We recently launched a popular petition calling for the immediate deportation of Moroccans residing illegally on our soil. This move is neither a whim nor an expression of hatred, as some claim, but simply a call to respect the laws of the Republic, which regulate entry and residence in the national territory. Nevertheless, this initiative has sparked a wave of fierce attacks on social media, sometimes coming from individuals who claim to be “Algerians.”
Today, it is our duty to clarify to public opinion the objective reasons that have led us to this step. In this article, we will outline three fundamental dimensions: economic, security, and social. We will then conclude by exposing the real motivations of those who oppose this petition, who in truth serve the project of chaos and threaten Algeria’s future.

1) Financial Drain
Algeria currently hosts between 800,000 and 1.2 million illegal Moroccans. These individuals work without work permits, without administrative existence, and pay neither taxes nor social contributions. Worse still, they benefit from free healthcare by defrauding Algeria’s social security system through the illegal use of “Chifa” health cards.
Even more alarming, over 75% of their income is transferred to Morocco through informal currency transfer networks, depriving Algeria’s economy and bolstering that of a hostile country.
The numbers are staggering:
- Tax and social contribution losses: $1 billion annually
- Healthcare system losses: $800 million annually
- Illegal transfers: $2–3 billion annually
➡️ Total losses: $3.8 to $4.8 billion annually.
How do our opponents justify this hemorrhage? By what logic must honest Algerians pay their taxes, while illegal Moroccans are allowed to plunder our economy and finance a country conspiring against us?
2) Security Threat
Beyond the financial catastrophe lies a serious security threat. French journalist Georges Malbrunot revealed that the Mossad actively recruits among Moroccans in France. Why should we assume that the Zionist entity would not employ the same strategy in Algeria, where nearly 1.2 million Moroccans live illegally?
An illegal migrant exists entirely outside administrative oversight. No intelligence service in the world can monitor such numbers. Monitoring 1.2 million people would require more than 7.2 million security agents—an impossibility.
The question is therefore simple: why should we keep on our soil nationals of a hostile country that conspires against us day and night, floods our nation with drugs, and collaborates with the Zionist entity to undermine Algeria?
3) Threat to the Social Fabric
Perhaps the most insidious impact is the social dimension. The vast majority of illegal Moroccans in Algeria are men, opening the door to mixed marriages. Yet we know how the Makhzen exploits its diaspora abroad as a tool of influence and political leverage. In France, Belgium, the Netherlands, and Spain, Moroccan consulates directly instruct their communities on voting and political stances.
Allowing such a pattern to take root in Algeria would mean creating a fifth column that endangers our future and could be used against us in any potential confrontation with Morocco.
We Are Not Racist, We Are Patriotic
Some accuse us of racism or xenophobia. This is a false accusation. We are not targeting all foreigners, but specifically the citizens of a hostile country that conspires against Algeria, relying on foreign powers—chief among them the Zionist entity—to destabilize us.
Even the so-called “humanitarian” argument does not stand. How many Moroccans have prospered thanks to Algeria, only to return home and openly insult and defame our country?
Who Opposes the Petition?
Those who oppose this initiative often do so for personal reasons: mixed marriages, financial interests, or collusion with smuggling networks. But the state cannot be taken hostage by private interests. The national interest will always take precedence over individual concerns.
Today, Algeria faces a fifth-generation war, where social infiltration and media manipulation replace tanks and aircraft. Keeping more than a million illegal Moroccans on our territory is not “tolerance”—it is outright treason.
We conclude with the words of the late President Houari Boumediene:
“Those who cannot help us should, at the very least, remain silent.”
