Voting has begun in Tunisia in the first free election of the Arab Spring, nine months after the fall of former President Zinedine el Abidine Ben Ali.

Voters will elect a 217-seat assembly that will draft a new constitution and appoint an interim government.

Islamist party Ennahda is expected to win the most votes, though it is not clear if it will gain a majority.

=====================

But don't worry, guys! The article goes on to say the Ennahda party is a moderate islamic party and they still have a commitment to women's rights and democracy. Oh yeah, I bet! Moderate islamist is like saying moderate nazi or having a hole in your head and saying you're moderately dead. Tunisia begins its descent into islamic darkness. I'm guessing the old dictator Ben-Ali did what he could to hold it off for as long as possible.

That's the Arab Spring for you!!!

Gradually these Islamic factions will take over all the countries to unite in a Caliphate...Thank the Left's policies and Ideologies for this!   Moving troops out of Iraq is a Big Mistake too, we should have finished there, now Iran will be invading and making trouble!
