Kim Kardashian’s Bahrain Visit Sparks Protests From Islamists

Just hours after reality TV star Kim Kardashian gushed about her impressions of Bahrain, riot police had to fire tear gas to disperse more than 50 hardline Islamic protesters denouncing her presence in the Gulf kingdom.
The clashes took place just before Kardashian opened the Bahrain branch of her Millions of Milkshakes shop.
In case you’re not familiar with it, here is a promotional video from the website:
An Associated Press journalist saw protesters chanting “God is Great” near the shopping complex in Riffa, some 20 kilometers (12 miles) south of the capital Manama.
However, police were able to clear the demonstrators before Kardashian appeared late Saturday.
As TheBlaze reported on Friday, a number of conservative lawmakers in the region attempted to pass a resolution preventing Kardashian from even stepping foot in the country. However, Kardashian’s tweet about Bahrain being “the prettiest place on earth” was re-tweeted by the country’s foreign minister.
Here are a few of the reality television star’s other tweets about Bahrain:

Kardashian’s Bahrain trip followed a recent visit to Kuwait to open another branch of “Millions of Milkshakes,” and she reportedly faced a similar backlash there.
​The Associated Press contributed to this report.

Posted on December 2, 2012 at 2:04amKim would never move there. There aren’t “gang bangers” there. She has an attraction to the dark side if ya know what I mean. Just check out here sex tape she made a few years back. Too bad those Islamic cavemen there don’t declare Jihad on her. I think their reaction to her shows their problem with the US. They don’t like her degenerate culture she’s trying to bring to their country.

Posted on December 1, 2012 at 7:59pmHow ironic, early next spring I’ll be opening a new chain of restaurants in Bahrain and Kuwait myself. ‘Omar’s Pulled Pork’ will be similar to the eastern Carolina style barbeque we all love. Instead of a vinegar base sauce, Omar’s will introduce their own new and improved down home humus base sauce… Mmm, Mmm!!!

Posted on December 1, 2012 at 10:59pmShe is a reality TV “star” that is known for her leaked sex tape with rapper Ray J. Apparently there is a second one now available. Kardashian is also famous for her 72 day marriage to Kris Humphries. The marriage was rumored to be a publicity stunt for her but not for him. Basically she used him.

Posted on December 1, 2012 at 7:23pmLOCAL LAWS & CUSTOMS
Bahrain is a socially liberal state, but many Bahrainis are conservative and find revealing clothing or immoderate behavior in public offensive. It is best to dress conservatively except within the confines of hotels or clubs, at least until you know your way around.
Religious and social sensitivities should be observed and respected, especially during the religious festivals of the Shia community when black flags and banners may be in evidence. Be aware of significant Muslim holidays, and note that Bahrainis observe a number of religious anniversaries that may not be celebrated in neighboring Gulf countries.
Respect local traditions, customs, laws and religions at all times and be aware of your actions to ensure that they do not offend other cultures or religious beliefs, especially during the holy month of Ramadan or if you intend to visit religious areas.
Do not bring video cassettes or DVDs into the country, as these may be withheld on arrival at the airport.
Homosexual behaviour is illegal in Bahrain.
Always carry identification. You might be asked to produce it at any time.
———————————————————————————————
Muslim cultures expect others to respect the Laws & customs of their Countries, yet they don’t respect the customs of non-Muslim Countries. Instead they try to change another Country’s customs to their liking.
