“Do you remember Mohamed Bouazizi? It's amazing his name isn't mentioned more often. All the horror from Islamic State in Syria and Iraq, murderous rampages in Europe, the millions of refugees, state collapse in Libya, Egypt's political fragility, Turkey shooting down a Russian fighter jet, great power rivalry in the Middle East, yet Mohamed Bouazizi, this humble 26-year-old market vendor from Tunisia, is barely remembered – at least in the West.
It all unravelled after he set himself on fire.
Bouazizi cannot be blamed for how events transpired, but what happened to him should stand as a warning. He was humiliated by corruption, bullying local officials who confiscated his wares, slapped him and stopped him from running a fair business to provide for his family.”
