12:17 PM - Public!!**!! . The Pearl Revolution, as it was called, sought to emulate the Arab Spring uprisings that were sprouting throughout the region and would lead to the toppling of dictators in Egypt, Libya and Yemen. Today, the traffic circle in the capital of Manama known as Pearl Square, where many pro-democracy rallies were held, is guarded by police and ringed with barbed wire. The protesters are gone, crushed by police and troops sent by fellow monarchs in Saudi Arabia. Critics of the regime are now being jailed unjustly, says Amnesty International.
