A request to the president. I have been looking for a job since 2002. If anyone has a company or something similar, please contact me. Thanks 1,000,000 times.

بلال Posted 2009-03-17

Algeria is not an organized state. There is chaos and non implementation of law.

نصرالدين Posted 2009-03-18

We hope that the elections will be free, fair and a big ceremony for Algerians, God willing. Thank you.

ناصرمهند Posted 2009-03-18

These elections are insignificant. It is Bouteflika who will win. Other candidates are like rabbits. They were instituted by the state as cover to carry out the elections. They granted them a billion and a half which they will put in their pockets. Bouteflika made a mistake when he insulted Chaouiya and described them as relics which fell in a dish of Makroud and finished it.

وليـد Posted 2009-03-18

By God, as it is said in the dialect "the game is sold". I mean the result is pre-settled from the beginning. This means that Bouteflika is the president and will remain the president until death. This is Algeria whether we like it or not.

Long live Bouteflika. There is no one better than him. We are with you with our hearts. May God protect you.

Good evening everyone.

Hocine-Gherbi Posted 2009-03-19

Hello- I think that Magharebia has the duty of covering the Algerian elections and doing it well. Like the majority of our citizens, I believe that the best placed candidate is Mr Bouteflika and I would also place Miss Hanoune in second place. We hope that the future president will re-orient and direct our institutions, including that of securities towards the national economy. These institutions could offer the nation great service by controlling poor management, protecting workers, stepping in with regards to bureaucratic deadlocks and corruption, and making all regions profitable and all inhabitants of the country gainful. Terrorism has its solutions and it is limited to a few a regions, so it cannot justify the absence of larger projects (for example: renovating the capital, Algiers, building a railroad from the South to Tindouf through Ghardia and Adrar, creating new cities in the south out of Illizi, Ain Salah, Adrar and Hassi El Menia in order to promote agriculture). If it is a problem of research, then it should be enough to resume implementing the agrarian revolution and adapt it to our present situation. Let us begin by trusting the citizens, officials and good managers and removing road blocks on all roads, which cause too much time to be lost for transport and, thus, the economy. The police should be in everybody’s business, but they should be discreet like they were in late Boumedienne’s time. It is a shame to see our state representatives make a show of arms in all corners of the country for no reason. Indeed, this is justified in certain regions, but not throughout the whole country. This is the point of view of a retiree. –Hocein-Gherbi, ML

عائشة Posted 2009-03-19

I offer my vote to president Abdelaziz Bouteflika because he is firstly a human. The human by nature, has good and evil qualities. We know, praise be to God, that the good is the feature of our president. Reality has shown this. So let’s not lie to ourselves. He did what he could do. Can you live as a rich man without security? He has established security. The man does not have the ring of Solomon. If we want to change our country, we must change ourselves first from its hatreds. May God endow this country with the righteous person who fears Him and thus will care for its people.

mohamed Posted 2009-03-19

We have a president who is already elected and five rabbits he pulls out of hats for each electoral event. On the evening of 9 April, they will be put back in the hat because they are reusable. Have you ever seen a khouroutou (Arab) president who was elected democratically? This is a masquerade and, moreover, it has been this way since 1962. The same goes for Tunisia, Libya, Egypt and Syria. We have become the laughing stock of the world. A little country like Israel holds more respect in the world than all the Arab countries together.

djamal Posted 2009-03-19

In order to choose a candidate, it is necessary to know how to choose between accepting what we cannot change and changing what we cannot accept. Personally, I choose the latter, and I hope the same for all Algerians as a whole.

I vote for our dear president "boutesrika".

جلفاوي رفيق Posted 2009-03-20

The problem is not the problem of Bouteflika. The catastrophe is far worse than this. So have we ever thought of the era after Bouteflika? If the president after Bouteflika is oppressive (dictator), can the people dismiss him? Of course not- especially if he falsifies elections. As to the statement saying that it is Bouteflika who restored security, this shows that those who believe it are ignorant people. This is because the foundation was established by Zeroual in the mercy law. But keeping security forces in prison or expelling them from the army for mistakes they are not responsible for, while their only guilt is that they were fighting terrorism. Real reconciliation is not to put the sheep and wolf in the same cage, listen to the wolf and condemn the sheep. While repentant terrorists are enjoying their lives, have rights, were offered facilities we find that on the opposite side, members of the army are still enduring marginalization and indignation by ignorant people.

عبد الحليم Posted 2009-03-20

The Algerian elections will be, God willing, fair. God willing, the president will be Bouteflika who is considered the father of all Algerians. Those who say that the game is sold, I tell them go, play Zidane and try to win hahaha. Praise be to God, we have peace in our country... *** to the enemies, dogs, cheap who think that the country of a million and half a million was dethroned ***. You can come and see the good in Algeria. I tell them come and see the grace of God from the East to the West. Thank you.

The elections are clear and the president is as clear as the sun. It is the leader Abdelaziz Bouteflika. All candidates are incapable of assuming responsibility or leadership.

لحسن شعالة Posted 2009-03-21

To uncover the truth, warn against fraud and deception, I say firmly that the tribunes of mosques, except a few of them, are governed with the shadow powers. Some support Adahiria call according to an alliance and reflect the propaganda. The competent administration has nothing to do with this division. The only thing it does through this uncovered acting will be shown after the elections.

مساند Posted 2009-03-21

Salam alikum. Since 1999 I have been submitting files to work, but to this day nothing has come out. When you go you find the door closed. We ask God that with this third mandate Bouteflika opens up the doors of companies, because by God they are firm on us, we are tired of humiliation and bureaucracy. Anyway, I am with you, whether people like it or not. (Our slogan is Algeria safe and strong).

محمد الجزائري Posted 2009-03-21

Long live Louisa Hanoune forever because I fell in love with her. I say to Bouteflika, sorry Mr President, but Louisa is nicer.

محمد الجزائري Posted 2009-03-21

Long live Louisa Hanoune because I loved her as she represents the Algerian woman. I wish total failure to Bouteflika and everyone who hates Louisa, sorry Mr president.

boukader Posted 2009-03-21

You must indeed take action during the elections in Algeria. There are thousands of people like Bouteflika. Yes, I am saying that there are millions of people who love Algeria with all their hearts, but they simple have not gotten the opportunity to show it. Algeria will not die when Bouteflika dies; it will always be here and it will never die. You have the opportunity to change things this time. Choose change with Mohamed Said! Time will tell!

ابو عمار Posted 2009-03-22

I strongly boycott the elections, especially when the candidate of the debris Bouteflika is among candidates. He doesn’t deserve to be our president because he is wasting away our moneys. He does not use them properly as he offers them to the lazy, mafia and those who do not deserve them. So how can you call us for the elections (setback). Algeria needs someone to manage it who should be wise, determined, fair, not sectarian who takes the money from the Sahara then distributes it in the north and when he goes to the Sahara he tells them we have no money for you. You have Touisa, it is a honour for you. You supply us with money you have, we use it, but you have no right to it. What is this situation we have reached my brothers? Let the elections to the debris and deluded. As to us, our pride does not allow us to subjugate to this setback (elections and deception).

rachid Posted 2009-03-22

I am for Bouteflika. You know, he is a real president. He is the only one who is doing anything positive for the Algerians across the board. He lived abroad and I am sure that he did not miss anything here, but all the same they asked him to preside over this country. He answered with a yes. So, just between us, this was a sacrifice. We must accept and understand that Bouteflika is a nationalist, not a khobzist who loves to live abroad. On the contrary, he is with us in our good times and bad. I was like most people, criticising my country and my government, but I realised that that I was mistaken. Algeria needs all of its children. Whether you are for or against him, you need to express yourself at the ballot. Even if you vote against him, you need to get one thing in your head Bouteflika that brings happiness or unhappiness to Algerians. You must trust in him. Let us help him in his task, because if I were in his place, I would think it over a thousand times before taking the office of president. Yet, he took it! So, it is up to you to orient Algeria by expressing yourself. We are not birds that take to hiding when they die.

