This report discusses the cultural and religious history of Bahrain, which was distinguished by being an urban habitat for a stable agricultural, marine, and commercial community. Sitting astride the significant shipping lane of the Arabian Gulf, as opposed to the neighboring des- erts, Bahrain became a destination for immigrants flock- ing from different regions of the Gulf, and even beyond. It further explores the fact that Bahrain was a haven for various religions since the ancient times, where the followers of the three religions of “Islam, Christianity and Judaism” coexisted with the adherents of other religions in harmony and love.

Office: +44 20 3540 0434 www.max-security.com Month Day, Year Executive Summary Across the Middle East and North Africa, tensions remain high amidst political turmoil across the region, linked largely to upcoming elections in various states and concerns over spillover from the Syrian conflict. In Libya, despite the impending end to oil terminal blockades in the restive eastern regions, anti-government sentiments continue to rise amidst persistent insecurity, resulting in ten-day civil disobedience campaigns in Tripoli and Benghazi. In Egypt, Muslim Brotherhood protests continue on a weekly basis, while displaying an increasingly violent nature, particularly following the resignation of former Field Marshal Abdel Fatah al-Sisi ahead of his bid for the presidency. In Tunisia, meanwhile, crackdowns on extremist preachers and mosques sparked clashes in outlying areas, while security forces continue to dismantle militant cells in urban areas, most recently in Sfax. Finally, in Algeria, unrest in outlying areas persists in the lead up to April HIGH17 RISKpresidential elections, with concerns rising over a possible escalation in anti- government protest campaigns in the event of incumbent President Bouteflika's expected victory. Meanwhile in the Eastern Mediterranean, tensions peaked in the Israeli-Palestinian peace process, highlighted by Israel's cancellation of a fourth prisoner release and the Palestinian Authority's application for membership in numerous international conventions. In addition, Islamic State of Iraq and al-Sham militants continue to entrench their positions outside of Baghdad, amidst concerns over rising violence ahead of parliamentary elections on April 30.
