Tunisia attack prompts travel warning
Summery:
Since the 2011 uprising, which saw president Zine al-Abidine Ben Ali ousted, there have been sporadic
protests and militant attacks. Some people have been found with weapons and explosives in the
Riadh Palm Hotel in the resort town of Sousse, leading the Foreign Office to advise travelers to be cautious
of massive tourist areas because of the possibility of strikes and protests which can be violent. Some southern
Tunisian areas are even prohibited from entering because of the terrorist attacks and violent protests.

My thoughts:
I think that its very sad that The Foreign Office must go so far as to close down some of Tunisia's biggest tourist spots. This will probably cause Tunisia's economy to fall drastically. I believe that if they set up a patrol guard and checked bags for weapons and explosives, then there would be a lot less violent revolts and terrorist attacks. It is a big problem in Tunisia that needs to be stopped.

Tying into culture:
This ties into Tunisia's culture because Tunisian people usually protest by killing or
harming people and it has become very common. The economy is also in danger of falling
because of the lack of tourists, worsening Tunisia's environment. In the Tunisian culture, terrorist attacks
are a common form of revolt and are stimulated by uprisings and unwanted acts.
