Al-Wifaq

Of course, sectarianism in Bahrain is a ploy by the House of Khalifah.  But I do think that the Bahraini opposition is ill-served by Al-Wifaq.  Its accommodation with the regime and its lack of aggressive behavior against the House of Khalifah and against the House of Saud is an indication of its sectarian composition and framework which makes it act defensively.  Fortunately, the Bahraini youth has moved far ahead of Al-Wifaq, and that is a good thing.
