What's on CNN Islamic terrorists slaughter Algerian villagers Government vows fierce reprisal In this story: Death toll ranges from 98 to 400 Attacks occurred in Triangle of Death Young women kidnapped for 'temporary marriage' Government vows to eradicate terrorists 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.

The report issued today was the work of "a panel of eminent persons" appointed by U.N. Secretary General Kofi Annan. The panel, which visited Algeria from July 22 to August 4, did not conduct a formal probe, but merely "gathered information on the situation in Algeria." "The diplomats' visit is no substitute for a formal on-site investigation by U.N. human rights experts," said Hanny Megally, executive director of the organization's Middle East and North Africa Division. "We call on the Algerian government to take the next step to open up the country to international human rights investigators."

He negotiated a deal with the Islamic Salvation Army (AIS), the military wing of the outlawed Islamic Salvation Front (FIS), offering a government amnesty of jailed AIS fighters in return for an AIS cease-fire. Bouteflika pledged that militants active in networks supporting armed groups would be freed but not "authors of blood crimes, rapes and terrorism." On June 5, the AIS announced it was calling a halt to its fight against the Algerian government. As part of the amnesty deal, the FIS has also pledged to help the government combat the more radical Islamic extremist factions, in particular the Armed Islamic Group (GIA), responsible for most of the grisly massacres against Algerian civilians. And, several days following the cease-fire announcement, the AIS stormed a GIA base in Algeria's eastern province of Jijel and captured its field commander and several other armed militants.

The committee's report comes as the Algerian government continues to resist independent scrutiny of this 'widespread human rights crisis.' The authorities have stoutly refused to accede to the request of the U.N. High Commissioner for Human Rights, Mary Robinson, that they cooperate with expert U.N. bodies such as the Working Group on Enforced or Involuntary Disappearances and the Special Rapporteur on Extrajudicial, Summary or Arbitrary Executions. The government has similarly ignored requests by independent international human rights organizations such as Human Rights Watch and Amnesty International to conduct fact-finding missions relating to the most severe abuses. Such credible investigations are critical to ensure that the perpetrators of atrocities and human rights abuses do not continue to enjoy impunity and the victims are not compelled to live in a climate of fear."

52. Al-Qalam:Letter To The Editor: White Media Biased Against Algerian Islamists It is clear that had the algerian government been criticised for its handling ofthe 1992 elections, and greater support be given to the democratic process http://mandla.co.za/al-qalam/1998/AprilMay98/Letter Algerian Islamists.htm

White Media Biased Against Algerian Islamists The white owned media continue to blame Islamic militants for the massacres in Algeria and regrettably projects the official Government line in the process. The Algerian media are heavily censored and controlled to the extent that international correspondents are rarely allowed into the country - hence no B.B.C. or C.N.N. coverage. In spite of this and the mounting evidence of French and Algerian intelligence collusion in the massacres, they fail to present the Muslim perspective in their coverage. Surely with our South African experience of the horrors of third force activity we have a better understanding of such issues. The fact of the matter is that the military government (with the full backing of the West) halted the democratic election in 1992 that looked certain to be won by the Islamic Salvation Front (FIS). It is clear that had the Algerian government been criticised for its handling of the 1992 elections, and greater support be given to the democratic process, the reign of terror might never have started. The international acceptance of the Algerian government over the six years has merely postponed the inevitable. If there is serious concern about peace and security, then the government of Algeria should have been criticised for its undemocratic behaviour from the outset. Mary Robinson, the United Nations' High Commissioner for human rights has asked (rather belatedly) for special enquiries into the massacres which the military Government rejects on the grounds that it is an internal matter. The mission's report on the causes of the conflict clearly places the onus on the Algerian Government to protect its people and show greater transparency in dealing with the six year civil war that has claimed an estimated 65 000 lives.

Four in '94 ALGERIA Leader: PRESIDENT LAMINE ZEROUAL Environment Minister: A: Creating and Implementing a National Agenda 21 In October 1993, the Algerian Government established an economic and social council to examine environmental issues. In December 1993, at a one-day workshop on "Environmental and Economic Development," different sectors of Algerian Society presented their ideas and input for creating the first National Plan for the Environment. The World Bank is also providing the Algerian Government with assistance and advice on this project. Under the auspices of the Ministry for Universities and Scientific Research, and the Ministry of Environment, a National Commission on Environment and Sustainable Development was created in January, 1994. This intersectorial commission is comprised of all the Ministries, fifteen representatives of environmental organizations, and representatives of agencies that work in environmental protection. Under the auspices of the Investment Promotion Agency, a center charged with the task of making sure that investment conditions are in line with environmental protection was created. In the area of the strengthening of institutional structures charged with the protection of the environment, an organization of land-environment inspectors has been put in place by executive decree of July 1993.

BACK RIGHTS: Europe Continues To Back U.N. Investigation in Algeria By IPS Correspondents PARIS, Jan 26 (IPS) - British Foreign Secretary Robin Cook admits that the European Union cannot act to help stop the systematic bloodshed in Algeria until the Algerian government is ready to accept its offers of help. ''Our willingness to help needs to be matched by willingness on the part of the Algerian government to accept our help,'' he told journalists in Brussels, Monday. There is a dialogue, but only a limited one. Algerian foreign minister Ahmed Attaf has agreed only ''in principle'' to visit London for talks in the six months that Britain hold the rotating EU presidency. And Cook admits that a trio of EU ministers that visited Algiers last week achieved only mode st results. But Cook did say Europe wanted Algeria to ''make progress towards more transparency, democracy and (international) dialogue''. EU foreign ministers meeting in Brussels Monday said they regretted the Algerian authorities had not taken up offers of humanitarian aid. ''The (EU) council regretted that the Algerian authorities have felt unable to provide unhindered access for international organisations, NGOs and the media,'' read a communique.

RESOLUTION ON THE SITUATION IN ALGERIA return to table : Archive EFGP 6th council meeting, Helsinki, Finland, 27-29 March 1998 Since the cancellation of the elections in 1992, more than 80.000 Algerians have been killed in a mercyless conflict between the armed forces and 'islamist' armed groups, whose methods have reached unprecedented levels of cruelty. Since October 1997 only, about 2000 men, women and children have been killed, tortured or disappeared... The civilian population has been trapped more and more in a spiral of violence, having nowhere to seek security, caught between the threats of the 'islamist' groups and those of the armed forces. As was shown during the recent massacres, the Algerian security forces have not been able to guarantee the security of the population. The policy of the Algerian government to arm the civils and encourage the formation of militias has not reduced the level of violence, on the contrary, it has further drawn the civilian population into the conflict. The international community has been so far unable or unwilling to take and implement any measures to find solutions to this tragedy, beyond pale condemnations of the violence and calls for a diplomatic solution to the conflict.

In 1992 the Algerian government canceled upcoming elections when it became apparent that Islamic fundamentalists (the FIS) would win. The outcome has been a brutal 'civil war' between the government and religious groups resulting in human rights abuses by both sides. The 16-part series, written by Robert Fisk , Middle East correspondent for The Independent newspaper of the United Kingdom, combined on-the-spot reporting with analysis, historical and investigative journalism. His dispatches, which took great courage to produce, provided readers with first hand accounts of the brutal rapes, killings, suicide bombers and ambushes that have paralyzed Algeria as well as the effect of the conflict between 'Islamist' killers and military death squads on ordinary citizens.
