The Night of the Generals: Unveiling the Power Struggles and Corruption in Algeria’s Military Hierarchy

2023-09-07 22:00:00

In Algeria, it is “the night of the generals“. Exactly a year ago, Chenegriha presided over the official installation of Major General M’henna Djebar as Director General of Documentation and External Security (DGDSE) “in the name of ‘Monsieur’ the President of the Republic, Supreme Head of the Armed Forces, Minister of National Defense and in accordance with the Presidential Decree of September 1, 2022“.

Today more than ever the coat of arms of this emblematic military leader of the Algerian regime, is more than ever restored, acclaimed in this, by the senile chief of the ANP Chenegriha in person. The story: Sunday, August 27, a very tense meeting between the two senile in power in Algiers, came close to breaking up. In question the BRICS Group of course! but not only. The calamitous management of the skills of the generals was invited to this meeting forced by one of the two grouchy of the Muppets show made in Algeria. The president with the unpronounceable name then accused the general in childbirth of having engineered a smear campaign against him through the media and social networks, which the Algerian secret services, however under his control, had rejected.

Indeed, the three intelligence services, exterior, interior and technical by their military status depend on the President of the Republic, Supreme Chief of the Armed Forces and Minister of National Defence. But there is a saying, that of the “cat when it is not there“, we suspect strongly and suddenly who can dance well. This is how the brave president, vexed and angry, demanded neither more nor less, the head of the powerful boss of Algerian foreign intelligence, Major General Djebar.

In short, since then, and even a few days before, the latter was on an ejection seat and was waiting, so to speak, for his time. Also as a good fox he had used trickery by protecting his back. Especially since these “unfortunate” circumstances occurred just after he had been refused the rank of army general to which he so aspired. In question his imprisonment in 2019 for “illicit enrichment“, a crime very liable to “thanks“ to the ANP, since the latter is in need of certain kleenex services or not. This in no way detracts from his “historic” past as executioner of the Algerian people during the dark decade, with the icing on the cake being the heads of the monks of Tibhirine. It was, moreover, for the man a golden springboard towards glorious years.

A skin of grief, for secret services or abuse in Algeria. It is indeed an open secret. The presidential clan has never been able or able to swallow the M’henna Djebar in question. So we regularly whispered in the presidential ear the “undesirability” of a general who had suddenly and as if by chance reappeared in the mysteries of the upper sphere of the military junta, on the occasion of the visit that Emmanuel Macon had performed in Algeria. To the great displeasure of el mouradia therefore, we will not, in the end, have sacrificed Djebar on the altar of false or proven accusations against him. It is a real military setback, which the president is suffering there, who seems to see his status more and more mortgaged. But this is not exceptional in Algeria, examples of suspended sentences regardless of their rank, abound.

For the time being, the ugly duckling of the moment is named Brahim Gouasmia, it is a general ex-first responsible for the Higher School of Special Troops (ESTS) who is in the spotlight. He is under investigation into corrupt practices within this elite school of the Algerian army. Let’s bet that he should bear the brunt of the eternal settling of accounts between generals against the backdrop of clan struggles.

So that’s it, for the corporals East of Eden. It is as if one would say that the ANP has a need for youth and change in its hierarchy. But in Algeria, “the night of the generals” is a proven fact. A tire-larigot they are either sacrificed or whitewashed and this, according to the mood of everything in each of the military leaders. Between us, the “who kills who” sticks perfectly to the buttocks of, Said Chenegriha, M’henna Djebar Khaled Nezzar, Mohamed Mediène, said Toufik or others… to name only one of the seven tentacles of the monster that is the ‘ANP. Their responsibility and involvement in the massacres of innocent civilians during the dark decade are well established.

This is also why they defend tooth and nail the so-called Nezzar, dying and who, if he goes to his trial, would have confessed, in Switzerland, many things which would strongly implicate his “brothers in arms “. It is certain that the appearance of the former Minister of National Defense and former Chief of Staff of the ANP would put the latter in dirty sheets. It is as the other would say “an international geopolitical turmoil” in perspective if the trial takes place.
