Where is the international reaction? Where the thundering condemnations? Where are the peacemakers, the conciliators? How can it be that the brutal rapes and killings of tens of thousands of Algerians have been so slow to touch the international psyche? Officially, a growing list of countries has denounced the almost nightly killings. The toll since 1992, when the government canceled a general election in which radical Islamists held a commanding lead, is believed to be 80,000.

Government and financial officials on both sides of the Atlantic described the campaign, which is being spearheaded by Michel Camdessus, the IMF's managing director, as potentially risky. Their main worry is that any new funds for Algeria could be at risk if Islamic fundamentalists were to take power. The finance minister of a leading European country, who spoke on condition that he not be identified, said: "There is a great French concern and desire to support the present Algerian government, which is reflected in Camdessus's attitude. And the Algerian government has a pretty good economic adjustment program under way."

The agreement is due to be signed shortly. "This clause is a vital part of the agreement and its presence has up to now been ignored in similar accords with Tunisia and Israel, both countries that were recently criticised for human rights violations," RSF said in a letter to Spanish Foreign Minister Josep Pique, who will sign the Algeria agreement for the EU on 22 April. RSF asked him to use the clause "to pressure the Algerian authorities ... to pledge that press freedom will be respected." This would mean ending all forms of harassment of journalists, conducting and publishing the results of investigations into police brutality against journalists or their disappearance, further amending the criminal code concerning the media and ending the arbitrary handling of applications to launch new publications.

Although considerably fewer terrorist incidents have taken place in Algeria over the last three years, unpredictable attacks still occur in rural villages, on roadsides and public transport, and at night. The most recent terrorist activity has occurred in rural areas in northern Algeria. At the height of terrorist violence in Algeria, many commercial airlines cancelled service to and from Algeria. Since then, a number of carriers have resumed service, including one western airline. Most official foreign travel by U.S. government employees and visitors is via chartered aircraft, although commercial carriers are sometimes used.

SIDALI/GAMMA Ahmed Ben Bella. A file picture. THE Algerian revolution is a landmark in the struggle against colonial rule. Its success 50 years ago in the face of overwhelming odds continues to inspire people fighting against oppression. Commentators have in fact started drawing parallels between the struggle being waged by the Iraqi people today and the war the Algerian people fought against French colonial rule. The Algerian war of independence is one of the bloodiest wars fought on the African continent. More than 1.5 million Algerians died in the struggle. The French lost over 27,000 soldiers, and over 4,000 civilians. The conflict left deep scars on civil society on both sides. Within four years of the start of the guerilla war, the French "Fourth Republic" collapsed. The late French President Francois Mitterrand, then Interior Minister in the French government, had said in response to the rebel offer of talks that "the only possible negotiation is war". General Charles de Gaulle emerged as the new leader of France, vowing to bring the rebel forces to heel. However, within a couple of years he realised the futility of his mission and started negotiations. The protracted talks eventually led to Algeria's independence in 1962.

Demographic, Environmental, and Security Issues Project Letter to the Atlantic Monthly Re: Algerian Massacres by Ronald Bleier rbleier@igc.org Note: The following letter was mailed to the Editor of the Atlantic Monthly on August 31, 1998. Apparently the editors have chosen not to publish it. To the Editor: Roger Kaplan's claim that the Algerian government bears little or no responsibility for the many thousands of killings usually attributed to Islamic extremist groups since the cancellation of the 1992 elections ("The Libel of Moral Equivalence," August 1998), seems another case of Muslim bashing rather than a serious attempt at political analysis. Kaplan's article would have been more persuasive had it included a consideration of increasing popular opposition to 30 years of kleptocracy, mismanagement, corruption, and oppression by the Algerian ruling elite. The reason that the Islamic opposition party was poised to win in the 1992 elections involved as much a rejection of the ruling party as it was an embrace of strict Islamic rule. Nor does Kaplan mention the imprisonment, torture and killings of many of the more moderate opposition leaders who might have participated in power sharing arrangements. The resulting vacuum left the field to many of the more inexperienced and extremist Islamic leaders, some of whom were coopted by agents of the government Security services.

