain in London, told Press TV in an interview that the Bahraini rulers “are not true kings. They are maniac killers.”
“They will go down in history as scum. Think of it what a true king is: it is someone who stands for all their people against foreign invaders.”
Shakespeare also commented on the “US-ordered” Saudi role in the ongoing crisis in Bahrain.
“When [Secretary of State Hillary] Clinton said that Bahrain has a right to invite foreign troops in, the meaning is any country, including America, can invite foreign troops in to kill its own citizens, and the meaning of that is the American government has got the right to kill Americans.”
Bahrain has been the scene of nationwide anti-government protests since February 14.
Saudi troops have also entered the Persian Gulf island to help the government crack down hard on the popular movement.
The protests have left at least 25 people martyred and more than 1,000 others wounded so far.
