TUNIS, March 18 (Reuters) - Tunisia will not take part in any international military intervention in its neighbour Libya, a government spokesman said on Friday.
U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said during a visit to Tunis on Thursday that talks were underway about Arab countries playing a direct role in a military operation against Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi to protect civilians.

"It is out of the question," government spokesman Taieb Bakouch told Reuters when asked if Tunisia would be involved.

"We will not take part in any military intervention against Libya, we will not take part in any way," he said.

I can imagine why.

There effort for the refugees - also of the UNHCR - is already great.

And more-over the Tunesians - who needs our support on every space of economy without arms - are great people and have there internal 'going' in developping to a state of rights for all people.

Democracy isn't an easy way of life. Not meant for lazy boys and girls who forgetting what matters................


commentary±-................

Democracy asked your whole live to orientate, or - even when the Spirit seems to be away - give full power by working together as simple woman and man.

Amd people of Tunesia , Egypt, Libya and others learned me that greatest lesson renewed!

Democracy isn´t for people who feares, but for people who overcomes that fear,

The Spirit of that and all is with you!

1. Fair enough in their case for sure

They share a land border with the loyalist parts of Libya; even assuming they weren't dealing with the results of their domestic situation they'd be swinging a little out of their weight class there.

2. Isn't it fair enough anyway?

Maybe they don't want to engage in military intervention at all?

3. Tunisians have a lot on their plate right now . . .

...after overthrowing Ben Ali's dictatorship.

...asking them to participate in a military effort against a neighbor right now is too much.
