I was planning on going to Tunisia however my friend was afraid of getting into trouble with religious issues since his passport states that he comes from Israel. (and the percentage of Jews in Tunisia is less than 1%...)

Dion - you should have no problems entering Tunisia with Israel stamps in your passport. Go for it. Other arab countries will give you grief - see the following list: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Israeli_passport#Countries_that_do_not_accept_Israeli_passports

Dion - your friend will have no problems. There is a small Jewish population that live on the island of Djerba and apart from having the oldest Synagogue in North Africa you will see in that area Jews and Arabs living together in peace and harmony. It is worth the visit as Djerba is a very beautiful place. If you want more ideas about tunisia give me an email