flifla Posted 2009-03-22

Long live Bouteflika! He is the president of all Algerian men and women! He was and is president and he will stay that way all his life.

simpleethonnete Posted 2009-03-22

First of all, our one and only mother is Algeria. Most importantly, God rest Boudiaf’s soul! To keep it simple, none of the candidates in the presidential election offer any guarantees. They are all adventurers, with the exception of Bouteflika, who has his future already behind him!!! He said it and it is true!!! Personally, I would say that so long as the country is in the works with a whole lot of dough to back it and so long as we do not want to slide too far back, let us leave Bouteflika to continue his work. This is something very logical. I believe that he is the only one for us, the last chance for our country, whether we like it or not!!! It is him or putting ourselves in the hands of new predators, eager for power such that the risks would be fatal for all of us!!! A word to the wise!!! –PS: Awaiting Ouyahia!!!

rachid Posted 2009-03-22

You know, it is not easy to be the president of a country like ours because ours is a big country. We have nearly every race here except Asians, and even that is on its way with the Chinese. So, we will have another race. We cannot even count how many dialects there are, and the defects in them that France sowed are spreading. So there is a mix up both in the rears and looking forward. Govern that! So, what I want to say is that our president is the most courageous there is. He did not forget about us. We have all noticed the great change. We need to help him in his tasks and go vote even if it is not for him.

ismail Posted 2009-03-22

Elections are clear, and the president is clear like the sun. He is the leader Abdelaziz Bouteflika. All candidates are incapable of assuming responsibility or leadership as there is no substitute. I support the platform of Mrs Louisa Hanoune but I will vote for the Mujahid and leader Abdelaziz Bouteflika.

Idir Posted 2009-03-23

This is a comment for the 'an Algerian Lady".With all the respect to your comment ,You definetly need to understand the real meaning of democracy.Algeria is no where near achieving democracy .Mr Boutaflika has a high school level and he is incharge of an entire country .He amazingly changed the constitution to remain in power for ever like any other dictator .In domocratic countries debates in parlement are held life on TV and the president is interogated for every single desicion taken .Also The military has not power except in a war time . The Algerian TV is controlled to deliver a message the govenoment wants .I never heard the algerian The TV critising the president .and as soon as the journalist goes far in allegations he desapears (Algeria has the fourth highest jounalist killing in the world) There are plenty of sites to read about democracy ,once you ahve done so, then you can see if these points are applied is our country . Regards

kaderbed Posted 2009-03-23

Bouteflika will be elected president with 69% of the vote. The game is rigged!

يحيى Posted 2009-03-23

Presidential elections in Algeria is like someone who eats a sandwich especially for Algerians because everything was pre-settled and planned scrupulously before addressing the oppressed and weak people to announce April 9 as the day of falsified papers.

homme libre Posted 2009-03-23

Election Campaign - On day five of the so-called “election campaign”, things are becoming clearer. We have seen both those who support and those who work for Bouteflika’s people. Here, we know them quite well: they are themselves quite rich and they want to protect their interests. There are also those who say, “This is the turn of the century, so do your jobs, sirs!” The state’s means have completely been put in favour of our president as candidate. It is not this person that poses the problem, though, but the entire dangerous, mafia system surrounding him. Ladies and gentlemen, I invite you to democratically vote for the candidate known as “boycott”! I will thank you for this because it is a way to love your country and to also exist.

المهدي الصحراوي Posted 2009-03-23

Honestly, there is no hope in candidates except Bouteflika because all active and influential powers are with him. This excludes fair competition.

benzou Posted 2009-03-23

I do not understand who you want to be president. Do you know the other candidates? I never heard them speak? So, it is best to vote for someone you know than those who you do not know.

May God protect you and preserve you for us Bouteflika.

The elections are not settled. It is just the weak weight of the rivals which settled everything. We are with our president Bouteflika. Long live Algeria free and independent.

MAIZAT Posted 2009-03-24

I think that every Algerian loves his mother(land), loves her welfare, life, tranquillity, is proud of her and lift her flag against its enemies. Now she needs us to value her to the last moments of our lives. We will prove it that we are capable of that with all our powers. We are with you compassionate mother Algeria. Welcome to your presidents who suits you and in favour of the interest of your sons. Long live Algeria. Triumph and victory to our faithful martyrs.

قائل كلمة حق Posted 2009-03-24

In the period before Bouteflika, our Arabism was stumbled over even if the Algerian constitution says that Arabic is our language. But when we hear Bouteflika speaking, we don’t feel that he is addressing us as Algerians because he speaks in French as if he is a French president who comes visit Algeria. By God, this is a shame when we see all presidents of states speaking the language of their people. May God rest your soul Boumedien, could any minister speak in French then? By God, if he had spoken in French in the era of Boumedien, he would have executed him.

ikram Posted 2009-03-24

I am not voting for these people, these thieves of Algeria in the service of foreigners. They have destroyed Algeria in the name of a fight against terrorism, but who are the real terrorists? Is this not the illegitimate regime of Bouteflika!?

youcef Posted 2009-03-24

Elections in Arab countries... Hmmm, they are just theatrics.

Kari-med Posted 2009-03-24

I am asking all Algerian men and women to vote for Bouteflika because we need him, especially during this economic crisis. Without Bouteflika, Algeria will fall into a pit dug by the vampires. Thank you to all the Algerian men and women.

أستاذ Posted 2009-03-24

What has driven the ruling authority in this country to change the constitution if it weren’t sure that the same president will rule. Now it is trying with all its powers to… make them elections even through planned falsification in mobile polls, special polls and university polls.

Mr Abdelaziz Bouteflika is a man and will remain the first man in Algeria whether you want it or not. Long live Algeria.

God willing, a third mandate for Abdelaziz Bouteflika. He drove Algeria to its highest summit. He is still building and developing. As historians say about him, he is a great diplomat which made Algeria lead dialogs with major countries in the world. Long live Algeria.

Peace and mercy of God be upon you. We must accept the reality. According to data, Mr Bouteflika is qualified to the post of president of the republic because he knows all the secrets of the regime. To complete the way, we must vote for the sitting President Abdelaziz Bouteflika. Long live Algeria. May God bring the welfare of our country.

أبو الخنساء Posted 2009-03-25

Choosing continuation as a slogan to the campaign of Bouteflika means continuation in deterioration, sport failure, rebellion, absence of security in the country, closing borders between brothers, hegemony of the military and failure of democracy because the amendment of the constitution according to whims is not a democratic change. Continuation of this method will lead dear Algeria to the rank of weak countries deprived of cultural, security, social, religious and moral freedoms. So where are the men of changes? I see that voting for the woman Louisa Hanoune could lead to real change in this dear country.

lhadj Posted 2009-03-25

Peace, mercy and blessings of God be upon you. I thought that since president Bouteflika belongs to the family of revolution, he would boost highly Algeria as did our predecessors. But I was disappointed. He is an opportunist. All Arabs idolise the throne, they love control. But there is something inside me which tells me that Algeria will not fall. I am not with Bouteflika and I am not with anyone else. I am with Algeria. By God, my wish is to see the country as the best country in the world as it is the country of a million and half a million martyrs. Algeria is the country of miracles but the situation of most of its people reaches the bottom. God suffices me and He is the best protector.

kokithop Posted 2009-03-25

President Abdelaziz Bouteflika is the greatest president who ruled the country after the late president Boumediene. I hope that victory will go to the right person to lead our great country. Good luck everyone.

