Tunisia: Arab Spring 2?

(Sidi Bouzid) In the city where the Arab Spring took off, hundreds of protesters took to the streets this evening demanding the resignation of the Islamist government.

However, unlike the previous so called dictatorship which soon stepped down without much of a fight, the current incumbents sent in the riot police to ensure that the peaceful protesters had a night to remember. Which is why 5 people were injured and 2 arrested.
