Citizens of neighboring countries (Morocco,Tunisia) do not rush to settle in Algeria, work and live there. They do not even rush to visit this unattractive country.
Algeria is not in a simple slump, but in deep shit since independence and for many centuries, if one believes that this country has existed before. Outside the Mediterranean, Algeria says nothing to anyone and very few people are able to locate it on the map. At first I thought that the people of these remote countries were stupid and uneducated because they did not know where Algeria was. I later discovered that I myself am unable to locate exactly where Botswana is on the map of my continent, Africa.
This is because Botswana is a small insignificant country that has no reason to catch my attention. It’s the same for the average North European who knows nothing about Algeria.
It is called an underdeveloped country. A country without human resources, without economic resources, without political resources and without cultural resources. People around the wold only talk about this country when there is a civil war or the massacres, an election tainted by fraud or a demonstration that results in deaths, not otherwise.
A country under oil infusion who expect that the serum bag hanging from the bed is empty to convulse and die on its deathbed after horrific civil wars (the 200,000 victims after FIS will only be trifles). Morocco and Tunisia have a much better chance to survive than Algeria.

COLONIAL ALGERIA, CHIMERA AND THE PRESIDENCY OF THE VACUUM
It’s tug-of-war in this country called Algeria, a chimera created by colonial France in 1839, we cannot repeat it enough. Hey, it’s France and Europe in question.
One morning everyone from France and Europe, he is beautiful and he is kind to some of the Algerians while he is all mean and ugly to the others of the Algerians. So on, we redistribute the cards and we start again as in the dupe card game of ” Rey-Rey ”, the ” Bonneteau ” “one shot you see her and another you don’t see her” he acts of the card and vice versa to become all ugly and all nasty for others and so on time goes by and no one calls this junta to account.
Everyone has fun and take care as best they can in this country left to their own devices but hanging on the lips or the actions of European leaders and elected representatives, basically all those who dare to speak about their country from Europe .
As soon as it comes to what they call their ” Algeria ”, every word said, good or bad, is labeled as interference by one when the other denies it. He has the good political “Boulitique” bonneteau.
It is interference that it is said one! No ! interference yourself responds the other.
In this game of dupes and crooks, in this dead country where each of the politicians plays who-me-I, it is who to be more nationalist and more patriotic than the other. Each one swaps from his place to switch from one to the other and from the other to one. No it’s not schizophrenia it’s just schizophrenia, the main thing is to move in order to exist and to exist and then to move.
Yes for Macron, no for Emmanuel and vice versa.
But sometimes the situation is funny, there is data that everyone sees without seeing it.
From the vase, the Berzidene Tebounne lying in a German hospital bed, nobody talks about interference, moreover, who interfered in the affairs of the other in this story?
Is it Germany which interfered in the medical intimacy of Tebounne or it is the vase which interfered in the hospital bed of the good mother Merkel, daughter of a pastor, Christian charity is worth mercy to this Muslim vase who is struggling to recover from covid-19 when the average hospitalization for this kind of disease is 15 days, especially treated with a medical protocol that makes thousands of sick Algerian subjects abandoned to suffering dream and death.
Trump got back on his feet in the hospital and came out two days later, Boris Johnson entered a semi-comatose state, he came out a week later.
Hell then! What about this Algerian covid-19, it is tenacious and tough. To believe that since he ingested himself or that the vase ingested it in his lungs, will know, he does not want to come out. Smart ass.
Be that as it may, whether the vase gets on its feet or on wheels like its predecessor, Europe has found a way to entertain the Algerian gallery where everyone calls themselves a traitor.
The fermented microcosm of the small Algerian political staff is taking full advantage of “small secular democrats, ultra-minorities” including the Kabyle, Belhimer the Minister of Communication of Algeria who uses the FLN / FIS logomachy, the has aligned convicts on the same wall as Reporters Without Borders, AFD, NED, TV5, the Mossad annexes etc … by Allah, as many enemies of Algeria, a real paranoid delirium.
Gosh ! Belhimer has just forgotten Morocco in this list as for Mas Ferhat Mehenni it is the Algerian barbouzes who are responsible for threatening him with death. This is Algeria … Violent.
In these times of scarcity when Algerian subjects can no longer find much to eat and where and how to take care of themselves where the question of article 102 of the constitution of Algeria should arise, the junta finds a diversion.
Affected and disappeared in fact since October 15 and not the 28 as claimed, the vase lead by the virus risks playing the extensions in power at Bouteflika.
Promulgate the new / old constitution tea towels and wait on a bed of the hospital palace of Zéralda next to his Fakhamatouhou for the next term of office, if Allah wills of course, his masters dream it anyway unless one another vase is ready already.

THEY ARE MORE AND MORE ATTRACTED BY HARGA (Flee Algeria by sea)
These women who brave the sea
“After eight hours of horror, we arrived in Almeria Saint-José. Once we had our feet on the ground, we were relieved to find no surveillance at the beach. From there we took the bus to the city, then to Alicante where we were accommodated for two days by a contact. Once in Barcelona, Amina was picked up by her mother to join Portugal. ”
“There is nothing here, it is nothingness.” This is how Imane, 24, from the wilaya of Relizane, begins, in a barely audible voice, his story. She made two attempts to migrate illegally by sea, but failed to reach the Spanish shore.
The first time in 2018, when a group in their neighborhood got in touch with a network of smugglers. “We arrived in Oran with, in the close proximity of each of us, 20,000 DA and 50 €. The guy tried to rip us off. A big fight ensues. I fled for fear of being arrested, ”she said.
