Muchos pueblos sometidos por los suyos o colonizados por otros esperaban cambios a partir de ese 8 de mayo de 1945, el día de la victoria de los aliados sobre Alemania. La mayoría de los españoles consideraban que los aliados irían por Franco, su régimen no duraría mucho. Pocos imaginaban que en 1949 EEUU pactaba un apoyo que lo haría durar hasta su muerte en 1975. Ho Chi Minh confiaba que el discurso anticolonialista U.S. right to continue receiving support for independence from France and U.S. had done in the Vietnamese struggle against the Japanese.
colonized countries in nationalist fronts were always under suspicion ally. Had occurred in some cases for which the considereban in all authorities the fact that Nazi Germany established contacts with nationalist leaders, something that occurred mainly in Africa and the Middle East. In Algeria esab several nationalist leaders in exile and other prisons as Messali Hadj:
Thousands of Algerians took to celebrate that day in a march for victory in the city of Sétif. They stressed also by the release of Hajj, who was about to be moved to another city.
The French campaign was from Africa to Italy and France and from there to Germany used a lot of colonial troops including the Algerian sharpshooter. Many families that day had their children in Europe when they needed their young arms to maintain them. But that was the reason to join the French army.
Pay and food out of an Algeria that was only for the settlers, the Pieds Noir, Europeans of various backgrounds, Jewish, English, Maltese, Alsace in 1870 emigrated with his vines by the occupation of the Empire German after the Franco-Prussian war. They were the owners of the land, in a process similar to that of immigration in Argentina Bartolomé Mitre.
The protesters had agreed not to fly flags of independence, that was the condition imposed by the French authorities, but the passions were to burst. Someone was waving a flag with the national colors. The French tried to take it which caused an uproar and the start of the shooting. Bouzid Saal, 26, took the flag and dropped dead in a bullet of the Gendarmerie, chaos erupts.
the mayor of Setif, Albert Denier, local secretary of the Communist Party, the demonstrators cut off a hand with an ax blow:
What followed was a rampant wave of sharp knives. First in the city of Sétif with more than 30 dead Europeans. In the weeks following the Algerian extremists beheading surfaced settler families in isolated farm towns. What were the French authorities was appalling. Brutally raped women, husbands with open neck and genitals in the mouth.
European In total 103 dead. Across the world, in Indochina was the same. Among the Japanese surrender and the arrival of British forces, the Gurkhas of General Gacey, replaced in December 1945 by General Leclerc, the French expeditionary force, the Vietminh came to slaughter many French settlers without a drop less than cruelty left shows to be seen for eyes in horror, was the idea, a presentation of landscapes of mutilated bodies. French public opinion is outraged. The newspaper l'Humanité describes the protesters as "provocative Hitler."
Funeral European victims
When Italian partisans killed 33 German soldiers, Hitler ordered a retaliatory 50 X 1. Up to Keppler, the SS officer in charge of implementing it considered excessive, it was a 10 X 1 and this was done. Were killed at the Fosse Ardiantinas 333 randomly selected civilians. The error of those 3 over was what enabled Keppler judge over due disobedience in the war. Over time flee from captivity and die of old next to his wife. His second, Priebcke, lived the rest of his life in Bariloche, to be extradited to Italy after decades of being.
Torpedo Le Triomphant
What did the French exceeded the Hitler. De Gaulle ordered the repression. Do not put any proportion in mind, naval fire bombed from the coast and fighter jets to entire villages in the area. Senegalese colonial troops and Foreign Legion aircraft carried emergency U.S. from Siddi Bel Abbes, swept around the ground in an open hunting season.
historians dispute the figure. Is that no census was made the kill. The more conservative number is between 8,000 and 15,000. Algerians remember every May 8 at its 45,000 dead but seems exaggerated and propaganda is reinforced by the study done by a specialist Algerian demography, based on studies done in previous years to the slaughter and the calculation of which put the number at 40,000. The Governor General of Algeria, Yves Chataigneau dared to say 1165.
lasted until 22 May. Followed by a false idea that all the French had pacified. For the Algerians took them a decade to bring everything to a state of war. After the defeat of Dien Bien Phu in Indochina in 1954, the feeling of a France which could overcome finally convinced the most reluctant. The French government paratroop officers fed, stunted his captivity in North Vietnam and launched his follies purchased with frustration at the defeat, with honor wounded, infected "evil yellow" and unwilling to lose a war most blood and fire to suppress the Algerian FLN. The orders came from a socialist government and the minister who brought this information was Mitterrand. Is that Europeans may be right or left, which is never stop being European imperialists.
About 7 years later, in 1961, defeated the FLN in the Casbah in 1957, the desire for independence is so great that it is all the Algerian people standing. Columns down the Casbah huge hits, the CRS are shot with machine guns, many die, but nobody stops. In July 1962 Algeria declares independence. The French colony was established in 1830.
Being that once the pictures were a graphic medium that "informed" public opinion, it's a battle in Algeria in 1836, and showed the French that cruelty was not only Algeria and also part of its colonial occupation forces.
