BLOODSHED IN THE DESERT
January 22, 1997
TRANSCRIPT Violence sparked by a conflict between Muslim fundamentalists and the Algerian government, and problems stemming from France's colonial rule, continue to extract a price from this African nation. Charlayne Hunter-Gault speaks with two experts on the conflict and the nation's underlying history. A RealAudio version of this NewsHour segment is available. Browse the NewsHour's coverage of Africa. External Links Facts and links about Algeria. CHARLAYNE HUNTER-GAULT: This car bombing in downtown Algiers on Sunday was the most dramatic evidence of renewed violence in this nation of 28 million people, mostly Arab and native Berber tribesmen. The car bomb killed at least 42 people and injured 100 others. More bombings and killings yesterday and today raised the death toll in the last two weeks to 150. Violence in Algiers has been on the increase since 1992. That year Algeria held its first free election since it gained independence from France 30 years before in a long and brutal struggle. The Fundamentalist Islamic Salvation Front, or FIS, won a stunning victory in the first round of the vote. But the army-backed government canceled the second round and installed its own president. In response, the Islamic militants mounted a terrorist campaign, massacres, decapitations, slaughter in the villages, and bombings in the city. Government-sponsored militias have used their own tough methods, including air raids and torture in their efforts to crush guerrilla groups. Journalists, foreign workers, priests, and nuns have been murdered by Islamists in the bloody conflict.

CRAIG R. WHITNEY, "Militants Massacre Civilians, Algerian Government Says," New York Times, August 30, 1997
PARIS One of the worst massacres in almost five years of war between the military-backed authorities in Algeria and their militant Muslim opponents took the lives of at least 98 inhabitants in hamlets south of Algiers overnight, the Algerian government said Friday. Witnesses and hospital workers told journalists that as many as 300 might have been killed in a night of carnage when armed attackers moved in and slit the throats of men, women and children, leaving the heads of some of the victims on their doorsteps after they left. Algerian journalists who went to the scene, in the village of Rais near Sidi Moussa, an Islamic stronghold that has been the site of many smaller killings in the past, reported seeing scores of burned bodies, some of them decapitated, lying in the streets Friday morning. The authorities blamed the Armed Islamic Group, a militant organization spawned after the army's cancellation of an election in early 1992 that the now-banned Islamic Salvation Front appeared certain to win. The civil war that followed has killed an estimated 60,000 people. What happened in Sidi Moussa overnight may have produced the highest single toll of the conflict, which continues day after day, week after week, with car-bombings, assassinations and mass killings. On Thursday, two bombings, in the port city of Oran and in Algiers, took 18 lives. On Tuesday, 64 people were reported killed in another massacre in the mountain hamlet of Beni Ali, 40 miles south of the capital.

ALGERIAN CRISIS
October 1, 1997
NEWSHOUR TRANSCRIPT Since 1992, Algeria has been crippled by political violence, with over 60,000 deaths resulting from massacres, assassinations and bombings. Although one of the armed rebel groups scheduled a truce to begin today, it is unclear whether violence will in fact end. After a background report by Charles Krause, a journalist and a professor analyze causes and possible solutions to the crisis. A RealAudio version of this segment is available.

CHARLES KRAUSE: Some 60,000 people have died and thousands more have been injured as a result of the political violence that’s consumed Algeria since 1992. Massacres, assassinations, and bombings have become a fact of daily life as Islamic militants battle Algeria’s secular government for control of what was once one of North Africa’s most peaceful and sophisticated countries. The bombings began five years ago shortly after Algeria’s first free election since it gained independence from France in the early 60's. Algeria’s leading Muslim Party, called the Islamic Salvation Party, or FIS, won a stunning victory in the first round of voting. But then Algeria’s military-backed government voided the results and installed its own president to stop the religious party from taking power. Islamic militants have been battling the government ever since. Much of the violence has reportedly been initiated by a shadowy force called the Armed Islamic group, one of several armed guerrilla groups operating in the country today.

Boutros Boutros-Ghali: "I Support the Algerian Government"
Boutros Boutros-Ghali served as secretary general of the United Nations for five years, 1992-96. Born in Egypt in 1922, he was educated at the Universities of Cairo and Paris, and taught at Columbia University. After a career as a law professor (primarily at the University of Cairo) and a journalist (primarily at Al-Ahram al-Iqtisadi ), Dr. Boutros-Ghali served as Egypt's minister of state from 1977-91 and then as deputy prime minister. Dr. Boutros-Ghali has long been identified with the Arab-Israeli peace process. His political career began in November 1977 when he was appointed minister of state without portfolio just three weeks before Anwar as-Sadat made his dramatic visit to Jerusalem. And when, on the eve of that trip, the foreign minister Isma'il Fahmi resigned, Boutros-Ghali accompanied Anwar as-Sadat as acting foreign minister. He participated in the Camp David talks and the other negotiations that led to the 1979 Egyptian-Israeli peace treaty. Daniel Pipes interviewed him in New York on May 30, 1997. THE PEACE PROCESS Middle East Quarterly : In 1975 you wrote an important article entitled "Palestine in the Year 2000" in which you examined the possibility of peace with Israel and proposed that the "State of the Hebrews" should become the Hong Kong of the Middle East: a demilitarized state subordinate to the wishes of its neighbors.

