French President Emmanuel Macron made unfortunate and totally unacceptable and reprehensible remarks regarding the existence of the Algerian state before French colonization in 1830.
It goes without saying that the French archives, looted by France the day after this criminal invasion, are full of treaties concluded by the leaders of the Algerian state for many centuries.
Here is one proof, among many others, highlighting a German coin dated 1751, that is to say half of the 16th century, and which commemorates a peace treaty concluded that year with Algeria . Our country is mentioned by name, and its name is eternally engraved in bronze, gold, or silver.
What seems to have justified Macron’s hateful, misleading and provocative remarks is linked to the very nature of French colonialism as deployed in Algeria. In his last interview granted to a French magazine, he recognizes that this colonialism, different from all the others, was a colonialism of population.
To understand by this, that by discovering the beauty and the riches of this country, as well as the high level of education of its indigenous populations, France sought to eliminate the latter in order to replace them completely and definitively.
Hence the massacres of entire villages, the enfumades of the Dahra and other crimes against humanity, widely documented in the book entitled “History of a perjury” by Michel Habart, dated 1961, censored at the time of its publication.
France, which plundered the immense wealth of Algiers at the time of the capture of the Regency of Algiers, wanted to accomplish in our country the same “civilizing work” as that of the European invaders, naturalized Americans since, with regard to the Indians. from America.
It is from this that comes this sempiternal resentment of the “lost paradise”, felt by the French supporters of “French Algeria”, many of whom ostensibly refuse to recognize their colonial crimes, let alone deign to apologize for them.
Macron’s parade to avoid it was to pretend that an apology would mean a break.
Ironically, one wonders how official France went about arranging the blow of its few tens or hundreds of Jews deported under the Vichy regime….