عبدا لرحمان Posted 2009-03-25

God doesn’t change the situation of people until they change what is inside them. I ask a question to candidates: do they know the meaning of starvation or poverty? Have they experienced it one day? They know people on the day of elections.

اسماعيل غ Posted 2009-03-25

The positive reaction of the Algerian people by celebrating the president of the republic during his visits to the provinces throughout the country is a clear and express reply to the callers of boycott. They are delusive as they believe they can affect the arising determination of the sons of the country in forgetting the era of deterioration, self-torture and contribution to realising the dream of martyrs by liberating Algeria. We say to these people and their agents inside, we know your real size. Democracy requires that you accept the results of the elections. Our reply will be a new blow to you. So wake up political losers, the time of truth has come.

خليفة Posted 2009-03-25

In the name of God the most gracious the most merciful. Everyone must know that there is no democracy in Algeria. Before launching the electoral campaign, the first candidate, who will certainly win the elections, announces a general and unconditional pardon for his brothers who plunder public monies “who took loans in the name of agriculture, bought with them cars and houses” without consulting with the people or its representatives as though the money belong to his mother. Then he announces a pay raise as though he is offering alimonies in order to receive votes. I am one of the Algerian young people who live under the burden of poverty and unemployment while Mr Abdelaziz is sharing out the money of the people and he will certainly be elected. So congratulations to the robbers and woe to the poor.

أبو البنات Posted 2009-03-25

No two people will disagree that the Algerian elections are a mere referendum, no more and no less. So congratulations to Boutef in advance.

Salam alikum. My dear Sirs, I sincerely think that those who don’t have a quality can never give it. Those who talk about a nation they don’t know, cannot feel or sense the flavour of the nation. Nationalism is not a decoration we get from someone. It is a feeling we enjoy, we who have been irrigated with the tears of mothers who lost their son after enduring the fire of killing and policy of burnt land applied to the Algerian people in a first attempt of extermination by the French coloniser and the second by hidden hands which exploited the sons of the nation. However, the good tidings of the morning have appeared. The man, who didn’t spare an effort in lifting the flag of Algeria high, has emerged. He managed at a time when the entire Algeria was in a meeting with death to spread peace, pardon and forgiveness. The Algerian people welcomed him with much love and respect. Why not and he is the dear one? Years of pride were restored to Algerians who loved the man like a father of all Algerians. In all the parts of the nation, his image is invading the hearts. So how can this man who restored stability to Algerians the best president and leader? In spite of everything said, the caravan keeps its movement while dogs never stop barking. You will see the proof in what was said. Salam. Karima R.

abdellah zoullah Posted 2009-03-25

For the second time we elect the right president in the right place. He is Mr Abdelaziz Boutefilka. Without electing him, he is certainly the president. We hope that he will continue serving the nation, developing it, consider unemployed young people because he is the leader and every leader is responsible for his subjects.

Igniting a candle is better than denouncing darkness. Let people decide their fate. To say the truth, bless you Bouteflika. We are quite happy with relative welfare that we live today regardless of the poverty in which some people live. Can the poor not live in Algeria? Yes. Hasn't our country found its right position among countries? Aren't we proud that our president prays to God? If your cover is small my brother gather your limbs so that it suits you.

bacha mohamed Posted 2009-03-26

Mr President- There is no doubt about your re-election. So that this event becomes a true benchmark for Algeria’s history forever, I suggest that you proclaim a general pardon and stop all court proceedings currently underway. Why? Firstly, we have too many innocent people in prison. Secondly, we have to many criminals who have been exonerated. Thirdly, we have too many people who have made mistakes because of very serious dysfunction at the state level. Fourthly, we have too many prisons that do not meet norms guaranteeing a minimum of dignity and therefore are diametrically opposed to the great vision you have of an Algeria for which you sacrificed your youth. Lastly, we have a legal system comprised of poorly educated judges.

We should blame governors and presidents of municipalities who did not carry out their jobs properly. You will win, God willing, good president because other candidates have no level, no experience. They cannot even do the simplest thing properly: speak fluently. May God assist you Bouteflika. Long live Algeria.

The thing which spoilt (the opposite of embellished) democracy in Algeria is the project of the third mandate through which Bouteflika and his gang deceived the Algerians. Don’t you see that opportunist dogs barked behind him? But the odd thing is that Bouteflika will remain in power with his problems. This is a form of driving Algeria to the cursed Egyptian model.

The best and greatest projects have been Bouteflika’s. He is a great man. He has done the undoable. He already built what could not be built. He has been a strong man ever since our independence. You will never find and have never seen another man as strong as Bouteflika. Long live Bouteflika! I am a fan of Bouteflika!

boukhiar Posted 2009-03-27

I do not believe that we Algerians will have the ability to have another chance to have a president of Bouteflika’s calibre. If, given the comments I read and what he has done for our country, our great president is criticised as such, then it is because Algerians suffer unparalleled hypocrisy. As the proverb goes: “Criticism is easy; art is difficult.”

عبد الحق Posted 2009-03-27

The most important thing is that Algeris is a sovereign state which has dignity and pride regardless of its representative. The Algerian people exercise democracy, parliamentary democracy.

عمر Posted 2009-03-27

Where is Algeria heading to? With the arrival of Bouteflika, goals are no longer clear, the future of the country is in danger because the people are marginalised and have no role in decision-making, and control of the institutions. Bouteflika dwarfed the state to his person, he made the institutions and councils empty of their contents and powers. He made of parties a democratic decoration and of their leaders rabbits for his races in which the results are known. If only he were the real decision-maker in Algeria, he is just an agent and manufacture of America and France surrounded by a gang of agent opportunists who implement an American Zionist agenda which impedes any progress in Algeria. The proof is the financial boom in Algeria after the increase in the prices of oil. Where have its revenues gone? Why are they not introduced in investment projects to emply young people and meet the needs of citizens, reduce imports which transformed Algeria into a huge consumer market, destroyed the industrial and agricultural basis of the country.

sisaidi19 Posted 2009-03-27

If you have the courage, then speak up. I give my congratulations to all the candidates, especially Bouteflika. He has done well, but there remain a lot of problems. For example, there is the housing problem and the problem of single men and women. This is a big taboo and not a single candidate has been able to breach the subject. The taboo of single men and women represents 3 million people. Where is the housing and work for them? Personally, I am a 39-year-old teacher. I am single because of my housing problem. I asked for an F5, F4, F3, F2 and even an F0.5 apartment. I am a teacher and every day I ask my students if they love Algeria. It is not easy my friends. Algeria in spite of everything!

عثمان Posted 2009-03-27

Is Algeria unable to give birth to a brother of the late Houari Boumediene? Oh my country, what do you want us to bring so that you give birth to a man who leads the country after the departure of the divider of subsistence and the king who wants to transform the country into a kingdom? But honestly, there is no substitute my Algerian brothers. Who to lead the country? Who has the expertise? But we young Saidis will not vote for obliterating Saida from your memory, as you don't care about it and it will produce the next president of Algerians... Thank you.

alilou Posted 2009-03-27

In my opinion, Bouteflika could have left through the front door, ending his two terms as a gentleman. He could have guaranteed a true democracy’s transfer of power. Unfortunately, I am deeply disappointed because everything he has done – and I understand this now – was not done in the spirit of patriotism or out of the love of the country; it is simply in the spirit of vengeance, of favoritism for a very specific, vicious milieu, which persists in the government it has been clinging tight to for such a long time. I am a simple citizen who has great love for his country.

