Between 700 and 1,000 people, according to police figures and organizers, marched in Marseille, shouting " Ben Ali murderer " in solidarity with the movement in protest against the regime in Tunisia.
Starting off from the Canebiere, the crowd calmly reached the Consulate General of Tunisia late afternoon, under the protection of the riot police, chanting "Ben Ali, get lost", "Ben Ali murderer, Sarkozy accomplice" and waving placards denouncing" 60 dead in four days" and photos of the presumed victims covered with blood.
"We are surprised to see Tunisians demonstrating, they are usually the ones who are terrified. There they are out, they are no longer afraid, something has changed, " said Yahia Bounouar, Algerian opposer and spokesman of the "Solidarity Maghreb" group.

I support the protests in Tunisia 100%. I have been trying to get in contact with Tunisian activists and unionists over facebook and youtube. There is a youtube channel called Freedom4Tunisa which has videos of the riots.
