" I was targeted because I was exercising my right to defend human rights, which is a right that is stipulated by the Bahraini constitution."Bahrainis protest daily for fundamental rights they're denied. Many languish unjustly in prison. Nothing in sight suggests change. Struggling for it risks personal freedom and death.
Rajab, Alkhawaja, Al-Tajer, and other human rights leaders inspire them to continue. Expect commitment that strong to prevail. Sustained courage yields results. Bahrainis believe it and won't stop protesting for equity, justice, and real democratic change.
