The world has gone insane.
Six protesters were killed today in the capital of Bahrain, hundreds injured.
Bahrain's military imposed on Wednesday a curfew from 4 p.m. to 4 a.m. (9 a.m. to 9 p.m. EST) across a large swathe of the capital Manama, and banned all public gatherings and demonstrations across the country.
The announcement, made by a military officer in a live television appearance, came after the youth movement called for a protest at 3:30 p.m.
The curfew covers the area from Bahrain's Seef Mall and covers the main thoroughfare through the Pearl roundabout and the financial district to the diplomatic area.
