The first night of my visit to Cuba in 1997 a group of young people struck up a conversation with me as a I walked by. At one point someone started making some loud–enough–for–me–to–hear nasty comments about all of the things Americans were doing to Cuba. The young man I was talking to shot him a look and said to me (and him, of course), “Most of us in my country can tell the difference between you and your government.”
Bahrain police injured in IED attack
A BBC report which suggests IIRC this is the first IED attack on the police:
Quote:
Seven policemen have been injured in a "terrorist attack" in the Bahraini village of Akr, the country's public security chief has told state media.

In my limited reading the police have faced petrol bombs aplenty and been injured, but have not faced an IED attack:http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-middle-east-17076387
