بيان صادر عن ابرز العلماء المعتقلين في سجون النظام البحريني

حضرة بابا الفاتيكان المحترم نرحب بكم في أرض البحرين راعياً للسلام والإصلاح والعدالة. اعلم أن قدمك ستطأ أرضًا يٌرفع فيها شعار التسامح والتعايش إلا عن أبنائها وشعبها …https://t.co/PjHMelUAQG pic.twitter.com/M1v4jjPppR

In a statement on Tuesday, the scholars addressed the Pope of the Vatican as saying, “we know that you will set foot in a land where the slogan of tolerance and coexistence is raised for everyone except for its sons and people, and in which justice and charity are described, but injustice and aggression are practiced. The people of this land are killed, sons, and bereaved mothers, suffering injured, imprisoned, chased, and exiled. Those remaining in the homeland are patient. [...] International human rights organizations documented many violations against the people of this land.”

حضرة بابا الفاتيكان المحترم
أبناء هذه الأرض بين قتيل ضمه القبر وأم ثكلى، وجريح يعاني ومقيد غيبته السجون، وملاحق مطارد، ومنفي أخرج من دياره وأهله وباق في أرضه صابرا محتسبا، وقد وثق تقرير بسيوني وغيره من المنظمات الحقوقية العالمية الكثير من الانتهاكات التي تعرض لها أبناء هذه الارض pic.twitter.com/Dac80A0de3

"Holy Pope, achieving reform, justice and human dignity are the common goals of all heavenly messages, and they do not accept injustice against people or corruption in the country. These are goals that the people of this country have sought to achieve and have made enormous sacrifices for," the statement added.

"We hope that during your visit to this country you have a word of truth that responds to the call of faith and common sense, as the people of this country have coexisted with the people of the heavenly religions and others, and their past and present bear witness."
