I'm really wondering how can anyone write such article with a straight face... it's comical.
Tunisia's enemies are spreading Fake News. No PM has been beaten. Tunisia is not a "Banana Sheikdom" but a true democracy. Tunisia President is a legal expert and a former Law Professor. Actually Tunisia is the only democracy in the whole region. Things will get in perfect order, according to my sources.

Tunisia is a smaller, less developed, poorer version of what we Turks call 'old Turkey'. In other words: Little Kemalistan. They even have an article within a supposedly democratic constitution to basically abandon the democratic system. Wtf...
Turkey is a suitable model for Tunisia but also for Libya after it stabilizes.

it's not a military coup d'état the constitution is not suspended in fact it was sort of according to constitution... well the article 80 is very open for interpretations and the constitutional court that determines the legality of the decision is not established thanks to the parliament.
Several Mideast sharks on this thread smelling blood . Lower your hopes, cuz Tunisia's Democracy is not gonna fall.

And now you will be under a dictatorship which will never, ever abuse its power.

But this time you won't be able to vote it out during the next election, but be doomed to live under it forever.

And you won't be able to exercise your much-vaunted "freedom of speech" against it. The moment you do you will be arrested.

But whatever, continue to celebrate your new overlords.
Why are you wishing doom and gloom to a country, Tunisia, you know nothing about, dude ?

Tunisians do speak Arabic, but are ethnically either Carthaginians or Berbers.

So it is not a coup? Ok lets wait and see wher it will end. I am curious.
Turkey would support Democracy in Tunisia, while the Arab regimes would support a Coup in Tunisia in order to install a Dictatorship there similar to their regimes.

Throughout my life, I breath and eat Tunisian politics since I was born. But here in this thread I am finding "Experts" on Tunisian politics who actually know very little, to not say nothing, about Tunisia and its politics and its people and its history. Crazy times we live in indeed.

The ancestors of Tunisia are the Carthaginians. Go visit the Carthage museum and ruins in Tunis city.

Tunisians identify themselves with the Carthaginian Empire, who during its time gave the greatest defeat to the Romans under General Hannibal. Today the Tunisia national football team is colloquially known as Les Aigles de Carthage (The Eagles of Carthage). The team represents Tunisia in international football since their maiden match in 1957.

Are you a real being or some type of robot ? Questioning people's cultures when we know nothing about yours. Present yourself to us and let us be the judges. Why don't you start with your educational background, that will be of great help.

Tunisia's Carthaginian history aside, the current event in Tunisia is not a Coup d’état. People can conspire all they want, but law and order will prevail in Tunisia which is the only Democracy that is part of the Arab League. I rest my case.
