Tunisian Terrorist Attack
Discussion
At least 8 people have died. The only consolation is that the siege didn't last long and all hostages are now free.

Very sad. Lovely place Tunisia and lovely, lovely people. Certainly one of the more "liberal" Muslim states. Their constitution protects freedom of thoughts and religious beliefs (although the president must be Muslim). They even tried banning the hijab before the revolution.
I had hoped to return some time soon again, came close to booking a trip for the end of the Summer

"19 people were killed, including 17 tourists from Italy, Germany, Poland and Spain"
Nice country to visit as a tourist, been there twice. The locals are friendly and now going to suffer from people cancelling due to the extremists. So sad for them.
If you are going to Tunisia this year then please do. Show support. Same to be honest people going to Egypt, same happens there, but it is unlikely.
The extremists will wither in the long run if it effects money in peoples pockets, it always has been. Shame in the meantime though.