Lagmus MAROC Posted 2009-03-27

There is no democracy, no communism and nothing. “and whoever did not judge by what Allah revealed, those are they that are the unjust”. Don't lie to us and say important. We know who is our enemy. We know who is with us and who is against us. The country is still the same. The people of berets still hate the bearded people...The future is in the young people??? If they become old from the concerns of this country.

The electoral process has lost its meaning as a means of peaceful democracy in Algeria, like all other Arab countries. The results of the presidential elections are settled in advance in favour of the candidate of the shadow government Mr Abdelaziz Bouteflika. To those who applaud “every standing wall”, hurry up humbly to every electoral station, we say history will curse you because you are the stick which hinders the effective renaissance of Algeria of a million and half a million martyrs to wider spaces of democracy which is the main factor in establishing a strong state which will put the country on the rails of real civilizational construction and liberate if from a regime which has lasted for nearly half a decade but brought to the country only backwardness, crises and miseries...Stop bargaining with nationalism you are hiding behind, appallingly, to achieve illegitimate goals on the detriment of the right of the nation to construction and progress. Concerning those who say that there is no one better than Bouteflika, this is a natural product of the practices of a regime which closed all doors in the face of competent people and marginalized them. So has Algeria really become barren from giving birth to someone who will lead it other than those who rely on a revolutionary legitimacy which lost the justifications to monopolize the rule? But...my country although unfair is dear to me, its people although suspicious of me are bountiful. We love Algeria. We love Algeria. We love Algeria far from illegitimate interests and achievements. We love Algeria. We love Algeria. We love Algeria as much as we hate those who work on turning it into a private property through chauvinist bargaining of nationalism and supreme interest of the nation... History and coming generations will curse you for the backwardness you caused to the country of a million and half a million martyrs.

In 1997, I was participating in Rahma (mercy) law. During the communications, I surprised the messenger by saying: I don't see a continuity for the president in rule, this law will be impeded. But he didn't take care of that. When the events happened, he thought that I new the future. So he insisted on me to know more future events. Time passed, I met him randomly in Saudi Arabia in 1999, I told him about what will happen to heads of Arab regimes including direct prosecution to execution. In 2004, before the elections, I told one of the governors about the result of this choice to calm down after he was confused. Today I say from my feeling and analysis of the events, not an allegation of knowing the future, that the wave of these voices call for high carefulness more than hailing because the hearts and consciences are corrupt. It is also difficult to distinguish between the friend, enemy, reality and fancy now that acting has become the culture of everyone.

مواطن بشار Posted 2009-03-28

In the name of God the most gracious the most merciful. Why all this exaggeration and ingratitude? Algeria is well. I know anyone better in the five knights but Bouteflika. On the other hand, I reply to Mr Lahcen Bouchala who argued that he found no one to receive him in the district of El Kenadssa and that he ordered Imams to speak in the loudspeakers of mosques to gather the people. God bless you, God bless you Mr Hassan. But you mourn your dismissal from the post of the director of religious affairs. The chair is not eternal. This the retribution for your acts, have you forgotten them or I will remind you? The ghost of the court is chasing you. Oh Lord, we don't want to deride you Mr Lahcen.

AMARI Posted 2009-03-29

Personally, I would really like to see the young people come to power. In the current situation, however, the elephants would make a single bite out of the youth. The best we can do is to accept Bouteflika as president. He is the best by far in terms of foreign relations, but his domestic policies leave something to be desired. I do not know if this is a merry-go-round and he has not managed to grab hold or if he is biding his time until the Algerian people rise up to categorically change the policies his entourage has imposed upon them. I know quite well that Bouteflika is aware of all of this, but if he steps in, then it will be a massacre worse than that of the terrorists, you understand. We Algerians love our Algeria, but we are selfish. We have become materialists. We want everything all at once. We are not patient.

diden (Alger) Posted 2009-03-29

With regards to Algeria’s 2009 presidential elections, I think that all of the candidates are wasting an enormous amount of time and very large amount of money during this campaign. And this goes most especially for the five candidates running against the current president, who, in my opinion, cannot be dethroned by anyone in Algeria. Also, frankly speaking, he is the man we need to lead our country, which was bordering on civil war in the last decade. So, we Algerians need to continue trusting in Mr Abdelaziz Bouteflika. He has given Algeria a good image abroad. He has also brought security to the Algerians in the face of terrorism, which he continues to fight with such great brutality and delicacy. In any case, long live Algeria and long live Mr Bouteflika!

محمدي حبيب Posted 2009-03-29

On April 9, the presidential elections will be held. But I know from today that the candidate Abdelaziz Bouteflika will win. Before previous elections, president Abdelaziz Bouteflika said that he will do achievements in the country and will organize the country. But we haven't seen anything of these achievements until the elections get closer so that the people say he made achievements and vote for him for a third mandate.

اسلام Posted 2009-03-30

Salam alikum. I am personally with Mr Bouteflika. Have you forgotten the years of darkness? Without him, you would have been among the dead and lost. He restored hope in life and dream of the future. Be confident and vote for him with yes.

mustapha Posted 2009-03-30

How can he not win and he has sworn in the Holy Qur'an to preserve the constitution and abide by its rules? But he was the first to amend the constitution for his personal interest. Isn't this a shame on him? President for ten years but he changed nothing, no achievements and nothing. Shame on you Bouteflika. What will be your reply to your God the Almighty about your hypocrisy and your negligence of responsibility? You don't even deserve to be the president of a municipality.

farouk Posted 2009-03-30

In the name of God. Peace and prayer be upon the messenger of God. My brothers, the issue of the Sahara is the issue of everyone. It is not just the issue of the president alone. We are all accountable before God for the situation in the country. We all know that no one does his mission properly, neither the teacher nor the trader or Imam. Everyone. Or an issue of interests. Therefore, we can only blame ourselves. We learned greediness and our nature is corrupted. Therefore, we must review ourselves before criticizing the president or the state. The day we restore control of our families, our sons, can say courageously to the oppressor you’re unjust, return to the right path and hold on to the instructions of God, then we can talk about the state.

lasgaa Posted 2009-03-30

Thank God that we have the luck of having men who are right there at the perfect time such as our president, whose responsibilities are so heavy as he plays the role of our unifier. Each one of us will have the opportunity on 9 April 2009 to express ourselves, so have some respect for these men who brought us our strong moment such as Arabs speaking at the UN. This is a group effort in which our president participated, and his sacrifices mark a historic moment. Moreover, to speak of a positive point, our diplomacy, a field in which our president is super gifted. Let us rejoice in this. As the people, our role is to choose between the candidates and VOTE for the best. This, in my opinion, is Mr Abdelaziz Bouteflika. After a deep study into psychological profiles of each of the candidates, he is the one who could find solutions to solutions for these sociopaths. Be honest, he has given us so much. As an Algerian citizen, I am voting for Bouteflika with pride. Let us please stop misleading people, because he is STRONG, STRONG, STRONG! He has good sense. I take a nighttime stroll as a free man in my country. Let us be very happy to have been able to come to such a point in our democracy, which is so advanced compared to our neighbours. In spite of everything, long live the free Algeria! Stay strong Abdelkader El Mali

mouloud Posted 2009-03-30

I am no voting so long as this president has done everything possible to stay in power. Why did he change the constitution??? We are tired of his greatness! Leave room for someone else. Two terms is too much. If you love Algeria, then you need to provide and example for others. Now, after you, there will be another president for life, and you call this democracy. Long live Islam! Long live the European model!

It is true that there are many abuses but it is still the only Arab country which crticises its president and all officials in the Algerian street by adults and young people. It is only babies who don't talk about it. So beware of talking about things you don't know. Salam alikum.

