Bahraini Shia leader says supports royal family
By: Ali Al-Qadumi
MANAMA, Bahrain: Sheikh Ali Salman, Bahrain's main Shi'ite
opposition party leader said on Sunday his goal was to help bring
political reform, rejecting accusations of taking orders from Iran or
seeking to install Shi'ite religious rule.
The head of the opposition group Wefaq said his party backed the Al
Khalifa family as rulers and wanted to help the government with
constitutional reforms.
In an interview, Salman told Reuters: "We said we want a
constitutional monarchy, not a republic. We are for a gradual move to
a democratic system, so we are not against the ruling family."
"We have national demands that have nothing to do with Iran. We are
proud of being a sensible, mature and progressive political movement
that doesn't need to take instructions from Iran or any other
country."

"Knowledge is
better than wealth because it protects you while you have to
guard wealth. it decreases if you keep on spending it but the
more you make use of knowledge ,the more it increases . what you
get through wealth disappears as soon as wealth disappears but
what you achieve through knowledge will remain even after you."MORE
