But what if America's extreme right and Zionists had not hijacked 9/11 and the U.S. government had treated 9/11 as a terror attack, as a tragedy, as a criminal act of violence which needed to be properly investigated?
He might still be living in the lap of luxury, but make no mistake Tunisia's former President Zine al-Abidine Ben Ali and his family are prisoners.
