    Artical Name : Vision from Within Artical Subject : Where is Tunisia Heading? Publish Date: 21/01/2018 Auther Name: Kamal Ben Younis Subject : Tunisian authorities managed to deal with the protests, which erupted in a number of cities and poor neighborhoods in the capital, after ³government announced an increase in value-added tax and social contributions in the budget.´However, the calm situation may be temporary if the authorities do not succeed in finding radical solutions to the problems, which angered youths. Those youth for seven years now have been threatening of a ³new revolution´that topples the new political elite whom they accuse of failing to achieve the main goals of their revolution which developed in January 2011.So where is Tunisia heading seven years after President Zine El Abidine Ben Ali was toppled? Will the parties which triggered these new confrontations with the security forces succeed in launching what they call ³a second revolution´"Or will the opposite happen? Will the current political regime witness any substantial changes especially that it has been internationally supported for several reasons including that many western countries bet on the success of the ³Tunisian exception in transitioning towards democracy?´Separation from YouthsSome of those who oppose the government, mainly the opposition leaders of leftist, nationalist and Baathist groups that are involved in the Popular Front, which is led by Hamma Hammami and Ziad Lakhdhar, think that the increased protests against the governments, which have governed since January 2011, is proof that they cannot achieve the revolution¶s aims regarding jobs, dignity. That is because the government cannot liberate its measures from the International Monetary Fund¶s directions and from the agendas of financial lobbies that are involved in corruption, trafficking and imposing a capitalist policy.

Perhaps it is too early to talk of anything .a..prs-Bourquiba. At one of the Patti Socialiste Destourien congresses the now deposed leader once remarked that he would continue to leave his mark on the country for centuries after his departure. The remark was vintage Bourguiba: an extravagantly hyperbolic statement that hinted at his loss of political acumen, but with an undercurrent of truth no one could, deny. The bronze statue at the Place d:Afrique still stands; the marble bust in the garden of the music academy on Rue de France has not been removed. Everywhere one travels throughout the country there is still the omnipresent Avenue Bourguiba. But the planned Cite Bourguiba and the proected new mausoleum for the Supreme Commander have been shelved without much fanfare. The unavoidable daily pictures in La Presse and the five minute reruns of his old speeches have disappeared.

An enthusiastic US President Donald Trump lauded Saudi King Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud’s “very wise decision” to make Crown Prince Mohammed first in line to the throne. “The relationship is probably the strongest it’s ever been,” said Trump. “We understand each other.” For Riyadh, which has advocated a more hard-line US position on Iran, recent senior personnel changes in Washington are likely to further an- chor US opposition to Tehran’s am- bitions and might seal the fate of the Iran nuclear deal.

    Mohamed Ali Eltaher - Biography www.eltaher.org Why This Website? While history influences the lives of individuals, individuals also influence history. If it used to be said during the lifetime of this man that “The sun never sets on two things: The British Empire, and the newspaper published by Mohamed Ali Eltaher”; there is a good reason to stop and note. This website tells the story of Mohamed Ali Eltaher (also known by his traditional Arab nickname, Aboul-Hassan). It is also the story of his wife. It provides the sources and references needed for those who are interested to learn more about him, and, more importantly, to learn about the history of the Near East and North Africa between 1912 and 1974, and the political and historical issues of the countries spanning from Morocco to Iraq, and Eltaher at the entrance to "Dar Ashoura" from Syria to Indonesia. Those who know Egypt through the writings of in Cairo - 1954 Lawrence Durrell and Konstantin Kavafi and other famous Western writers, will be able to have a glimpse of that side of Egypt these talented writers did not write about. The website offers first-hand original material, written in the context, spirit and style of its time. Some material is either unpublished or out of print. It was compiled by individuals who have known or lived many of the stories told, or issues discussed, and by others who have known of, or met many of the persons appearing in the photographs featured in the website. The site would appeal to an interested reader, student, historian, academic, journalist, homme de lettres, or diplomat, without forgetting those seeking action-packed adventures.
