I'm very excited to announce that the journey we started over a
year ago in Tunisia and continued this May in Algeria has now added the
final missing part -- HuffPost Morocco -- to create the full ensemble of
The Huffington Post Maghreb! At HuffPost Morocco we'll be telling the
stories that matter most and -- just as important -- helping people
throughout Morocco tell their stories themselves, in words, in pictures
and in video. We'll be covering topics including corruption, political
tensions between Morocco and Algeria, social and religious questions
like abortion and public health issues. HuffPost Morocco will also be a
place to discuss and celebrate Morocco's unique traditions and culture
-- everything from sports and entertainment to technology and parenting.Soccer Fan Support for the Islamic State: Protest or a New Generation of Jihadists?
