From not wanting not to offend, shock, exaggerate, assault and disturb, the question of banning photographs in front of mosques arises in a highly tourist country like Morocco. From there to prevent tourists mild or regular outfits (it depends for whom) to discover the country, there’s not a lot to grow.

Such a decision could have serious consequences for the opening image of Morocco in the world but also the entire region.

Meanwhile, and as that to calm the situation, Darline Devos, President of the National Committee “Miss Belgium”, apologized for the embarrassment caused, “I apologize. […] Our intention was not to provoke. These are candid shots she said.

In Tunisia, the mosques are closed to visiting tourists ,while, god houses in Islam are supposed to remain open. In Istanbul, over 3000 mosques are open 24/24.

Between the Salafis who want to destroy the Pyramids in Egypt, and, Morocco ultra conservatives who want to ban the pictures, it is certain that tourism has lived this “Arab revolution” many disturbances.
