Michael Totten does it again. He finds and interviews a character history would have forgotten -- who tripped the wire on several revolutions.

That was bloody fascinating.

I never knew of her before this. I knew Tunisia was first, but not what sparked it all.

Thanks for posting. Good read./

Cool.

Very interesting. I must admit I knew nothing of the person who had reported Mohamed Bouazizi to the cops, in fact, I also thought she was a cop herself. I hadn't honestly given any thought to her side of the story; I didn't realise how important it was.
So this was very enlightening, thanks for posting it.
