Tunis, special correspondent - This man is neither large nor small. We can not describe it. It has no name. It needs to invent one: Zyed. He hides in a house in the neighborhood Bardo in Tunis, he conducted surveillance from the street by young parents, nerves on edge. "I change location every hour," he said, pushing back tears.Advisor Zine El-Abidine Ben Ali at the Palace of Carthage, he had made contact on his own initiative a few days before the fall of the former president because, he said, he would not be "complicit in the massacres." To meet this Sunday, January 16, follow emissaries through a maze of streets.
Zyed now trying to flee to Tunisia, but his French passport, he exhibited all too briefly, is false. His narrative, often interrupted by the sound of gunfire nearby who are violently startled, depicts the intrigues of a family clan sclerotic and end the reign of dying before the start, December 17, 2010, riots in Tunisia.
"It was an atmosphere detrimental to the palace, he says. In September, there was a serious attachment between the president and his wife, and, from there, the presence of his brother and son Belhassen Imed became increasingly strong. "The former adviser also advance the name of Slim Chiboub Dorsaf married to Ben Ali, the daughter of former president, but dismissed that of another son, prominent, Sakhr Al-Materi, described as "a shark with no teeth ".
In October, the tribe would develop, he said, a scenario" evil "of allowing" the president in office until January 2013 and his resignation was announced on medical grounds, followed by a call to election. "parties" friends "have been exploited to create a controversy by presenting false candidates.
Demonstrations held throughout the RCD, the party of power, would end in a" monster demonstration of one million people in Tunis to demand the application of Leila. "But on Dec. 17, suicide Mohamed Bouazizi, immolated by fire, changes everything." Ben Ali was totally indifferent, he said something like: 'Let him die '.

For our French friends, this is the only solution." To which Ben replied, very cynical: 'AQIM in Tunisia, is the death of tourism, we will commit suicide'.
" To Americans, the same argument should be presented: Kasserine, the city where protests have been most severely repressed, was an "Islamic home." "There was a party atmosphere after the declarations of Michele Alliot-Marie when she offered to help train police Tunisian Zyed continues.
And Eric Raoult called all the time to say that we should not open the breach to Islamists, Abdullah had been nicknamed the 'gateway'. " When contacted, Mr Raoult admits "often called" but, he assures, "as friends or Charfeddine Guellouz Habiba Massabi [RCD member], not the presidency, it's not my level."
