The situation in Egypt is getting worse and worse, it seems as if a civil war is only a few steps away of becoming reality.

At the same time tentions in Tunisia between secular and islamist forces are rising aswell.



It seems as if after the Arab spring, the next hurdle to be overcome in the Arab world is a conflict between secular and islamist forces, not just over the question of rule itslef but over the structures of society.

Well, there are "islamist forces" in those countries, true, but I'm not sure about an exclusive "secularist force".
Most people who define themselves as "secularists" are generally people who wish to enjoy life without being restricted by religious laws, they do not really follow any set of real ideals. They generally run away from such conflicts, or just hide, and conform with the outcome.
There is a force in Egypt and Tunisia that battles the Islamists, and they might be secular in nature, but I believe that they're simply less-islamist than the others.

Arabs are a people that love to kill eachother. I generally accept it as that.
If either the Islamists or the "other forces" win, then the battle will be fought over tribal associations.
