Economic hit men on the run

Yes, the Algerian gas plant crisis was predictable:


However, something not mentioned in this article should be obvious to anyone: This plant is not owned by Algerians, and the wealth it generates goes mainly to non-Algerians.

Or, this can be stated another way: There are millions of impoverished, starving people in Africa, but the ruling classes of the world and their one percent accomplices are stealing Africa's wealth for themselves.

Sooner or later, Les Misérables and/or their champions will rise up and drive off the neoliberal thieves and the economic hit men. It's what any decent person would do.

The United States and NATO want you to believe that the attackers are “terrorists”. Can you please explain to me why they shouldn’t be called “Robin Hoods”, “patriots”, or “freedom fighters” instead?

Wasn't Frantz Fanon (author of The Wretched of the Earth) from Algeria? According to Webster Tarpley, Fanon was one of Obama ad-Dajjal's early heroes (but I can't say he's a hero of mine). Did you ever read what the French did to the Algerians during their war of independence? And you still wonder why they're angry at foreigners? You must be joking!
