 "This move is not propaganda," a Bahraini official said, "it reflects a climate of tolerance towards minorities in Bahrain." The official went on to say that Houda Nonoo's appointment stresses the seriousness of Bahrain's reform policies and shows that Bahrain does not differentiate between men and women in public offices and does not discriminate against citizens on the basis of their beliefs.</blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/970F92DF-A220-4AB5-A026-66384E91F87C/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content6.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