Winter 1996 The Algeria-France Impasse by Cody Constable T he chronology is long and bloody. August 5, 1994: Five French citizens are assassinated in Algeria. Christmas 1994: An Algerian hijacks an Air France plane bound for France; three passengers are killed. From July 25 to October 17, 1995, a wave of terrorism sweeps France; seven bombs kill ten people and wound 130. May 23, 1996: Algerian terrorists announce that they have cut the throats of seven French priest they had kidnapped two months earlier. August 1, 1996: Herve de Charette, the French Foreign Minister, arrives in Algiers; the same evening French Bishop Pierre Claverie is assassinated in Oran. Roots of the Conflict This liberalization of Algerian politics allowed for expression of dormant Islamic opposition to one-party rule. The FIS gained enormous popularity, won a majority of the National Assembly seats in the first round of general elections in December 1991 and stood poised to win the final round. Benjedid declared the election results invalid, banned the FIS, and dissolved the National Assembly. One week later, Benjedid resigned under pressure form the military. A five-member High Council of State assumed control of the government. General Mohammed Boudiaf, who headed the council, declared that new elections would be held in two years. The FIS rejected this unilaterally imposed arrangement. Boudiaf was assassinated soon after by the FIS. During the four-year civil war that followed the assassination, the High Council of State, backed by the military, remained in power. FIS radicals attacked innocent civilians in an effort to convert them to their cause and attacked French citizens in order to protest French support for the regime. the military cracked down on FIS activity. The FIS has since tired of war and confrontations have been less frequent, but terrorist attacks continue. Currently the government is headed by President Liamine Zaroual, a moderate FLN party member. In a December 1995 referendum, 61 percent of the Algerian electorate approved of his leadership. although support for Zeroual has been interpreted as a plea for peace, the military continues to support his government and threatens to crush any future uprising. Meanwhile, the FIS and other banned opposition parties continue to demand the right to participate in parliamentary elections. The current relative calm may only be temporary.

Date: Fri, 7 Mar 97 14:33:59 CST From: scott@rednet.org (Peoples Weekly World) Subject: Algerian crisis worries the western powers **Algerian crisis worries the western powers** Algerian crisis worries the western powers By William Pomeroy, in People's Weekly World, 8 March, 1997 The prolonged crisis in Algeria, and the inability of the army-backed regime of President Liamine Zeroual to "exterminate" an Islamic fundamentalist guerrilla rebellion, as it has pledged to do, is causing increasing concern among western powers for which the North African country has economic and strategic importance. Moves toward intervention from outside, to bring about a negotiated settlement, have begun to develop. At this point, who it would benefit is not certain. Algeria has massive reserves of oil and gas, in which western companies have continued to invest on a large scale and which are being brought into production under contract with the state energy monopoly, Sonatrach, regardless of the warfare in the country. As it happens, the oil and gas are in the distant southern part of Algeria, with vast desert separating it from the heavily-populated northern coastal strip where the armed struggle is taking place. Well-guarded by the Algerian army, the producing areas are relatively secure from attack by the fundamentalists who lack the logistical means to raid across the desert where they'd be vulnerable to air attack. However, while big transnational companies may be flocking to invest in the resources of the south, at a time when oil prices are high, the embattled north has major attraction for globalizing western commercial and industrial interests. The vast proportion of the Algerian population of 30 million that it contains embodies, in transnational eyes, virtually a virgin market, ready for exploitation.

The Algerian Department of Foreign Affairs and the President, Liamaine Zeroual, released a statement today condemning the "invasion of UN peacekeepers" into the violent situation in Algeria. The government insists that the issue is one of national security and that they are taking steps to secure what security they can. They claim that the current regime is "not an oppressive actor," but has taken a "number of goodwill efforts" to solve the current violent situation. The statement made clear that the Algerian government did not see the Islamists as interested in non-violent solutions, but that the majority of Algerians supported the government's actions. The release mentioned that the president won the 1995 elections by 61% of the vote, and "it is clear from these numbers that the Algerian people not only want a secular government but they are also pleased with the actions" of the current regime.

Several hundred demonstrators massed in front of the Paris city hall, overlooking the Seine River on a balmy evening, as Algerian intellectuals and a smattering of leftist French politicians followed each other on a makeshift stage to sound the alarm on behalf of Algeria's traditionally feisty press. A large red-white-and-blue banner proclaimed: "the Algerian press is in danger of dying!" Smaller posters called on the government to free Mohamed Benchicou and Hafnaoui Ghoul, two Algerian journalists currently in jail on questionable charges. "The place of Benchicou and the others is not in prison but in their newspapers," proclaimed Hassan Zerrouky, a spokesman for Algeria's Le Matin newspaper, which Benchicou owns, as the Paris crowd clapped and whistled in agreement. Similar protests were staged in smaller towns in Algeria, just across the Mediterranean Ocean from France, its former colonizer.
