Ayoub Massoudi, a former top media advisor to Tunisian President Moncef Marzouki, faces military trial over his televised declarations regarding the extradition of former Libyan Prime Minister Baghdadi Mahmoudi from Tunisia to his country.
PM Hamadi Jebali’s decistion to extradite Mahmoudi without informing the President led to a political crisis in Tunisia. Marzouki who had opposed sending Mahmoudi home, had not been told that the extradition would occur on June, 24, the same day he travelled to the South in company of Rachid Ammar, Chief of Staff of the Tunisian Armed Forces, and Abdelkrim Zbidi, Minister of Defence.
During an interview with the privately-owned Attounissia TV network [dated July, 15], Massoudi said that Ammar and Zbidi did not notify President Marzouki about Mahmoudi’s extradition even though they were on board of the same helicopter touring the Tunisian South on June, 24.
“These two persons, were aware of the extradition, its time, and all of its circumstances, but did not notify the President all that day long, though they accompanied him in all his stops. They did not utter a word, and did not inform the President who is the Commander-in-Chief”, said Massoudi before depicting the extradition process as “treason against the Sate”.
Following a complaint lodged against him by General Rachid Ammar, Massoudi is now banned from leaving the country. On August, 16 authorities at the Tunis Carthage International Airport prevented him from flying to Paris.
He faces charges of “denigration of the army”, and “defamation against a public official”. On August, 17 the Tunis based Primary Military Court delayed the his trial to August, 22.
Ayoub Massoudi resigned on June, 28 in protest at “exclusion” from the decision-making process at the Presidential Cabinet. He told Attounissia TV that members at the Presidential Cabinet, affiliated with Ennhadha, managed to “isolate” the President from the political scene in Tunisia and from some of his advisors.
Another whistle blower cops it: that’s a democracy a la tunisienne.
not long ago the tunisian army was the despots arms extention.
the army did the dirty work and thuggery to mantain the despots stronghold on power from
bourguiba,zibla…… to now.
we thought they rehabilitated themselves by
the stand they took against zibla: obviously not.
what’s wrong with transparency,what so
significant and secret that has to be hidden fromthe tunisian public.
if this act was seen as a spoil of the army
repution than tough luck to them and so what.
the army has neither the intellect nor the capacity to be a law onto themselves.
this young man is a civilian and we need lots of whistle blowers like him to expose the
conniving going on in tunisia.
power is gone to his head ben ammar and he must remember that he is only a public servant
like massoudi.
we had enough of back room deals with past
despots .
the youths of tunisia took the stand against the tyrants not the army.
the army took an opportunistic stand and nothing else and weren’t on the side of public at the start.
Pourquoi pas les autres?
La faute de Monsieur Ayoub Massoudi est qu’il est partie de l’hypothèse non justifiable suivante: “Notre général Rachid Ammar et son collègue Abdelkrim Zbidi étaient évidemment au courant de l’extradition de M. Mahmoudi”
et ainsi Monsieur Massoudi conclut d’une façon très logique: “Nos militaires ont ainsi tout camouflée”.
Monsieur Massoudi utilise un postulat qui est un principe non démontré mais sans doute légitime, car semblant intuitivement non contestable. Ce modèle de raisonnement est admissible dans les théories mathématiques mais inadmissible en politique. Mr. Massoudi aurait pu dire: “Si nos militaires étaient au courant de l’extradition, ça serait du camouflage de leur part.” Il faut que toute accusation que l’on porte soit authentifiée.
Je vous propose dans la suite d’aborder le raisonnement par analogie afin de convaincre le lecteur qu’il y a quelque chose qui cloche dans cette histoire. Ce raisonnement diffère de la proportion purement mathématique en ce qu’il ne pose pas l’égalité de deux relations mais aboutit à une similitude de rapports. Pour cela, considérons les déclarations de Monsieur Sofiene Ben Farhat sur Shems Fm:
http://www.shemsfm.net/fr/video/shems-people/sofiene-ben-farhat-s-explique-sur-l-affaire-de-rachid-ammar-1641/sofiene-ben-farhat-s-explique-sur-l-affaire-de-rachid-ammar-23472?idmenu=4
Les déclarations de Monsieur Ben Farhat sur Shems Fm sont des accusations et une agression directe de notre général Rachid Ammar! Elles sont même plus graves que celles faites par Monsieur Ayoub Massoudi! Alors on se demande (raisonnement par analogie), pourquoi est-ce qu’il n’y a pas eu dans le cas de Monsieur Sofiene Ben Farhat des poursuites juridiques? Monsieur Sofiene Ben Farhat a été même invité par notre premier Ministre Monsieur Hamadi Jebali à boire un café (écoutez s.v.p. la vidéo sur le lien ci-dessus), ce qui est même incompréhensible. Etait-ce un geste de reconnaissance? Pourquoi Monsieur Massoudi est inculpé et pas les autres qui agissent apparemment au nom et pour le compte d’Ennahdha. Ce paradoxe est la raison pour laquelle la Tunisie est de nouveau un terrain fertile pour une nouvelle révolution mais cette fois-ci contre Ennahdha!
Le raisonnement par analogie (pour ceux que ça intéresse): En algèbre l’égalité a/b=c/d permet d’affirmer par symétrie que c/d=a/b, et d’opérer sur ces termes des transformations mathématiques qui nous mènent à l’équation ad-cb=0. Dans le raisonnement par analogie on établit que “a” est à “b” comme “c” est à “d”. Il s’agit d’une comparaison (assimilation) de deux relations. Entre le couple a-b et le couple c-d nous ne cherchons plus à démontrer une égalité symétrique, mais nous cherchons plutôt une assimilation ayant pour but d’éclairer une relation à partir d’une autre! Il est vraiment temps d’introduire l’enseignement de la logique dans notre enseignement secondaire!

the trahision by r ammar is clear as daylight
yet the culpabilty is lumped on ayoud massoudi.
Ayoud is not anyone:he is the advisor to the
president who carried his duties admirably
by this whistle blowing act.
the general r a action should be seen as a betrayel to the president and consequently the nation.
R ammar should be put to pasture or more
harshly turfed out for betraying the president and the nation.
more troubling is these infected batch holding power in tunisia.
all of them originate from the same turf monastir sousse: all corrupted to the bone
starting by bourguiba,zibla,ghannouchi ex pm
the third president of transition period and
now the current prime minister and president.
What they have in common is:corruption,ineptitude,authoritans,
and imaginable uselessness .
they are all sahelites and not up to it by
any measure.
it is time to brake the ice and get people from any other area of the country.
by putting the rot heads from the same area
we are ending with the same outcome.
I personnally had enough of sousse area crups.
we have to learn the basic that the people have
a virus in their water to make them corrupt.
A change is for the good not to get a rat
with a different name bred in the same kennel.
there must some wonderful sahelites but we seem to get their worst at the helm.
time to change and it’s now or never or the pain will be prolonged
[…] – Under Ennahdha pressure, in an incident which, among other things, revealed, the powerlessness of Tunisian president Moncef Marzouki to protect Khadaffi’s foreign minister, Baghdadi Al Mahmoudi who had sought political asylum in Tunisia. In a sop to the U.S. and NATO, Ennahdha turned Al Mahmoudi over to the Libya’s National Transitional Council. One of Marzouki’s closest advisors, Ayoub Massoudi, resigned over the handover, criticizing the Ennahdha government as a `theocratic dictatorship.’ As a result, Massoudi was indicted as a faces a military trial.
