WASHINGTON, Jan. 18, 2011 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- The Islam and World Affairs Program, Washington Semester, at American University cordially invites you to panel discussion on the situation in Tunisia.  The Tunisians uprising that began last month has already forced the country's president out of office and the formation of an interim government designed to oversee a new election. Will this expression of people power yield the first democracy in the Arab world? Other Arabs are showing high level of interest. What do these dynamics mean for U.S. relations with the Muslim world? What should the Obama administration do?