It is not unusual at all that Bouteflika is going to come out of this election as the winner - we are not a democratic country; we are in a dictatorial country and the dictator, Bouteflika, presides over it. The herd that supports him is just looking for money. The other candidates well know that he will be the winner, but they have nothing to lose. They are going to work right on up until the day of this masquerade of an election in order to get some money – that is all. Dictator Bouteflika is doing his electoral campaign with the people’s money, yet today he goes and says that there will be an increase in student grants! I am a student, and we have been demanding this increase for a long time. We held strikes and marches in vain. Now, so that we vote, he did it. He is a sorcerer. Seriously, Bouteflika is an Algerian imposter.

شعيب تسالة Posted 2009-03-31

Much talk is useless. It is clear there is no successor to him. He has restored the country to the path. He took it out of the crisis and made all countries fear it, or am I mistaken? Moreover, Bouteflika is known for his manliness and he is loved by all the people. Now he is a sheikh. What will make him disappoint the country, he will win. His only concern is to lift Algeria. As he said, raise your head and walk in your country. Oh wake up, we are in 2009. It is Algeria which is lifting all Arabs.

Congratulations faithful citizen to his country Algeria. Why should you be concerned about the future? Algeria has heroes who were recorded by history. It is a country which attracts foreign and young investors who are estimated by politicians at thousands; a veteran leader who knows his role in change; rivals who are concerned about the interests of the country and the people. As I belong to the generation of a single party, I only see the steps of the unique party. There is nothing wrong with that since every candidate aspires to change. My vote is for the leader. My voice is with “no to terrorism, mercy law, entire pardon, national reconciliation”. I will vote for Mr Abdelaziz Bouteflika. I acknowledge my admiration to the militancy of Algerian woman, the respectable lady “Louisa Hanoune”. April 09, 2009 is a move towards knowing the illness and the cure.

The people calling for a boycott are have an effect on the interests of Algerians and their freedom of expression. There is no basis for their words. Before talking about this, I invite you to first of all go see how things are run in the polling stations. There are observers from each of the candidates and any citizen has the right to observe. The ballot boxes are sealed, checked in the morning and then after in the evening in front of everyone, and at the end the station manager signs an attestation to the proper conduct of the voting procedures.

We don’t forget how president Bouteflika assisted the brotherly Palestinian nation… I nominate president Abdelaziz Bouteflika for a third and fourth mandate, God willing. May God grant us long life.

It has faced the problem alone. No airline companies used to land there, there were no international relations with Algeria!!! After this man (Mr Bouteflika), may God grant him long life, took over, we have received some security and stability, praise be to God. Algeria has restored its position among states. As citizens, we never forget what Mr Bouteflika did for our Algeria. “Algeria of pride and dignity”. May God protect our dear president, our beloved father, Mr Bouteflika, may God grant him long life.

“An Open Letter to the Algerian President” Mr. President, I have the honour and great joy of very respectfully addressing this letter to you on my behalf and on behalf of all the people of the Arab Maghreb. Mr. President, I come to ask that you accept my request to open the great door of our history with one single gesture of your excellence. This will be a gesture that will make you a giant in the eyes of everyone. Dear Mr. President, I ask you to support the Moroccan proposal and our promising project for the autonomy of our southern provinces and to stop your support for the separatists who are only bloodthirsty men and want neither peace nor dialogue. They only want the sounding of arms; they want at all costs to take to war again. They constantly torture the Moroccans quarantined at Tindouf without the slightest respect for the human rights. These bloodthirsty men are egged on by the Algerian secret services, drug lords and arms traffickers. These are men who sell the suffering of others at huge prices and send the profits to their Swiss bank accounts. Mr. President, these parasites were created for one purpose: to prevent the United Arab Maghreb and weaken the region. They are unscrupulous men. They are against our religion, Islam. They are traffickers of arms and munitions. They live off the food given as humanitarian aid destined for our brothers imprisoned in Tindouf, against all humanitarian law and all religions. Mr. President, your support for our project of autonomy is a path that will lead to the unification of the Arab Maghreb, making our countries strong and capable of overcoming all difficulties and solving all the problems of people of the Arab Maghreb. Mr President, you have the best position in order to know and understand what brings problems to this union and what resolves them. Mr President, a single gesture on your part would bring this union into existence and would make you a giant in the eyes of all the people of the Maghreb. You would be opening wide the door of history. Mr President, I am counting on your wisdom. – Respectfully yours, Acharif Moulay Abdellah Bouskraoui

The decisive moment has come and the big democratic ceremony celebrated by Algeria these days. Everyone must just know that other peoples are struggling just to get the right to vote. Others struggle to get the right to choose their representatives in council. But we will in a few days choose for the fourth time the first judge. My brothers and sons of my country must stand and contemplate this historical moment which is added to our history and the greatness of Algerians. Let the elections be a station for safety, security, renewing the spirit of love and brotherhood among all currents and different races so that we will not give an opportunity to any envier or revengeful because we didn’t give them our votes in previous elections. Everything must be up to the level of the sacrifices of the sons of Algeria with respects to everyone. Long live Algeria.

I am a student in the secondary school, second year. I don't vote yet but this is my opinion. Finally, I say Algeria is a strong and safe country. It will become one of the strongest countries in the world. I hope to become president in future.

They must go to ballot stations on Thursday 09/04/2009 to cast their votes for Algeria even if you don't support any of the candidates, I advise you to put an empty envelope. You just have to cast your vote. This is the mentality which differentiates the west from us in their thought. We shouldn't insult the Algerian politics or people. It is God who will judge them.

Elections are a right, right, right??? I renounce this right since I will not get my right to oil, my right to work, my right to marriage, my right to live in an environment free of bribery, hypocrisy and lies. By the way, these are the qualities of entrepreneurs. Considering the sponsors of the campaign of Bouteflika, they are these corrupt entrepreneurs. This reflects the support of corruption to Bouteflika as a candidate. This imposes on Bouteflika the president to support this corruption.

sahnoun Posted 2009-04-03

There is no solution in Algeria until it develops into the birth of a real democracy. His Excellency the president Bouteflika has instituted the reconciliation in fear of an international trial for the dirty war and the perpetrators not for the people. On the economic level, it is a catastrophe. There is an absence of the economy. The economy is totally paralyzed. So where are his prerogatives or others? Algeria is like a plane driven by a pilot who is simulated because it is the robot which drives warning him when he gets overboard not to touch anything and let the camel go as it is ordered to the unknown. Finally, I say my dim-sighted homeland, Heaven protects you; when the ruler blackens the eyes, expect blindness.

In the name of God the most gracious the most merciful. A third mandate for the loser in two mandates. This is what he said with his tongue. Despite this we found that he has supporters. Why this attack against the Islamic candidate Jahid Younsi at a time when everyone who pretends to be in the religious advocacy scene to work for the success of the Islamic project, to offer help to his brother or at least to say a word of piety. We found today Muslims cajoling all currents except the Islamic current. We can only say God suffices us and He is the best protector.

I personally ask every Arab person to carry out his responsibilities towards his family and nation in the best way by choosing the right man to assume the responsibility of this country. I also don't see any objection that our respectable president Abdelaziz Bouteflika leads our country all his long life, God willing. During his mandate, we have all known the meaning of freedom, the meaning of man, the meaning of security and power. Our conditions are better than Tunisia with the constitution of the oppressive woman, Libya with its injustice and oppression, Morocco with the drugs law and Egypt with **** to foreigners...Each one has a shame. So stop silly comments. We have become the people of Zero. If I could, I would vote for Bouteflika 100000000000000 times.

