Iranian state-run media say thousands of Iranians took part in protests denouncing plans for a union between Saudi Arabia and Bahrain.

Authorities had called on citizens to take part in the protests on May 18 against what the Iranian government has called an "American plan to annex Bahrain to Saudi Arabia."

State-run television footage showed demonstrators in Tehran shouting anti-American slogans.

An influential cleric, Ayatollah Kazem Sediqi, in a sermon broadcast live, denounced the planned union as an "ill-fated plot."

Tensions between Iran and U.S.-allied Gulf Arab states have been running high, with Arab leaders accusing Shi'ite-led Iran of fomenting unrest in majority Shi'ite Bahrain, which is ruled by a minority Sunni monarchy.

Saudi Arabia last year sent troops to Bahrain to help crush a Shi'ite uprising.

Saudi Arabia and Bahrein talk about interference...? Was it not Saudi troops troops which helped to crush the Shiite demonstrations in Bahrein.
Even the purported symbol at pearl square was demolished. Why should Shiites in the world turn a blind eye to events in Arabic nations where Shiites get killed and tortured just for choosing to demonstrate against the rulers?
History and events in several countries like Pakistan and Afghanistan, for instance, show that Sunni fundamentalists do not accept Shiites as equal...They regard them as "kafir"...just look at the image that won the Pulitzer prize 2012...
Where is Iranian interference in Bahrein? I havent heard of any Iranian soldier crossing the border, I havent heard of any fighter coming from Iran or Lebanon...
Look at Mali, Syria, Bahrein...there, Sunni fighters with a specific ideology try to either topple the respective governments, conquer territory, commit attacks against the population...
the Iranian government is far from being angels...for the time being though there was no report on Iranian tanks or Iranian sponsored terrorist attacks in Bahrein or Saudi Arabia...
Bahrein's majority is Shiite...like it or not...even if Saudi Arabia annexes Bahrein, it still will be Shiite dominated...or is their any intention to cleanse Bahrein ethnical-religiously...?

funny article about funny Iranians. What on earth does Iran (non Arabs) have to do with (Arabs) Bahrain and Saudi? Who are they to protest? They aren't in a GCC union to begin with. It is NON OF THEIR BUSINESS frankly speaking. They are talking on behalf of Islam? Give me a break. If they really want to fight for Muslims, they should go to Israel and help the Muslims there. They took over Sharjah Islands in 1971 and now they want to take over Bahrain? History repeats itself. Iraq tried to do that to Kuwait in 1990-1991, but they failed; thanks to the US. I pray for the same to happen in this story.

First in history, this worldwide crisis was provoked through
a terror event (9/11) plotted by a US president, George Bush.
This was to destabilize the equilibrium of all Countries
and trigger a chain of events almost unavoidable.

The New World Order is described on a manuscript
and its new publication is forbidden all over the World.

The next "surprises" will publicly unveil this Plan

Many simultaneous rebellions stirred up in Arab Countries
will benefit in the end only the State of Israel
with the expansion of its territory
while...
in Europe and in the US, the financial resources "like magic"
will disappear through bailouts, tax cuts and elaborated emergency maneuvers which will be ruled only to appear beneficial for those Countries but instead are appositely designed for their collapse
(except for England that will push Europe over the precipice).

Massive poverty will bring chaos and anarchy
while the lack of effective governments will set the stage for one
World Tyranny

It will be just from chaos that one voice will rise
with the promise to fix all and everyone.
That will be the forked tongue of the
New World Order

The
Ego
of the Zionists
will want to turn our World into
their own pyramid while this greedy Plan will
remain well hidden behind one "prophecy" of the Bible.

This prophecy draws the structure of the New World Order
or,
all Countries of the World will have their local dictators
which will also be the servants of one new World's "Pharaoh"
chosen and worshiped by the Zionists as if was that "Messiah"
long awaited by the Jews that could become at last the
"chosen people" of a Greater Israel as described in the Bible

Without the need of a crystal ball and without a doubt,
there is one Plan for the largest robbery of all times
attempted by these criminals masked as politicians or businessmen.

These types of conspiracy theories - there are a few variations on a common theme - have been around for over 50 years now, and the world seems no closer to the take-over. I suggest you either provide some evidence to support what you are saying, or stop para-phrasing what you have read on websites run by the fundamentalist "Christian Taliban".

US government is trying to save its minion - Bahraini Sunni dictatorship which murders and tortures majority Shia Muslims. US government supports and sponsors terrorist Sunni regimes throughout the region
