At this point the looters are going after European Owned businesses who were in bed with the Ben Ali regime or property of the Ben Ali family.<br /><br />Looting these places is seen as a good thing by most tunisians (and myself). But you would have to be suicidal to try and loot any mom and pop business in my neighborhood.<br /><br />Furthermore don't get it twisted. IT IS NOT THE ARMY SUPPORTING BEN ALI. IT IS ELEMENTS OF THE POLICE.<br /><br />Living in Tunisia, i have grown to HATE dealing with tunisian institutions, however the army is rare and welcome exception.<br /><br />The Soldiers,from the generals to the rank and file guys hate the Ben Ali regime and have been really helping the people out. They might try to seize power later, but as of right now they are the best chance Tunisia has.methalifhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07415873218798785412noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3418634036332037820.post-69583323456771095812011-01-16T03:28:02.758-08:002011-01-16T03:28:02.758-08:00Thanks for your updates - it's good to get a f...Thanks for your updates - it's good to get a feel for what's really happening on the streets.ceedeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15814110604053207363noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3418634036332037820.post-57212200766469994212011-01-16T00:30:54.517-08:002011-01-16T00:30:54.517-08:00Noah,

Perhaps your friends in Tunisia would enjoy this old standby, just the message for M Ben Ali.<br /><br />http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ST8z3cuHi5gPeter Attwoodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01584071300152377363noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3418634036332037820.post-14100008083159674772011-01-15T18:18:01.880-08:002011-01-15T18:18:01.880-08:00Keep up the great posts.

In instances where the neccessary breakdown of authority occurs, it is right for citizens to take up collective strength to protect their families and property. The looters are the immoral people who see not a revolution but an oppotunity to steal.They will be problematic until they find every neighborhood protected by citizen groups and, so it would appear, the police. However, it sounds like the police will have their arms full with various army groups attempting to preserve the old regime. It is a highly volatile situation. It goes without saying that you must be very careful. Your blogs, photos, and video are bravely done and invaluable. I will hope for a cease of hostilities and your safety."Simplifried"https://www.blogger.com/profile/02593184931318391388noreply@blogger.com
