Went a couple of years ago - Tunis was interesting with a good souk. It all felt a bit iffy then though!

But who wouldn't want the fantastic bonding experience of being trapped in a beseiged hotel with a bunch of expats and journalists? Clustered on the foors, sharing bottles of whisky as bricks shatter the windows and the occasional bomb goes off in the distance, against the background of perpetual gunshots?

Maybe, and I would use this situation to it's full advantage... chat up the hotel staff.

you know there was some kind of march last friday here in Sana'a but nothing major, mostly the people don't seem to give a shit. (thanks to Khat I'd imagine)
It seems here that the tribes outside hate the government mostly but hate each other also, so can't get organised to depose them.
