The Tunisian army is constantly engaged in battles with European mercenaries. During this gun battle a number of these mercenaries were slain. German, Swedish and French mercenaries were arrested. Upon their arrest weapons and ammunition were found. It seems that European mercenaries were deployed to Tunisia for the uprising to create chaos in the country. The images speak for themselves.

1. Merc's?

Where's the proof?

Where's the body armor, the weapons, com gear?

4. They were showing Brenneke (German) Shotshell slugs.

Apparently, one of the suspects was carrying. I have some just like them. Nasty round and easily accurate within 100 meters.
They come in boxes of 5, which they also show. The box I'm looking at now has a drop chart from 25 to 100 yards and says they are dangerous to 2000 yards.
I wouldn't want to get hit with one.

6. 5 shot gun shells?

That's a little lite to say the least.

Folks do visit Tunisia to bird hunt. More like bird massacre. I don't know about any large game.

Could be they were just trying to get the hell out of Dodge. Wound up in the wrong neighborhood.

Just have to wait and see.

7. 5 rounds of slugs ber box is pretty standard packaging.

The black ones are 12 Ga. 3 inch 1.5oz and hot. Nothing I would want to shoot all day but good for street fighting, busting doors and stopping POVs.

8. 12 ga slugs.

Not my preference.

I don't know any one who uses slugs other than hunters.

Special purpose/entry 12 ga round being the exception.

They are limited issue.

2. ITS ASTONISHING

the number of dictators we support and prop up in the middle east and Northern Africa. We have Egypt, Tunisia, Morocco, Saudi Arabia, Jordan, Baharain, UAE, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar and Iraq. I think its time to leave these countries alone and let the necessary revolutions to displace the monarchy and dictators ruling the people.

And yes, those guys look European to me

[westerebus]

9. But are they merc's?

Just because they are european doesn't qualify them as mercenaries.

3. sometimes when video is that bad, I wonder if I'm

purposely being mislead.

5. Tough to tell

However, there are some shells being passed around. My arabic(?) is nonexistent, so having translations might help.
