Batelco proxy servers
UPDATE:
After having struck out with all other addresses I tried, I did a search for the admins in the whois info. Hussain seemed the most recent contributor to online discussion lists, so I fired off an e-mail to him. Got a reply today. He’s closing down the proxying. YES!!!
Actually, the e-mail address I ended up using isn’t the one in the whois info. Search for Hussain Makhlooq and you’ll find the one he uses for lists.

Please, can we somehow find someone in a country close to Bahrain to call the people responsible for running these misused open proxies?
Here’s the info:
193.188.105.17
193.188.105.16
I’ll delete duplicate or nonessential info. I believe the numbers outside some of the e-mail addresses are the dates they were added:
