You can’t invite foreign money in and then throw up your hands when their ideals come along with them, or when the people with the money including gay people, get upset at the idea that travelling with their partner may result in criminal fines or arrests.

Sounds like a lot but it’s not. Moreover, from what little I know about this, their gas is exceedingly difficult to get at. More-moreover, they’re in a region with gas giants like Qatar, Iraq, and Iran and even Kuwait (63), KSA (283), and Oman (24.4) has more gas than Bahrain. All in all (not even mentioning the political mess) it doesn’t seem like it’ll set the gas world alight anytime soon.

Could you expand on this? I had read before that Bahrain’s oil reserves had largely run out but I thought they had significant natural gas reserves.
