Tunisia's army clashed with armed gangs in the capital and remnants of ousted President Zine El Abidine Ben Ali's personal guard Sunday as an opposition figure said leaders have agreed on a new

Government troops appeared to have retaken the presidential palace in the seaside suburb of Carthage by Sunday evening, but sporadic gunfire continued around the neighborhood as night fell, said Mohamad Guiga, a nearby resident.
"It is a battle zone," Guiga told CNN by telephone from his home, about 1 kilometer away from the palace. "From time to time, we hear some shooting. The fire is very clear," he added.

Africa is not strategically important to the U.S. That is why we rarely send troops there. Not that we should. Capitalism is the best weapon against war.
the Honorable George W. Bush wasthe greatest president next to the Honorable Ronald Reagan. Mr. Reagan was the best president in the recent history! he built up the military at a time it was needed. the military should be just as large now as it was then!
@America 1st: Yea, Reagan did such a great job he started us down the path to massive debt. George W. Bush, just put the final nail on the coffin.
