And, let's not forget, that when Islamofascists slaughter 100 times the number of people killed in the current "intifadeh", it is not newsworthy, because, well, (the attitude seems to be) what can we expect of Muslims? Who will care about the poor children of Algeria? As the Islamofascists believe all Muslim bloodletting is justified, I am sure we will hear a spirited defense of the Algerian childslaughter.

Algeria says rebels kill 22 civilians


ALGIERS, Feb 5 (Reuters) - Suspected Islamic rebels have shot dead or slit the throats of 22 civilians in western Algeria overnight, the official Algerian news agency APS said on Tuesday, quoting government security forces.

Rebels bombed their way into a home and killed 13 members of a family in Sidi Lakhdar area in Ain Defla province, 130 km (80 miles) southwest of Algiers, it said.

"Some of the victims were shot dead while others have their throats slashed," APS added. The attackers blew up the door with an unspecified explosive to break into the home, it said.

APS said the family's father was a pro-government militiaman.

In another attack against civilians also in Sidi Lakhdar, suspected rebels shot dead nine people and wounded three. APS said the killing took place on a road in the area. It gave no further details.

In Tizi Ouzou region, 90 km (55 miles) east of Algiers, rebels killed three militiamen and wounded three others early on Tuesday, said APS, quoting government security forces.

The attacks brought to more than 60 the number of people killed in violence in the past five weeks, according to newspaper and official reports.

The government accuses Islamic rebels of slaughtering thousands of civilians in gruesome massacres in the past seven years.

Algeria has been racked by brutal civil strife since early 1992 when authorities scrapped a general election radical Islamists were poised to win.

Government figures show that more than 100,000 people have been killed since then, though independent sources put the number of deaths at up to 150,000.

well the U N defends many. But, the U N has been in Palestinian refugee camps and didn't do very much to effectively prevent storage of weapons, stockpiling of munitions, training of terrorists, indoctrination of everyone including kids to hate and kill Jews. But, now, they say Israel should withdraw from camps.

An occupying army, not Jews.

Your smoke screen is losing it's effectiveness.
