  • 18 November 2019 the Honorable Justin Siberell United States
    18 November 2019 The Honorable Justin Siberell United States Embassy Manama Bldg 979, Road 3119, Block 331, Zinj P.O. Box 26431 Manama, Kingdom of Bahrain Ambassador Siberell, Americans for Democracy & Human Rights in Bahrain (ADHRB) writes to express our concern regarding the poor human rights situation in Bahrain and as way of follow up to a letter we sent in September expressing concern over your failure to advance human rights reforms in the kingdom. Previously we wrote to you highlighting the gap between your pledges during your confirmation hearing to raise human rights, and the lack of action on these issues by yourself and the United States (US) embassy. We remain deeply concerned by the US embassy’s lack of action on a number of issues, particularly its failure to publicly condemn ongoing religious discrimination and the targeting of Shia clerics and orators during Ashura, and its failure to publicly condemn Bahrain’s now-systematic practice of denying unconditional and unfettered healthcare to prisoners in need. We call upon you to fulfill the pledge you made two years ago that you would make human rights a priority, and to publicly voice your concern about these and other issues in Bahrain. As you are likely aware of Bahrain’s longstanding and systematic discrimination against its Shia majority community, and the way this discrimination manifests itself politically, in the media, in school textbooks and class lessons, and through official corruption, crony capitalism, deliberate and uneven development, and wealth disparities, we would like to raise more specific concerns surrounding the suppression of celebrations of the Shia month of Muharram, and Ashura, the tenth day of Muharram.
