Bahrain Mirror: Bahrain accused Qatar of officially standing behind calls for protests at the Pearl Roundabout in February 2011, the Bahrain News Agency (BNA) reported.

BNA claimed that Qatar created social media accounts that published false stories on Bahrain Forum that called on demonstrators to take to the streets and to stage its conspiracy on 14 February 2011.

"Qatar ignited the first sparks of chaos and sabotage in Bahrain, used social media to sow sedition and strife through a fully-fledged conspiracy that was financed by Qatar and backed by its hostile media channels coinciding with the so-called ‘Arab Spring,'" BNA added.

It said that cyber security investigations led to the account which had been created via Qatar's Internet Protocol (IP) service.

The state agency further stated that the Qatari Amiri Diwan, Amiri Guard and the Ministry of Interior intensively accessed the suspicious over-politicized hostile Bahraini opposition websites that called for riots and rallies in Manama to weaken the state and ignite the flames of sectarianism as well as divide the country's communities to accomplish the big conspiracy and to overthrow the constitutional regime of Bahrain.

It is noteworthy that the said account called for protesting at the Pearl Roundabout which witnessed a rally in which over 200,000 demonstrators took part and demanded putting an end to the ruling Al Khalifa family's monopoly over power and a peaceful shift in power.

The pro-democracy protests were crushed by force with Saudi and Emirati assistance.
