Tunisia in torment and turmoil with street protests

Here's another greedy president on his way out. President Zine al-Abidine Ben Ali of Tunisia may think he's been God's gift to his people but the people want a refund. He's probably best off trying to find digs in some Saudi prince's harem. Otherwise he could end up like that rotten little man Ceaucescu in Romania. Or worse still like Mussolini. Something for that philandering Berlusconi to think about too!

These characters must think everyone else is barking mad, or supinely foolish. Anyway, the world knows now that he is a crook, with a crooked wife in tow. It's time he went.
