Tunisians sceptical of new govt - Africa The announcement of a new 'unity government' by Mohamed Ghannouchi, the Tunisian prime minister, has been met with anger by some protesters, who say too many members of ousted President Zine El Abidine Ben Ali's party remain in power.

Up to 1,000 protesters gathered mainly near Tunis' Habib Bourguiba Avenue to demonstrate against the announcement. Tanks and troops were deployed, and water cannons and tear gas fired against activists who demanded that members of Ben Ali's Constitutional Democratic Rally (CDR) be excluded from the new government. "Who did the revolt? Al Jazeera's correspondent Ayman Mohyeldin said protesters were "rejecting the possibility that any incoming or caretaker or national unity government could possibly have figures or leaders from the previous regime".

Whatfinger – Whatfinger News 10 ways I got sucked into buying the 9/11 cover story By Craig McKee On Sept. 11, 2001, I was part of the majority. I believed that Osama bin Laden had led a group of Islamic fundamentalists to crash planes into the World Trade Center and the Pentagon. There were many things that made me accept this, but mostly it was because I believed what I saw on TV. I believed that the attacks – while reprehensible – were a logical result of America’s imperialist policies around the world. This made me and people who agreed with me valuable dupes for the real criminals. Despite being fooled about 9/11, there were some things that made me immediately suspicious that morning. But even with that doubt, I didn’t seriously doubt the official story. In a way, it’s surprising to me I could be so naive. But the lie was so massive I couldn’t see it. As I came to realize later, there were individual elements of the official story that were positively essential for maintaining the fake terrorist scenario. Most of us won’t make the effort.