On September 1, 2019, a new start is organized from a beach in Aïn El-Turck, in Oran. Imane withdraws at the last minute. “I was divided. Everything was mixed up in my head. I had a bad feeling, ”she says. But that evening, sixteen young people under 30, some of whom were educated in the same high school as Imane, boarded a “boti” (small fishing boat measuring 4 to 6 m) which awaited them in the Oran region. They will never get to their destination. The results are tragic: two survivors, the rest are missing.
Among them, Maher, 26, who had already taken off a year earlier with her brother Riad, and Halima, a relative. Halima, 27, was not getting along with her stepmother. She was obsessed with leaving “family hell”. The three harraga will be arrested by the Spanish police in Cartagena and placed in a social shelter. “They were able, after a stay there, to reach Germany, but Maher could not endure the cold and the remoteness and returned to the country in February 2019.
The death of his mother in June and legal setbacks prompted him to repeat the experience six months later, ”says his father. Without news from him since September 2019, his family will not have the opportunity to announce the judgment in his favor a few weeks after his second harga attempt. Traumatized by the loss of the members of the group with whom she was to embark for Spain, Imane decides not to give in to the call of the sea.
The young girl completed her schooling until the end of her final year, but was unable to pass her baccalaureate for family reasons, she is content to say. She lives with her 71-year-old adoptive mother: “Sometimes I tell myself that I don’t have the right to leave her alone and sometimes I panic that I will be alone, without a family, if she dies.
In any case, I will not try harga again. Once the borders reopen, I will apply for a visa for Turkey, and from there I will travel to Germany where a harrag neighbor already lives. He promised to take care of me for the first time and then help me find a job. ” While waiting for this project to materialize, Imane is struggling to find his way. She did an internship as a civil toll agent, and then a hairdresser, without finding a job.
Chemssou, who settled in Germany for two years, recounts his journey with, in the group, a young woman of 27 who was to join her mother installed in Portugal, after her divorce. Amina made several attempts to obtain a visa. Annoyed by the multiple refusals, she took the plunge into irregular emigration. Price of the crossing: 45 million centimes.
In January 2018, the makeshift boat sets off from Oran. Quickly spotted by the Coast Guard, the group turn around, dispose of the gasoline, and an accomplice helps them cover up the “boti”.
On January 7, the small fishing boat sets sail at 10 p.m. with seven harraga on board, provided with just a few euros, water, dates and dry cakes. “Amina, seated at the other end, did not say a word, even when the boat was submerged in extremely rough seas that day. We started to pray, there was only God who could save us.
After eight hours of horror, we arrived in Almeria Saint-José. Once we had our feet on the ground, we were relieved to find no surveillance at the beach. From there we took the bus to the city, then to Alicante where we were accommodated for two days by a contact. Once in Barcelona, Amina was picked up by her mother to join Portugal ”, recounts Chemssou.
What does it feel like when you’re in the boat?
Relief, replies Maïssa, 19. Fear arises when you can no longer see the earth and hear only the sound of the engine. At one point, I wanted to come back and hug my mother for a moment longer. I felt a lot of remorse for getting on board leaving her behind. ” Maïssa is an only child, unemployed since graduating in cooking in 2012.
She dreamed of opening a traditional cake business and later a training school. But the young girl did not have the necessary resources to carry out this project. Settled for three years in France, after a short stay in Spain where she was hosted by an aunt, Maïssa survives thanks to replacements in fast food restaurants. “It’s not the situation I was hoping for, but here you are on welfare and life is better,” she says.
3-year-old Kenzi was not so lucky. His body was found floating off the coast of Annaba in August 2020. There were 38 illegal immigrants in two boats caught in the swells before reaching the Italian coast.
Among the passengers were four women. One of them was about to join her husband in Marseille, who left under the same conditions. When the boat capsizes, the mother loses her balance and the child falls into the water before an Algerian-flagged boat rescues them, a family member said.
Leaving the country is the only solution for many women and families who no longer believe in the possibility of a decent life in the country. “Women who take to the seas are not suicidal. They make a very difficult decision and assess the risks. The smugglers explained to us that with the borders closed during the Covid-19 pandemic, the margin for repatriation is reduced. Their plan consisted in organizing numerous and simultaneous departures so that the national navy was overwhelmed and, later, the Spanish security forces ”, confides Yamina de Boumerdès, who was to attempt the adventure last August, but dissuaded by his older sister.
Social networks play a huge role in selling the dream. Once in Europe, some harraga overplay their success story through the publication of photos of their daily life. These scenes make it possible not to lose face vis-à-vis the family back home. And sometimes aim not to alarm him. Beyond dangling a fantasy version of the Old Continent, social networks allow candidates for illegal emigration to exchange tips to thwart the vigilance of the Coast Guard and find smugglers.
Others resort to an experienced person who says he is able to get a boat to its destination. Dreaming of a better life, like them, his goal is not pecuniary. Its special role exempts it from financial participation in the acquisition of the necessary equipment: boat, motor, compass and GPS, gasoline cans and rarely life jackets. The harraga also have to pay a resident near the plaza from which they will depart to watch over equipment often buried in the sand.
This whole organization is exclusively male, but women pay the same rate as men. Like Amina or Maïssa, some are recovered on the landing coasts or adjoining towns by members of their families. But the lives of others come to an abrupt end in the open sea. This is also the tragic reality of the harga.
