Ecclestone says the show must go on

It's the circus that Bernie built, and it's on view this weekend from Bahrain.

Also on view are protesters in the thousands taking advantage of the fact that the world's gaze will be on their country because of a Grand Prix.

Bahrain is one of those Arab dictatorships we don't have a problem with because the ruling family is safely in our pocket.

Apparently a good slice of the local populace is unhappy with the ruling family precisely because they are in our pocket.

Yesterday a protest leader was beaten to death by Bahraini security forces.

But the show must go on!
