If They Complain of Joblessness, Shoot Them

Tunisian government's unenviable repression of its people links the country uncomfortably to the worst of African life. This reaction to a demonstration against the joblessness that young people experience is clearly barbaric. It is despicable that soldiers would fire live weapons at civilians armed with Molotov cocktail. While elsewhere soldiers are involved in fighting wars to protect their citizens, in some African countries, soldiers fight wars against their own people. It's a shame! A country that aspires to be a part of a civilized world should have a better reaction to demonstrations.