I will tell you my opinion honestly about the six candidates. First of all Touati, he acts but doesn't know what he is doing. He doesn't deserve to lead Algeria. Jahid deserves to be in a rank lower than presidency because he doesn't understand it. Faouzi Rebaine is outside the coverage area. He must find a solution for himself before he finds a solution to Algerians. Louisa Hanoune is a real militant but the messenger of God, peace and prayer be upon him, said “God curses a people led by a woman”. We haven't come to know better than the book of God and His messenger. As to Mohamed Oussaid, he is a simple man but I like him, I appreciate him but he doesn't deserve to be president. Finally, Abdelaziz Bouteflika, you deserve most to lead the country and people. So go ahead, may God assist you and help you.

Let the Algerian master people choose their rulers. Don't interfere with the election process. Let power to its people. The population has become, along the years, fed up with you. They are fed up with starvation, killing, torture and of having no clothes. Algeria is rich by its young people and all its human resources. Let all these powers say what they have to say. They are the masters and they alone should make the decision.

Concerning the favourite for the presidency of the republic, there is no one which deserves it more who is the most suitable and best qualified for this post than Bouteflika. He is a man really capable of assuming this responsibility. God knows what I say. His achievements are clear like the sun. There is a wide difference between Algeria before 1999 and today in 2009. Praise be to God.

In spite of us knowing that he is going to win the election ahead of time, it is his duty to stay with us and finish the work he already stared. Personally, I see no one else besides those who would look to fill their pockets and leave our dear country under construction. Long live Bouteflika! Long live Algeria! May God protect it for all of us! May it always be the best! Those who speak ill of Algeria do not deserve to be in Algeria! In spite of everything, it is our country!

You still believe in the existence of the Ghoul (monster). Where is democracy in the Arab world? They are all the same. The regime is the ugliest individual created on earth. We will never make any progress. Don't be optimistic as long as we are silent to falsification and exploitation of the resources of the country from inside and outside. Boycott is the only solution.

Algeria needs a firm president who fears God.

محمود Posted 2009-04-07

In Algeria, the mandate of the president is over no matter how long it takes. Behind him there are ten presidents waiting, in the queue.

منال Posted 2009-04-07

Algerian people are a free people. If you want to vote, do it or keep quiet. If you don't want break your head in the wall. Bouteflika will take it in spite of you and me.

zarathoustra Posted 2009-04-07

In my humble opinion, I think that the Algerian presidential elections are not rigged in favour of Mr Bouteflika since he is the only one there is; rather, the entire political system is rigged. It is based on nepotism and clientelism, which persist in spite of all roadblocks! Personally, I think that the Algerian regime has harder skin than that of the Baath regime and of the former Iraqi dictator. Ours is a Machiavellian regime, sneaky and smart!!! And I also think that freedom, true democracy and the peaceful alternation of power are to be earned! We do not deserve these “privileges”. There a many happy idiots in Algeria and the intellectual elite have take off abroad such that here is a complete lack of emulation, learning and reflection! In short, for our crazy people, Mr Bouteflika is the president. It is both unexpected and fortunate that he actually wants to govern us well! Long live Algeria! Long live Bouteflika!

جزائري الغد Posted 2009-04-08

Algerian elections are another masquerade and play added to previous plays. They are elections in which the element of surprise is absent. The results are decided in favor of the candidate to the presidency since the amendment of the constitution. The simplest way that can be used by the Algerian to stop this masquerade is to boycott. Its the weakest thing he can do. All candidates agree they have no chances. But their aim to participate for the sake of participating as some say. Those who say that the candidate...will not win by an overwhelming majority in the first run, ignore the plays of poor Algeria.

Long live Algeria safe and independent. Long live the leader Abdelaziz Bouteflika. I say that those who cast doubt about the existence of democracy in Algeria are liars, hypocrites and non national. I say that since the public servant takes bribery, official robs and the worker does his work fraudulently, it is impossible to make progress. We cannot charge president Abdelaziz Bouteflika with false accusations. Long live the president. May God protect you Abdelaziz Bouteflika.

زهير Posted 2009-04-08

We citizens and young people of Algeria don't believe in the elections or its representatives. Bouteflika is Pharaoh who was sent to the Algerian people to make them taste the worst torture, he kills their sons and spares their women.

مجهول Posted 2009-04-08

It is very nice that a person enjoys his political rights and be involved in the politics of his country. This is approved by every republican democratic regime. But it is clear that our politicians don't understand well the criteria of this regime. The president designs a suit of the regime which fits him. There is overnight an amendment of an article in the constitution; another one is deleted. It is as if he is playing chess!! How do you want these poor people to express their opinion in your elections? You are the decision-makers. Appoint whomever you want this candidate or the other. The seat should not remain vacant. The only side who benefits of course is you who wear smart suits, luxury cars, big villas and swollen throats. Does any one among you know the price of potatoes today or the price of tomatoes? Of course you don't. This is because you eat from the budget of the state and from the money of the poor people. What can we say? Algeria was liberated from tyrannical hands and became in more tyrannical hands. God doesn't change the inflictions of people until they change what is inside them. God is the assistant.

You aren't an angel. You will not be the best of all the people. But among those who ruled Algeria after the independence, you were the best. You have brought safety after fear. You have reimbursed all foreign debts. Praise be to God, you did this before the international financial crisis swept us. You have changed the vision of the world to Algeria after the black decade. By God, you passive critics, what would someone else of those you hail have done? Long live Algeria. Long live president Abdelaziz Bouteflika. Down with the traitors and sellers who fish in troubled waters. Go ahead, residents of the Sahara know your good intentions, Abdlkader Mali.

بلادهم Posted 2009-04-09

Here we truly understand that the people of Algeria are ignorant. The problem is not who will be the president or in Bouteflika himself. The problem is in the people. The revolution poet Moufdi Zakaria said: Algeria oh land of miracles. But the biggest miracle here is the people who sleep with an opinion and wake up with another. Why? We have seen some who one of the fiercest opposers with his tongue. They have not spared an opportunity in a café or Hammam to pour the greatest candidate with insults. This is the least thing. After days, his municipality announced the distribution of Cesar shops to handicapped unemployed young people and university graduates to include his name with them. What a miracle. He woke up at the praises and thanks to the Cesar of the nation, long live the president...president. Some were praising His Excellency calling in councils to venerate and honour the Cesar. But a few days later and without belt, he fell in the security barrier. He is deprived of documents. What a state and what an evil president. Where is the opinion and where is the people??? The university graduate bathes in the ponds of unemployment for a period exceeding the period of his studies...During all this period of relaxation he insults the president and followers of the followers of the president. He doesn't miss an opportunity in his prayers to pray in his prostration for the regime of Cesar to be reversed...In a few days, job opportunities will be announced withing the pre-illusion contracts so that the concerned person will be one of the trapped. God is the greatest for Algeria. May God assist Cesar. We have seen in our childhood another miracle. In the state shops or the farmer's market, a rumour is circulated saying that the prices of pasta will soon rise highly. Then you see the great people in its long queues collecting what was manufactured in the state plants to transform their stores to his house expecting a Somalia in the land of a million in fear of a starvation, starvation of stomachs. Now the same thing is repeated. Just a few days before the wedding of Cesar, a potatoes crisis. The people are concerned. The future is unclear. He cannot risk his stomach. He cannot vote for anyone else but Cesar because he will conclude after his wedding the stomach reconciliation between the citizen and potatoes. So everybody is invited to the wedding of Cesar with our mother Algeria.

When they speak of democracy in Algeria, it seems that I am listening to a nice story or rather a good joke. The government wants to tell us that there is no need to think because we can sleep in complete peace as long as Bouteflika is around. This dirty fox and his clan of mafiosi and profession thieves are crashing upon Algeria. This sad country has just lived through a disastrous day. We live in complete despair in Algeria. As Hakim Laalam said, I smoke my grass just to stay awake, but the nightmare continues.

