"Car bombs erupt in Algeria in a 2d deadly day; 11 killed" by Jeffrey Fleishman, Los Angeles Times | August 21, 2008
CAIRO - Car bombs struck near a hotel and a military compound in Algeria yesterday, killing at least 11 people and wounding 31 others, the Algerian Interior Ministry said. The two blasts followed by a day a deadly attack on prospective recruits at a police academy.
A string of assaults over the last 18 months has conjured an eerie echo from the nation's civil war of a decade ago. No group claimed responsibility for yesterday's explosions, but officials suspect they were orchestrated by the emboldened Al Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb.
The members of the Al Qaeda-linked organization are holdovers from Islamic militias that battled the government from 1992 until 2002, when reconciliation and amnesty programs helped end a civil war that had killed an estimated 200,000 people.
"The terrorists have changed the strategy," Mahmoud Belhimeur, deputy editor of El Khabar daily, said in a telephone interview. "They're using tactics from Iraq and Afghanistan. They're using the Internet for recruiting and cellphones to explode bombs."
Yup, it is "Al-CIA-Duh" all right!
A journalist who asked not to be named said Algerians were frustrated at the government's inability to stop the attacks. The most recent violence occurred east of Algiers, in the Kabylia region, where security forces have been battling militants.
"People don't understand," said the journalist. "They're told by the government that a military crackdown is underway, yet they can't believe what they're seeing. They say reconciliation attempts have done nothing. They're scared that the war of the 1990s will come back."Doing everything we can!!!

And with all the starving and suffering occurring in Africa, what else does the BG give you?
"Sudan leader vows to hold elections
ISTANBUL - Sudan's indicted president again denied yesterday that his regime is orchestrating genocide in the troubled western region of Darfur and promised to hold free and fair elections next year. President Omar al-Bashir was indicted by the International Criminal Court last month. Prosecutors charged that government-backed militias have killed 300,000 ethnic Africans since 2003. Bashir, who is visiting Turkey, said the death toll was inflated (AP)."
Well, that's half-a-million people DEAD in about a sentence combined.
But they are just black Africans, not Jews, so..... I'm sick of the selectivity and garbage pushing Zionist MSM and its racism, I'll tell you that!
How often do they bring up the 6 MILLION DEAD in the CONGO, huh?
