Now Bahrain!

When will the pro-democracy protests end? Now in Bahrain...you can read more at Juan Cole. (Hat tip to Tdaxp).
Tens of thousands marched on Friday in one of Bahrain's largest opposition demonstrations to demand democratic reforms in the pro-Western Gulf Arab state...The peaceful march, called by the Shiite-led opposition, follows unsuccessful talks with the Government on constitutional reforms to give greater powers to parliament's elected assembly, which is on an equal footing with a state-appointed chamber.