ع القادر Posted 2009-04-09

A person can make mistakes because no matter what happens he is a human being. Since Bouteflika is a human being, he was right in many things domestically. Many of us know that in the past we were banned from travelling, affiliation and even talking about politics. Could anyone of us trust his neighbour or even his family members? But here we are today travelling everywhere we want at anytime we want. We criticize and even insult in politics. Concerning the economic side, we all remember how job posts used to be divided and how they are today. Many of us still remember how much was the salary of a public servant and how much it is now? Were we able to buy a car? Go to the streets and enjoy the beauty of cars. Believe it or not, they are owned by simple public servants. Are houses the same as they were before? Compare yesterday and today. Shantytowns turned into high buildings and gardens pleasing the viewers. Water we used to drink, how was its colour and taste? Drink it today and compare it. Compare the roads how they were and they are. Why do we forget all this? Is this gratefulness? When Bouteflika increased the wage of MPs, does this salary concern persons or functions? Today it is them and tomorrow the critic himself could be sitting on that chair. Will he promulgate a law to annul them? Of course not because he will be one of the benefactors. Bouteflika has issued decisions which concern Algeria not some figures in particular. We are Muslims and we know that everything that happens to us is predestined. God dignify those He choose and humiliate those He choose.

فيصل Posted 2009-04-09

I have nothing and I won't vote. Your vote is useless. How come there was just one candidate and overnight it seems that there are other candidates. I expect 99% for Bouteflika.

In view of the losses incurred as a result of electoral campaigns and their preparations, we call for the institution of a monarchical regime in Algeria for two reasons. 1- Because the results of the elections are clear to us even before the elections. 2- So that the Algerian people will be spared the discourses and acts of candidates. I hope that you will contribute to disseminating this report. Your brother Fateh Ikhlef.

محمد Posted 2009-04-10

I think these elections are just a fabricated game to convince public opinion especially the international that there are fair elections in Algeria. In fact, the first ruler in Algeria is general Taoufik and his followers. It was them who brought Bouteflika in 1999. As long as Bouteflika is still serving their interests, they will appoint him president of the state and they have the authority. It noticed that polling stations were almost empty. It is sure that the real voter turnout did not exceed 20%. They have falsified it to become 70% by making pressure on members of the army and security, through other suspicious ways. Therefore, we notice some disturbance acts in provinces such as El Bouira, Djelfa...

مسعودي خبيب(ابن الاوراس) Posted 2009-04-10

In the name of God the most gracious the most merciful. Salam alikum Your Excellency president Abdelaziz Bouteflika. On the day you decided to amend the constitution in the timing which suits you, you decided to pass it through parliament, this coincided with the increase in the salaries of MPs, ministers, diplomats and you didn't spare yourself as well. This move you did is considered a shame and disgrace for the legislative and executive institutions. Isn't this a bribery? Are these institutions reliable? (They amended the constitution in your favour and in favour of woman). Why do you ask your parliamentarian servants to vote for a third mandate? Why this hypocrisy? Are politics for you hypocrisy? Why do you waste the funds of the oppressed people? Don't you fear God the Almighty? To oppress myself is very different from oppressing 34 million people? How great is the legacy... One observation: The Algerian people are free and die for a free one. If you are naked, God will dress you. Don't play openly? It is clear Mr the president. You did it, did it but in the end you spoiled it. Those who say you didn't work are hypocrites and spiteful. May God reward you. I pray for you from my heart, may God forgive us and you. Sir, to continue, if you cover the earth with gold for me but hurt my dignity, it is as though you did nothing. What's this family law? Is it derived from our Islamic religion or their Christian misguidance? A man who is concerned about his nation and honour. With my respects to my master and commander his Excellency the president of the republic. Habib son of Aouras.

I am an Algerian woman, one of you, everyone who attacks our president is ungrateful. Everything he did was for you and you don't like him? This is unbelievable. His Excellency the president, may God protect him, he is exerting all his efforts for you. He has distributed nearly 10000000 house units until now. He relieved Algeria of its huge debts. This is the least I know. But I know he did a lot and a lot. Up to know, he honored all his promises. Fear God. You should know that Bouteflika needs your help. You should be one hand. Arab and European countries envy us for our great president. I recognize only two presidents in the Arab World: Bouteflika and the Syrian president Bachar Al Assad. Therefore, I ask all Algerian women and men to stand all together with president Bouteflika. Even if there is injustice, you must challenge it through understanding, justice, national reconciliation and face the enemy.

He is in the third mandate. But other candidates are hungry. They ran for the elections to fill their stomachs. We are with Bouteflika and we don't want an Amazigh to rule us because he will destroy our lives and breach our rights. This is something well known. Congratulations Bouteflika for the 90% victory. There was no fraud in these elections. I hope that the Moroccan brothers respect us. Stop the idle talk that they are controlling us. This is not true. We have all the freedom in choosing our president. We are all Arabs and Muslims. May God guide those who want to separate us.

Tell who has defended the rights of Harraga and community abroad? Who has worked for the reform of Algeria, distributed houses to its people, built roads, hospitals, factories, defended the rights of students abroad and domestically? Who has guaranteed you medical care, social security, stability of the country, granted women full rights and paid back the debts of Algeria left by former presidents?

I am one of the supervisors who were in charge of supervising election boxes. However, at the time of sorting votes, voting was estimated at 18%. However, the statement written in the sorting report is 100% and the voting in favour of Bouteflika is 99%. This is the policy of Bouteflika: die in the presidential chair. He has achieved this policy through the theory of the rich getting richer and the poor getting poorer. Law is above everyone and everyone is starving.

The caravan passes, the media keeps barking and the treasury of the state is full. The ministries have many loots. They have eaten Algeria.

Those who ate the loots must prepare themselves for the defense of the nation from external powers.

MOMO Posted 2009-04-12

Hello Ladies and Gentlemen- First of all, why was it necessary to boycott the umpteenth masquerade of an election (my apologies go the inhabitants of Mascara)? First, for the last ten years our brave Minister of the Interior, Noureddine Yazid Zerhouni, has prohibited the expression of an entire part of society. This was just so that on 9 April 2009, this same oh-so-nice minister could magically invite us to express ourselves inside a dark, cold voting booth in front of a hideous ballot box to make pretend so that he could fill it up. And the form of the ballot box was rather one of Swiss cheese, given the more holes there are, the less cheese there is and vice versa. Second of all, if there were a so-called “high turnout”, then it would hide the excessive and systematic corruption of the electorate. It must be understood that, from this point, the corruption unfortunately attached the middle-most layers of society in addition to the inner workings of the state. In conclusion, in such a society, the buying and selling of votes and voters is the first product and sign of unavoidable change and it announce the inevitable decline and collapse of the system in favour of restructuring or breakdown.

qqnquiaimealgerie Posted 2009-04-12

It is impossible to accept a dictator who claims he got 74% of the vote when he got 14%. But, the Algerians are still just sheep, like they have been in past centuries, but with an income of 100 euros. Oh, oh, you poor people! They need media first of all, but there is none in Algeria. This is the only country in the world with only three television channels, unlike the others, which have at least 250 privatised stations. In the end, what a shame!

