TUNISIA - The American impresses most Tunisians

Hard times for Western diplomacy in this era of revolution in Tunisia. A question raised by a colleague the Ambassador of France: "What lesson of France will not give us now" (and that was a bit mad!). One of us could, March 17, if the press conference was held at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, to ask that question to Mrs.

Clinton: "What America invent new threat to keep Tunisia on a leash?" [One hundred people opposed to the arrival of Hillary Clinton in Tunisia had organized a sit-in outside the headquarters of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs where draconian security measures were put in place, giving rise to tensions between the teams Tunisian and American security.

The conference finally took place at the Prime Minister at the Kasbah after more than three hours late]. Uncle Sam has made bin Laden and his eyes, Ben Ali "was justified" because it represented "a bulwark against the fundamentalist movement, or what he called terrorism". And then, the Tunisians will not forget that Washington took its time to applaud the Revolution Tunisia.

And now that things are becoming clearer in the eyes of the White House, Mrs. Clinton said "the U.S. commitment to support the democratic transition of Tunisia, politically and financially." Politically, we know that America, a country of bipartisanship that would be very comfortable if a hundred political parties settled on the chessboard in order to respect the sensitivities.

And woe to flay religious sensitivities! But financially, it is unclear how it will make the Americans. That said, the U.S. approach remains the same: his diplomacy is inevitably to brandish threats. According to Al-Qaeda, that Hillary Clinton stirred the Gaddafi. "Tunisia is well known that if Gaddafi does not go away, it is very likely to cause trouble at home, in Egypt and to anyone else, is his nature," she said on Nesma TV.

That sounds like blackmail. It's like she asked to Tunisia - as she had alluded to Egypt [where Hillary Clinton went on 15 and 16 March] - to help overthrow Gaddafi. And then we do not really know what came to Mrs. Clinton. We did it bring? Unless it has come to take at home, the temperature of Libya.

As for the parody of his press conference, she will be remembered. Nice sampling of freedom of expression. It is true that she could not move at ease, like a few years back, at Sidi Bousaïd, center Ettadhamen associations and through a certain mafia ... Leila Ben Ali.
