ALGERIAN PATRIOTS - ENGLISH

In his traditional July 29 address marking the Throne Day, King Mohammed VI once again declared his wish to “extend a hand to Algeria” and “open a new chapter” between the two countries. It is a refrain we hear every year, a well-rehearsed ritual that clashes head-on with the ongoing hostile actions Morocco continues to take against Algeria. History Remembers… and Betrayal Repeats Itself Since Algeria’s independence in 1962, Morocco has proven that its promises collapse when confronted with its ambitions. Barely months after our liberation, the 1963 Sand War broke out, when the Moroccan army attempted to seize Tindouf and Béchar. Since then, violations have been constant: open support for separatist groups, security cooperation with foreign powers hostile to Algeria, and diplomatic and media campaigns aimed at tarnishing our nation’s image on the international stage. History is clear: those who betray you once will betray you again. The Kingdom of Cannabis… and Poisoned Borders Accordi...

Algerian-American relations are entering a new strategic phase, centered on energy cooperation and the development of vital natural resources. Three key sectors have drawn significant interest from U.S. officials: hydrocarbons, renewable energy, and mining resources. These areas are not only pillars of Algeria’s national sovereignty but also critical to global energy transition efforts and emerging geo-economic dynamics. A High-Level Visit with Strategic Significance The recent meeting in Algiers between Algeria’s Minister of State for Energy, Mines, and Renewable Energies, Mr. Mohamed Arkab , and the U.S. President’s Senior Advisor for Africa, the Middle East, and Arab Affairs, Mr. Masad Boulos , marks an important step forward. The American envoy expressed strong interest in investing in three strategic sectors in Algeria: Hydrocarbons Renewable energy Exploitation of mining resources This is more than diplomatic nicety—it reflects a clear U.S. intention to deepen its economic footpr...

In a shifting global geopolitical and energy landscape, the relationship between Algeria and Italy stands out as a model of balanced cooperation between the northern and southern shores of the Mediterranean. The state visit of President Abdelmadjid Tebboune to Rome in July 2025 marked a pivotal moment, reaffirming the “exceptional nature” of this partnership and the shared ambition to deepen cooperation across multiple dimensions — economic, energy, political, and multilateral. 1. A Mediterranean Alliance Built on Mutual Trust Italy has described its relationship with Algeria as “exceptional,” portraying it as a model for international relations grounded in respect, sovereignty, and strategic complementarity. The two nations have shown clear alignment on key regional and global issues: • A joint commitment to the UN-led process for a political resolution of the Western Sahara conflict, • A call for an immediate cessation of Israeli aggression in Gaza, and unrestricted humanitarian acce...

What was presented as a triumph of diplomacy — a ceasefire between Iran and Israel — is, according to seasoned observers, a geopolitical trap meticulously crafted to serve Tel Aviv’s military and political interests. Far from being a genuine step toward peace, the truce orchestrated by the Trump administration came at a moment when the Israeli military, overwhelmed by the precision and effectiveness of Iranian strikes, was on the brink of collapse. A Ceasefire to Rescue the Israeli Army The timing of the ceasefire was no coincidence. It was enforced almost immediately after Iran launched retaliatory missile strikes on the U.S. Al-Udeid Air Base in Qatar, in response to a limited American air raid targeting three Iranian nuclear sites. While the American narrative emphasized “de-escalation,” the real reason was far more strategic: Israel’s military was faltering. Israel’s much-hyped Iron Dome system had been saturated, ammunition stockpiles were critically low, and troop morale was crum...

On June 22, 2025, the United States launched a series of airstrikes against three Iranian sites allegedly linked to its nuclear program: Isfahan, Natanz, and Fordow. The operation, carried out by the U.S. Strategic Command, involved B-2 stealth bombers and GBU-57 bunker-buster munitions. President Donald Trump hailed the strikes as a “magnificent victory” that demonstrated the supremacy of American air power. However, Scott Ritter—a former United Nations weapons inspector and former U.S. military intelligence officer—sees the operation as more of a staged performance than a genuine military action. In a recent video, he harshly criticized what he described as a “military spectacle devoid of substance,” arguing that the strikes amounted to little more than “a made-for-TV performance” lacking strategic seriousness. Empty Targets, Hollow Symbolism According to Ritter’s assessment, most of the targeted sites were either devoid of equipment or had no remaining strategic infrastructure, due ...

In the dead of night, American warplanes streaked across the sky, striking three nuclear-related sites deep inside Iranian territory. The operation, hailed in Washington as a “decisive message” to Tehran, was presented as a show of strength — a warning against further escalation. But beyond the optics of shock and awe, a simple question lingers: what have the Americans actually achieved? 1. The Infrastructure Still Stands Despite the precision-guided munitions and real-time satellite targeting, Iran’s critical nuclear infrastructure appears largely untouched. Reports from the ground and international monitoring suggest only minor damage was inflicted on peripheral facilities. The core of Iran’s nuclear fuel cycle — centrifuge arrays, enrichment labs, and engineering hubs — remains operational. Tehran’s nuclear ambitions, far from being derailed, are now more justified than ever in the eyes of its leadership and public. 2. Enrichment Will Continue — And Accelerate The fog of diplomacy ...

As the conflict between the Islamic Republic of Iran and Israel escalates to unprecedented levels, Russia emerges as a pivotal actor attempting to navigate a delicate balance between two seemingly opposing paths: a strategic partnership with Tehran on one side, and stable, even trusting, relations with Tel Aviv on the other. Recent statements by Russian President Vladimir Putin and Kremlin officials reveal a calculated diplomatic posture, seeking to maintain influence in the Middle East without becoming militarily entangled. 1. Political Support Without Military Commitment The Kremlin has made it clear that Iran has not requested any military assistance from Russia, and that their strategic partnership includes no defense clauses. While this statement may appear technical, it carries significant political implications: Moscow is intentionally avoiding any direct involvement in the conflict, while still offering general political backing to Tehran. Russia acknowledges the presence of ov...
