Once again the people are massing in the streets of Tunisia calling for political reform. The Islamist al-Nahda party has angered the people of tunisia after the assassination of opposition lawmaker Mohammed Brahmi in july and much as been quite since then until this week as protesters were angered by the promised stepping down of the elected government of Prime Minister Ali Larayedh. He reniged on his promise to step down and now Tunisia will be the next nation in North Africa to see more conflict. While the army is not as powerful as it is in Egypt to step in and displace the government, there is no doubt these protests on the steps of Tunisia's assembly will continue and grow. Larayedh had harsh words for these protestors saying security forces will deal harshly with these terrorists. Does this sound familar. it seems that even freely elected governments can act has harshly as the dictators they replaces when a small minority of people take to the streets demanding and end to their short rule.
The fact is this man was elected unlike Bashir Assad and the opposition parties just need to organize and defeat the Muslims in elections in Tunisia. Society in Tunisia and the Arab spring are having a extremely difficult time adapting to the free election political process and I still say the est solution to the Arab springs and crisis is a two state solution throughout the entire Arab world. One secular and leftist and the other Islamist and both need to be left alone to rule with their best abilities All these European drawn countries need to go..
