Historic Jewish Community In Tunisia
Jews and Muslims have coexisted for hundreds of years on Tunisia’s Djerba island, but while relations between the two are good, some members of the tiny Jewish community say the atmosphere is stifling.
Before independence in 1956, Tunisia had a Jewish population of nearly 100,000.
But waves of emigration saw that number plummet, a trend accelerated by the Arab-Israeli conflict which fuelled discrimination. And this year, just before the annual pilgrimage to the Ghriba synagogue on Djerba, a controversy split Tunisia’s political establishment with several parties demanding Israelis be barred from entering the country.
Amid the dispute, the authorities did not scrimp on security around the Hara Kbira and Africa’s oldest synagogue, which was targeted by a suicide bombing in 2002 that killed 21 people.

Turkish Cops Harass CNN Reporter Live On Air
A CNN correspondent was harassed by Turkish plainclothes police as he was live on air, reporting on tensions between the officers and demonstrators on the first anniversary of mass protests in Istanbul.
International correspondent Ivan Watson had just finished explaining that police had closed off central Istanbul to prevent demonstrators from being able to lay flowers at the sight of last year's protests when he himself was manhandled by officers.
Viewers of CNN International on Saturday morning watched as officers demanded to see Watson's press credentials and passport, as well as those of his crew. The camera kept rolling as the officers grabbed Watson and started walking with him. One officer kneed him in the back. They also broke the microphone off CNN's camera while wrestling it out of the hands of the cameraman.
Watson and his team were escorted in police custody. Police officers argued that Watson's press accreditation, issued by the Turkish prime ministry, could have been "counterfeited" and that he had to produce a passport. He was not permitted to leave until the passport was retrieved from the nearby CNN bureau. But officers didn't arrest him. According to Watson, after about a half-hour, the CNN team was released, and another officer apologized for the officer who had kneed him. Police also apologized for the inconvenience.

Goat Hitches a Ride
The next time you have to cram on to a train with a heavy suitcase, or catch a crowded bus carrying shopping, spare a thought for this man who cycled across Addis Ababa with a goat on his back.
Video of the unknown man giving a piggyback to a goat in the Ethiopian capital went viral yesterday. As stunned drivers look on, the man calmly pedals down the busy road, seemingly unaware that there is anything amiss
