drol 11,946 Posted July 25, 2019 North Africa in general has lot to offer in matter of old politicians. Tunisia: *Rachid Sfar (1933), former PM. *Zine El Abidine Ben Ali (1936), president and PM, now exiled, but in good health despite rumours. If for "good health" you mean "terminal prostate cancer" *Hédi Baccouche (1930), former PM who is now a writer. *Hamed Karoui (1927), rumoured to be dead last year, he actually lost his brother a month later circa. His nephew will run for president. *Fouad Mebazaa (1933), President before Essebsi, he condoled his death today. *Habib Ben Yahia (1938) Foreign Minister, now jailed for power abuse. *Abdelbaki Hermassi (1937) Foreign Minister *Ahmed Ben Salah (1926): he was born to bring socialism and revolution in Tunisia, but failed. Now president of his own party. Algeria: *Abdelaziz Bouteflika (1937), Ali Bou. Well, you all know the Living Dead and all hope for a state funeral to be held really soon. *Liamine Zeroual (1941), young, but has great health problems and was reported dead different times. *Abdelhamid Brahimi (1936), PM, who is now a writer. *Sid Ahmed Ghozali (1937) Famous for his papillon, was bound to be a presidential candidate last year. *Belaid Abdessalam (1928): a PM who has fought Islamists like no one. *Ali Haroun (1927): member of the High Council of State. Morocco: *Ahmed Laraki (1931), from Laraki family, one-time PM and multiple times Foreign Minister. *Ahmed Osman (1930), PM, brother in law of King Hassan II. *Abderrahmane Youssoufi (1924), the real Moroccan star. Goes in and out of hospital for pneumonia, still made it to 95. Human rights activist. *Abdelouahed Belkeziz (1939), Foreign Minister. *Mohamed Benaissa (1937), quite a celebrity in the Country. Libya: *Mustafa Ben Halim (1921): Last PM of the KIngdom of Lybia and one of those who plotted against Gheddafi. Who tried to have him killed many times, of course. *Abdul Ati al-Obeidi (1939), Foreign Minister, arrested and released in 2011. Egypt: *Hosni Mubarak (1928), the ethernal fucker *Mohamed Hussein Tantawi (1935), deposed Mubarak. *Kamal Ganzouri (1933), former PM. *Hazem El Beblawi (1936) ousted Morsi. *Ahmad Fathi Sorour (1932), Mubarak associate, who was ousted in 2011 as well. *Amr Moussa (1936) Foreign Minister 4 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
