Video:
Activist Moosa Mohammed climbed onto some nearby scaffolding in order to get on the roof of the embassy to unfurl a banner to protest at some executions going ahead in Bahrain. He says the embassy staff beat him up and were cutting the cables to the satellite dish so that they could tie his limbs up and toss him off the roof. The activists were warning the police they'd treat him like Jamal (the journalist killed in Turkish Embassy of Saudi).
In an unpresented move, the Metropolitan Police decided to break down the door to the embassy and rushed to the roof to save Moosa. The police in the UK have never entered an embassy before (they are not really supposed to enter any embassy without permission). Again, this is unprecedented.
There's a reason this didn't really make the news. Remember, the people in that embassy are there to represent people who are good friends of the Clintons, the Trumps, the Obamas, etc. I think I'd much rather be friends with the extraordinarily brave Moosa Mohammed than the Saudi stooge known as the King of Bahrain. But that's just me.
