It's all very confusing but it's clear that the Tunisian drama has reached its endgame. Ben Ali has dissolved Parliament, called for new elections and reportedly left the country, with Prime Minister Mohammed Ghannouchi serving as interim President. This situation is unlikely to endure long, but whst replaces it is far from clear. I'll have more commentary when I'm a bit clearer on what's going to happen next.
I think we've seen the first successful revolution from the streets since the Iranian Revolution of 1979, but what will come next is the question.
