Islamists Launch Online Attacks Against 2 Tunisian Olympians

AP reported yesterday that in Tunisia, Islamic fundamentalists are using social media in a campaign against two Tunisian Olympic athletes. Islamists on social media networks are calling on the Tunisian government to strip steeplechase silver medalist Habiba Ghribi of her Tunisian citizenship because her running outfit was too revealing.  Ghribi is first Tunisian woman to win an Olympic medal.   Separately, the Islamist group Ansar al Chariaa is conducting a Facebook campaign against swimmer Oussama Mellouli because he drank juice before racing during Ramadan. Mellouli won a gold and a bronze medal.
