History

Un pays conquis par les arabes est bientot ruiné (IBN KHALDOUN):
Ils sont en effet, en raison de leur naturel farouche, gens de pilleries et de brigandage : tout ce dont ils peuvent se saisir sans lutte et sans danger, ils l'enlèvent, puis ils s'enfuient vers leurs pâturages du désert. Ils n'attaquent point ouvertement, ni ne combattent en bataille rangée, à moins d'y être contraints pour leur propre défense : aussi, s'ils se heurtent à une forteresse ou à un endroit qui leur réserve des difficultés, ils les laissent de côté, sans les attaquer, et se tournent vers quelque objet de conquête facile. Les tribus qui se retranchent contre eux dans les rochers des montagnes sont à l'abri de leurs rapines et de leurs violences, car ils n'escaladent point les hauteurs, ni ne s'engagent dans des terrains difficiles, ni ne s'exposent à des dangers pour les atteindre. Quant aux plaines, s'ils peuvent s'en emparer du fait qu'elles sont mal gardées ou que le pouvoir gouvernemental manque de force, elles deviennent leur butin et la proie qu'ils dévorent ......

Azawad: open letter to the candidates for the French presidential election
Since the independence of Mali in 1960, Bamako turns the back to Azawad, traditional territory of the Tuareg people. At this socioeconomic marginalization wanted by the malian governments were added periods of drought with the dramatic consequences for the populations. Calls for help in favour of North-Mali were never understood by Bamako. Besides, the Tuareg did not stop alerting the malian authorities on the injustices, the discriminations, the corruption and the violations of the human rights which they undergo as well as the not democratic governance which leaves them no place in the management of the affairs of the country. The accumulation of these grievances to which the Malian power brought no answer, except the repression, provoked a series of revolts of the Tuaregs which repeat since the beginning of 1990s....

Mali: for a definitive solution for the conflict in Azawad
Since a few days ago, North-Mali is aware of a renewed tension between the malian regular army and the fighters of the National Movement of Liberation of Azawad (MNLA). The Amazigh World Congress (CMA) regrets and condemns the use of weapons as a solution for the political conflicts and is strongly worried about the consequences of the military escalation on the inhabitants of the region. The CMA particularly warns the malian army to avoid any temptation to go against the civil populations, already strongly deteriorated by the life conditions in these arid territories.... Full story

Survey

The West is silent; France has expressed its concern, against Tuareg fighters who keep coming, against all odds, victory after victory over the Mali and Niger military troops. Thanks to the Tuareg determination for freedom and through the weapons recovered from Qaddafi.
France, which is concerned and the silent West should they not support those Amazigh(berber) Touareg people for the following reasons:
• The Tuareg rebellion is not dated today, and if this nation takes up arms every time is that it has its reasons that are not yet settled.
• The Touareg people auto-determination is a human right that France should support since it is always self-proclaimed human rights defender, and its last military intervention in Lybia is explained so.
• The origin of Tuareg people suffering is well and truly colonial France, who shared it as a cake between state nations.
• The Tuareg people should never be an exception after the support of the West countries to  Libyan, Egyptian, Tunisian peoples and other ..
• The Tuareg fighters had said they are against al Qaeda, which took control of the region under the silence of Mali and Niger regimes, which should normally be a point in their favor.

Why in your opinion, despite all, the west is stil silent and France is stil worried and refuses to provide support to a people in de in danger?

Because the Tuareg rebellion is not legitimate
Because France is concerned about the future of Mali and Niger territorial unity
Because France is concerned about the future of Arab states in North Africa that are also challenged by Amazigh(Berber) identity awakening
Because France is concerned about the future of Touareg Uranium which had always exploded for these nuclear power plants, while leaving Tuareg people in total poverty

Who took power over Morocco?
Here is a video about the Moroccan Health Minister Madame Yasmina Badou of the Family of prime minister. She couldn't stop laughing while she had to answer a deputy's question about the Leishmaniose disease common and sometimes epidemic in the region of Tafilalt Morocco. This gives you an idea about who's in charge of arabe government who took power over Morocco.
