	Algerian Civil War - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Throughout much of the country, they took to the hills with whatever weapons were available and became guerrilla fighters; their first attacks on the security forces (not counting the Guemmar incident) began barely a week after the coup, and soldiers and policemen rapidly became targets.
		As in previous wars, the guerrillas were almost exclusively based in the mountains of northern Algeria, whose forest and scrub cover were well suited to guerrilla warfare, and in certain areas of the cities; the very sparsely populated but oil-rich Sahara would remain mostly peaceful for almost the entire duration of the conflict.
		The government's efforts were given a boost in the aftermath of the September 11, 2001 attacks; United States sympathy for Algeria's government increased, and was expressed concretely through such actions as the freezing of GIA and GSPC assets and the supply of infra-red goggles to the army.

		Algeria's submission to the ICCPR refers to a July 1992 suspension order against La Nation resulting from an article about the arrest of a southern tribal leader that was deemed to be "false" and an "attack on national unity."

	Algeria: Star of North Africa (Independentist movement, 1926) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
		Note that the star had the same position as in the present flag, but the emblem as a whole was not as wide.
		The crescent moon and the star already appear as a local symbol on a 1927 postage stamp, and the line of separation between the green and the white is used as the the base of the star (whose upper point is toward the fly).
		I suspect that the emblem was really drawn with the flag in a vertical position, with the white upward, to copy the symbol in other flags (as for example the military flag described above).

		They are caught in the crossfire between Islamist militants, who proclaim that "those who fight with the pen shall die by the sword," and a brutal regime which uses all means possible to control the flow of information and exploits those murders to bolster support for its own counterinsurgency movement.
		Under Algeria's penal code, this is a crime warranting a five-to-ten-year prison sentence.
		To compound the extraordinary obstacles already facing the press in Algeria, the government not only offers inadequate protection to its targeted citizens but encourages the suspicions already held by Islamists that secular journalists are puppets of the state by monopolizing the distribution of information, closing Islamist publications, and censoring all security-related information.
