| [Ennahar] The Moroccan authorities once again lead their dirty war against Algeria, this time they attempt to involve it in the civil war in Libya. The latter accuses Algeria of supporting mercenaries and manipulating them. These surprising accusations by the Moroccan authorities, supposedly citing security sources, are the result of other previous accusations against Algeria at the beginning of the war in Libya, according to which the mercenaries would be transported in Algerian aircraft to Libya, in an attempt by Morocco to hold the public opinion view on Algeria and Libya instead of Morocco where the people are threatening the throne of King Mohammed VI. The Moroccan site "Maghreb Intelligentsia" accuses the Algerian army to support and manipulate the mercenaries in Libya, according to the site, adding that the doomsday scenario feared by Algeria, begins to unfold on the Algerian-Libyan border. It questioned the possibility of manipulating leaders of the Algerian army by mercenaries after they have been manipulated by the latter. The site continues the accusing the Algerian military to mount international opinion against her, when the Algerian diplomacy has denied all allegations that certain parties want to focus on Algeria. Algeria, which is, according to the Makhzen, no longer able to control the Tuareg mercenaries in the south since the civil war in Libya, mercenaries supported by the Algerian regime in Algeria returned without worry as the Algerian authorities turned a blind eye to their activities. The Moroccan site adds that after the bombing of the Libyan army, the mercenaries had decamped and left their arms to the Algerian army in order to return to their country, Mali, Niger and Mauritania, while others have managed to keep their weapons which they sold in the south. |
