From Facebook, Brotherhood In Islam:
One commenter said “My friends were in the hotel next to it and they said the next day a good 200 Tunisians were out on the street as a pack singing 'Why take the British, take us' which is so rare to see. Apparently they love the British out there and I would not hesitate to go there. Beautiful people who are taking the blame for the minority.”
This will have terrible consequences for their tourism industry, on which they rely so much.
The so-called 'Dark Web' is part of the encrypted 'Deep Web' and lies beneath the 'Surface Web'. Sounds all very mysterious and dark, ooooohhhh - hide behind the sofa!!
Encryption software and associated tools can be used to hide identities and offset locations. Some might be surprised to know that a large part of internet information is 'buried' in the Deep Web. Software engineers are familiar with this stuff and this article by PC Advisor might be of interest:

Basically there is nothing dark or mysterious about this stuff, anyone in the know can go 'underground'.
Remember I said "what with"? This is what we do have:
Here's how many planes the Royal Air Force has available to fight Isil - Telegraph
Not a lot.
Even to me, a layman, it seems these threats of plane and UAV strikes are purely cosmetic and to give a sense to the public that we're taking action.
Most likely thing it will do is add to the people leaving the west to join and increase the fanatics locally as the strikes inevitably start causing civilian casualties (collateral damage) while failing to actually cause any real harm to the IS other than slowing them down a bit.
We're not dealing with a large scale army with organised troop movements, base camps and technical installations that can be destroyed.

Sousse beach attack: Coroner condemns Tunisia police response - Sousse beach attack: Coroner condemns Tunisia police response - BBC News
"The police response to a terror attack at a Tunisian beach resort in which 30 Britons died was "at best shambolic and at worst cowardly", a coroner has concluded."
Sounds about right....
And the Tunisian authorities are now saying it is now 100% safe.How is that - does that mean they have security forces to protect tourists - well we now see that having police and security services at the scene means nothing.
And how can anywhere be 100% safe - what a stupid claim - makes it sound meaningless.
I did feel sorry for Tunisia that the travel ban was so prolongued but now the facts are out I can see why.
Cheers,

It's on the radio now. The armed police were hiding, running away and one hiding his uniform.
'Cowardly' Tunisian police condemned by UK inquest into 2015 Sousse attacks
But he described one police officer as having had "fainted through terror and panic" and another as having taken off his shirt to hide the fact he was an officer.
He added that with the exception of two marine guards, no police entered the hotel grounds until the gunman had killed all 38 tourists.
"They had everything they required to confront the gunman and could have been at the scene within minutes," he said, adding: "The delay was deliberate and unjustifiable."
