Amy Goodman of Democracy Now discusses the 'Algerian chapter' of "The Great War for Civilisation" with Robert Fisk, the author, where many issues are debated: the civil unrest in France, its colonial past in Algeria, the screening by the Pentagon of The Battle of Algiers and the ongoing war in Iraq. Good stuff.

The pieds-noirs, those hateful racists, have no rights whatsoever in our country.  They killed, raped, enslaved, tortured.....and above all they want damages!!!

@FennecPhillies General Aussaresse is a great hero, a great patriot - not in any way a bad person. He fought fire with fire and WON the Battle of Algiers.

It's no good pretending that brutal terrorists that murder civilians, put bombs on buses and trains, hi-jack airplanes and crash the planes in to office buildings are nice, honorable men. These terrorists must be hunted down and taken out and General Aussaresse did just that.

Look at Algeria today as these scum terrorists are still there.

The Revolution is by no means over brothers and sisters. It's time to unseat and destroy those Harkis in Algiers and Rabat!

[FennecPhillies]

The General Aussaresse is a member of OAS, he was a good teacher for the Americans in fort bragg at war in Vietnam, they used him in operation Phoenix and teached the same technics of battle of Algiers

means all aspects of intellegence using torture to get informations . It was a copy of battle of Algiers

and the Americans killed 20,000 of civiliance in Vietnam.

History repeat itself.

[FennecPhillies]

Worst they use also a good teachers like the French General Paul Ausaresse who said that

he assassinated the FLN chef of Algiers Larbi ben M'hidi and the Lawyer Ali Boumendjel,

under the commendement of the Colonel Marcel Bigeard. And the list is so long with Algerians who

get executed.

[FennecPhillies]

Every thing started with Indochina War, the French para troupers get defeated but they learned well there lesson.

And they used the same technics in Algiers it was like a revange to won that war that they losted in battle of Dien Bien Phu.

This is not the first time where the Pantagone use the Battle of Algiers movie to teach there army

to use torture to have informations to any body that is suspect and elimanated him after that.

Norway is an interesting nation and culture. Probably the most civilized people on this world in my opinion.

I just found out that Norway pays a billion dollars to Brazil annually in aid to stop deforestation of the Amazon rain forest.

if that forest disappears we are in deep shit.

what's the United States, the biggest consumers and polluters of the earth, doing to stop deforestation and carbon emissions???

[cangooooods]

Oh... gosh.. The American dubbing... How awful and lol-some at the same time.
