| 'Enough tears for Tunisia' |
| 2014-02-11 |
| [MAGHAREBIA] One year after the liquidation of opposition leader Chokri Belaid, Tunisians on Saturday (February 8th) came out to mark the anniversary of the event, remember his message, and repudiate terrorism and violence. "Enough tears and terrorism, let's look to the future," Belaid's widow Basma Khalfaoui, said during the demonstration. "Chokri Belaid was killed simply because he had a different political thinking," she said. Prior to Belaid's liquidation on February 6th, 2013, the leftist leader was preparing to organise a national conference to combat violence and warned on more than one occasion of the terrorist threat after the revolution. |
