Summary

Support for FEMEN is not unanimous as they continue to provoke with their protests, notably in Tunisia where three European activists were imprisoned for their involvement and support of Amina Sboui, the first Tunisian FEMEN. The movement's controversial tactics and ideologies, intended to protect women's rights, have sparked debates and varying reactions globally, and particularly in the Arab world.
