How can "FLN terrorism in French Algeria" be a cause for the 'Algerian War of Independence'? If anything it would a tactic within that war. Surely the cause is the French colonial rule.
Can someone remove this photo? It has nothing to do with the Algerian war but represents nowadays Corsican independentists, FLNC meaning "front de liberation nationale de la Corse"
". The most notable manifestation of the new urban campaign was the Battle of Algiers, which began on September 30, 1956, when three women placed bombs at three sites including the downtown office of Air France."
Dear friends,
The events that generally constitute the Battle happened in 1957, not 1956. Although the date above for the bombings is apparently correct, (The quote seems to be from the LOC country study on Algeria.) The Battle for Algiers began On January 28, 1957 following the national strike.
Specifica dates of interest:
28 January: General strike begins in Algiers which is broken by the paras.
5 March: Larbi Ben M'hidi, FLN leader captured on 25 February, dies in custody.
21 May: Fall of the Mollet government.
29 May: An FLN commando unit massacres all the men in the village of Melouza who belong to the rival MNA.
12 September: Resignation of Paul Teitgen, secretary general for the police in Algiers, who protests at the torture methods used by the paras.
24 September: Head of the Algiers FLN, Yacef Saadi, is arrested in the Casbah.
I haven't read Ganser's book. What does he say the role of Gladio was? The article doesn't mention it outside the infobox Prezbo (talk) 00:23, 17 November 2023 (UTC)
This war did not lead to the end of The French Empire, just led it’s decline. Leninistpython (talk) 01:57, 14 February 2024 (UTC)
Calling it Algerian war sounds a little biased. The war was a war of independence against a colonial power. I would suggest changing it because it sounds like a French nationalist picked this title. Previously it used to be called Algerian War of Independence on Wikipedia until someone changed it. Ahm1453 (talk) 20:38, 26 August 2024 (UTC)
