Maybe he will just buy Bahrain, and pay the citizens to elect him president. :y :D
After all, he did buy himself a British Prime Minister not that long ago. Although Tony,s principles were always up for grabs to the first bidder. ;)

I think the future of the F1 in Bahrain is a very small matter in the scheme of what is going down there, and other Middle Eastern countries.

Oil prices went up today on the back of these latest troubles! ::) ::)  We have a very rough road to go down both domestically and internationally :( :( :(

And Iran now has a couple of frigates sailing up the Suez canal, just to help ease the tension of course. ::) ;)

* this is the first time Iranian vessels have sailed on the Suez canal since the Islamic revolution, more than 30 years ago.