An emergency meeting for the Algerian government
Algeria, Politics, 11/12/2001 Algerian prime minister Ali Bin Fles has summoned his government for an emergency meeting on Sunday after the floods invading the country resulted in killing 300 persons and displacing almost 5500 families.
The Algerian government is due to draw an emergency plan to mobilize the central government and the local government in an attempt to ensure shelter, food and relief items for the victims of the floods and maintaining the damaged roads and utilities On the other hand, the Algerian minister of the Interior Nour eddine Yazid Zarhouni urged the international community to provide urgent aids, noting that his country is facing a national catastrophe following the heavy rainfall and the storms blew on the country last Friday and Saturday.
Worthy mentioning that rains invaded the roads, uprooted trees and downed electricity cables as well as resulted in destroying several houses and displacing many Algerians. Previous Stories:

By North Africa correspondent David Bamford Ben Bradshaw, a UK Foreign Office Minister, says Britain does not want to be regarded as a haven for terrorists, but that it cannot act against suspects living in the UK without having firm evidence. Mr Bradshaw was speaking in Morocco, a day after the Algerian Government repeated to him its call for the UK authorities to expel Algerian Islamist militants implicated in violence against civilians in Algeria and France. Mr Bradshaw said that even before the 11 September attacks on New York and Washington, the UK Government took firm measures against terrorism by proscribing a number of organisations, including two Islamist groups using violence against civilians in Algeria, the GIA and the GSPC. Mr Bradshaw said the authorities would take legal action based on the anti-terrorism law whenever there was evidence that would stand up in court.

    Paul Schemm Special to the Middle East Times
    Algerian Interior Minister Mustafa Benmansour announced the results of the Algerian elections on 6 June, describing them as a "great achievement and a huge victory offered to the nation and rising generations." He went on to describe the 5 June contests as part of a "series of major achievements made for the embodiment and consecration of democracy and the state of law within the framework of the efforts for national recovery initiated" by President Liamine Zeroual. The elections confirmed the regime's hold on power as the three-month-old government party, the Democratic National Rally (RND) won 155 seats in the 380-seat parliament. While not a majority, it could expect support from the former ruling National Liberation Front (FLN), which garnered 64 seats and shares the same ideology as the RND. Assuming the two parties work together, this would give the government a solid majority of 57 percent of the seats. Two legal Islamist parties obtained 27 percent of the seats between them. Mahfoud Nahnah's Movement of Society for Peace (MSP), formerly known as Hamas, was the second highest vote-getter with 69 seats, while Abdellah Dajaballah's Al Nahda party received 34 seats.

    BY SÉBASTIEN DESAUTELS
    AND MICHEL PRAIRIE

    MONTREALAfter a campaign of weekly vigils and other protests, hundreds of refugees from Algeria won a victory October 30, when the Canadian government announced that it would lift the immediate threat of deportation that it has held over them since April. Among the participating organizations at the rally was the Non-Status Refugees Action Committee (CASS), which has played a prominent role in the ongoing protests. While welcoming the decision, which is part of an agreement between the government in Ottawa and the Quebec provincial government in Quebec City, CASS spokes-people have also pointed out its limitations. The fight would not end with this partial success, marchers on November 9 told the Militant. "We will continue our struggle to get justice for all the Algerians who don’t have legal status," said Mohamed Cherfi. The refugees and their supporters launched the campaign following the decision seven months earlier by Denis Coderre, Canada’s Minister of Immigration and Citizenship, to end an April 1997 moratorium on the deportation of those Algerians not recognized by the government as refugees. The moratorium, which was similar to ones applying to immigrants from Afghanistan, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, and Rwanda, had protected the Algerian citizens from summary eviction from the country. The immigrants originally sought asylum in Canada from the civil war that has ravaged their country since the beginning of the 1990s. The Canadian government refused the majority of their applications for refugee status. At the same time it established the moratorium on the deportations of those who had exhausted all appeals procedures.

    In 1986 the French Government co-operated with the Algerian Government by expelling 13 members of the MDA, and in 1986-88 it suppressed three MDA newspapers that were being published in France.
    In 1987 the Algerian Government agreed to release the assets of former French settlers, which had been "frozen" since independence, and to allow former settlers to sell their land to the Algerian State; in return, financial assistance was provided by France.
    Alleged Islamist militants residing in France continued to be prosecuted, and in August 1994, following the killing of five French embassy employees in Algiers, 26 suspected Algerian extremists were interned in northern France;
    20 of them were expelled to Burkina Faso. In September the French embassy in Algiers confirmed that entry visas would be issued to Algerians only in exceptional cases.
    By November, when the number of French nationals killed by Islamist militants in Algeria had reached 21, the French Government was urging its citizens to evacuate Algeria. An Air France aircraft was hijacked in Algiers in December by members of the GIA, resulting in the deaths of three passengers and, later, in the killing of the hijackers by French security forces when the aircraft landed in Marseilles, France. In retaliation, the GIA "declared war" on France.
    Morocco imposed entry visas on Algerian nationals in August 1994, following the murder of two Spanish tourists in a Moroccan hotel, allegedly by Algerian Islamist extremists. Algeria reciprocated by temporarily closing the border between the two countries and imposing entry visas on Moroccan nationals.

    Islamic terrorists slaughter Algerian villagers
    Government vows fierce reprisal
    In this story: August 29, 1997
    Web posted at: 3:56 p.m. EDT (1956 GMT) ALGIERS, Algeria (CNN) Scores and perhaps hundreds of Algerian villagers were slaughtered overnight by attackers believed to be Islamic fundamentalist terrorists. The attacks, in which men, women and children had their throats slit and were sometimes decapitated and burned, is the worst in five years of ongoing violence in Algeria. The government, which seldom comments on such attacks and often minimizes the death toll, said 98 were killed and 120 were wounded. But hospital workers and witnesses said at least 200 people, and perhaps as many as 400, had died. "The victims, in the majority, are women and children, including tiny babies," the government said in a rare statement. "Those killed were mostly slain by knives, some by bullets and others burnt in fires in their homes. "In the face of this outbreak of attacks against isolated populations, measures have just been decided to reinforce the protection of inhabited sites in the countryside," the government said its statement, which was read on state radio.
