Operation Banner


The Saudi troops arrived last night in convoy over the causeway. They're here for an indefinate time period to provide back-up and support to Bahrain's police force.
Same scenario as August 1969 when British troops arrived in Northern Ireland for an indefinate time period to provide back-up and support to Northern Ireland's police force.
Do you know how long the British troops stayed?
38 years.

  1. I don't know what to say? Are you still happy to stay in Bahrain? I'm thinking of setting up my own company here, I'm fed up having no say in my career. Take care, S.