Most citizens are aspiring for an economic reboot but cannot find any solution except through our noble president, Bouteflika. He dares to give us an honourable solution so that our confidence may be unlimited and unrestrained and our country may be set in the process of perpetual development. To this effect, we may gain control of the thorny issue of managing the country and the concern for the future of the people may translate into: planned industrialisation via the creation of manufacturing business (including automotive, energy, technologic sectors, planned relief for current Algerian businesses and housing programmes, and investing in management and management tools); creating new economic cities far from Mitidja and Littoral and creating projects tied to agriculture and tourism; restarting the Boughezoul project and other similar projects in the interior of the country in order to stop the mass exodus; having the state take charge of the agricultural industry, even to the degree of becoming a partner and redeveloping and acquiring land in order to have large-scale cultivation; banning concrete in Mitidja and farmlands; allowing investment in marble and cement quarrying, aggregates, industrial carpentry, roofing and all construction industries; freeing up large industry to partner with construction craftsmen in order to increase demand (this would allow the injection of management technology and aid and allow Algerians to get to work on the urgent housing plans needing to be fulfilled – leave this work to Algerians so that they may escape social welfare and regain the hope of working to live better); re-establish the rule that you use your work, knowhow and sweat to live in an equal society while also doing away with the stupid ways of making a living (i.e., yielding to the dishonest in the country’s management processes); protect buying power while creating jobs and doing away with subsidies in order to increase job opportunities; re-inculcate the notion of work and put a stop to the creation of the social-welfare minded...

Salam alikum dear brother. I feel that Algeria is the mother of everyone. Oh people of Algeria, everyone is analyzing. This is odd, everyone talks as if they are expert in everything. We all agree that elections are fraudulent, democracy in our country is rotten, Kaiser is president by nature. We all say the announced turnout is fraudulent and inflated... France occupied Algeria for 130 years. Then it went out so that right goes back to its people. If we had lived that time, no one would think that the land would be restored to its people; but it had been restored. Think a little, it doesn't matter who rules... who eats it... who is its husband. The most important thing is that land belongs to everyone and it will be restored one day to everyone... They said about democracy of the eighties from the people to the people. In the nineties, they said by the people to the people. One day it will be said, from the abuser to the people. There is no harm that you think and don't succeed. But the problem is that you don't think at all.. Stay in your places and say to the world “Algeria is doing well”. Let them believe that the elections are fairer than what they think. Let them believe that Kaiser is a president without limits, all the people love him. Hold on your tongues so that the people think that democracy is fairer than the one alleged in the white house. But what is in the house is in the heart. There will be a victorious day. I am not a coward or frightful, but as the popular saying goes “keep our oil in our flour”.

Eh guys I tell you that I am in the building of Hadj Lakhdar, Bouteflika and Algeria are the building. Honestly, there is something. We don't know who is Hadj Touati.

ZABOURI Posted 2009-04-21

We support the building up of our nation and the prosperity of our people.

I would just like to point one thing out to everyone who holds a grudge against Bouteflika and simple ask them if they themselves managed to go outside after 4:00 PM during the 1990s, before Bouteflika came to power.

“A Call Out to the Government and President of Algeria from a Moroccan: Algeria is Called Upon to Stop Its Hostility against Morocco” - May praise be to God Alone and prayers and respects to the Prophet, His family and His companions. Algeria is a neighbouring country to Morocco, and seeing that the latter is on the right path to democracy and development has created and excuse for the former to enter into conflict with it. Algeria has forgotten the entire history that bears witness to how much Morocco once defended Algeria and took a heavy part in its independence. This time has passed and Algeria, the country, has a short memory. It has forgotten everything and, instead of supporting Morocco in its legitimate requests and claims about the Moroccan-ness of the Sahara, Algeria prefers to side with the separatists. It forgets that it is putting sticks in the spokes of the Arab Maghreb Union, a union so anticipated by millions of people of the Maghreb. Morocco is aware of the situation and prefers to follow the path of wisdom and reason and to opt for a union while also defending its territorial integrity in tolerance and ignoring the Algerians’ hostility and support for the separatists. But, alas, this time, having seen the wisdom of the Moroccans overcome its hostility, Algeria made use of all of its diplomatic power to force certain African countries to recognise the separatists as a state: the Sahrawi Arab Democratic Republic. However, it has none of the criteria of being such, with the exception of the millions of barrels of oil the Algerians offer it as a gift and reliance upon the latter’s baseless, groundless diplomacy. In spite of all of this hostility, Morocco, trusting in itself, has always declared that Algeria is a brother neighbouring country and that it has respects for good neighbourliness, hoping that one day Algeria will once again become aware of the usefulness of the Arab Maghreb Union. This union will guarantee work and dignity for all the citizens of the Maghreb and will guarantee peace for the region. Unfortunately, Algerian hostility has become more intolerable than it ever has before given the pressure it is placing on us with its purchasing of heavy weaponry and its movement of military convoys near to the border. All this is to provoke a country that has not ceased to extend its hand in help and support for Algeria. Algeria, seeing its internal problems become aggravated, wanted to turn its people’s attention to an imaginary crisis and an enemy whose only crime was that it was in favour of a union and it support Algeria in its most difficult times. Thus, for the record, we are telling Algeria to stop its hostility towards Morocco and to come take part along with us in realising the Arab Maghreb Union and developing our region for the good of our citizens. They have suffered enough and they deserve a lot of respect among everything else. –Signed, Acharif Moulay Abdellah Bouskraoui

I am very happy because the president of the third wilaya is Bouteflika. Thank you. I'm Maya from Algiers. I live in France. I am 13 years old.

Supposing that Bouteflika fills our mouths with money and profaned religion, will anyone speak and defend it. Honestly no one will because we all care only about life.

abdlatif laabour Posted 2009-05-12

I am Abdlatif. I wish you happiness. My greetings to Hamid, ok.

To Cherif Moulay Abdellah Bouskraoui. Salam alikum. I am from Algeria. Why don't you defy all Arab Islamic countries, proclaim the state of Palestine and declare animosity against Israel? If we achieve this, all the projects for the cause of God will be achieved, God willing. So there is no need for animosity because we Arabs, though we're not Arabs but belong to them, are always keen on finding the defaults of each other. Oh Lord guide us and reconcile us God willing.

Take the pen and write whatever you want. However, you cannot convince anyone. Hold your plume and draw whatever you want. However, you cannot coerce those who watch to admire it. You can dream of anything you want, wherever you want and whenever you want but you cannot achieve what you want.

Oh people... Yesterday we have seen a celebration in Algeria following the victory of Algerian footballers against Egyptians...Some of us didn't care. Some were happy. Some thought it was the day of independence. This is not the most important. I will tell you about a few things I saw on the day of the match. The date is exact and the hour is exact. I left home at half past eight. I was going to work. The streets were empty, no people, houses as well, no one in the streets and avenues. The moment was like Al Maghreb call for prayer during fasting days. You only hear the sound of TV in houses. No one speaks except the Muedhin. Sorry for the bad comparison. Commenter. I wanted to phone a friend of mine at work. Even phones were closed...To be continued.

A warm greeting to all the independent free hearts and minds on the occasion of the Independence Day. I was looking for the documentary “Algeria in the heart” by the director Abderahim Alaoui which summarizes the militant and political life of the Moujahid president Abdelaziz Bouteflika...Thank you. As to the texts posted here, commenting on them is not appropriate. However the culture I inherited from my father prevents me from discussions issues which might cause evil to my country Algeria unwillingly. Algeria is a country which still attracts the interests covetous to control it. Although they haven't clearly shown their intention, it is a tacit intention. Therefore, speaking relentlessly about national Algerian figures regardless of their rank or political affiliation without reserve or consideration of international conditions constitutes a threat to Algeria. There is a reality which should not be overlooked. There are two events which have marked the twentieth century (the liberation war from 1830 to 1962 and space invasion). I will stop here to avoid annoyance. A warm greeting to everyone who reads my comment. Abdelhakim.

Promotion of the first woman to the rank of general in Algeria. Bouteflika presidential pardon in favour of prisoners. Change of weekend from Thursday and Friday to friday and Saturday. If you want to talk about freedom of woman, Islam granted it fifteen centuries and ag and limited her freedom to that of man. About the pardon you are boasting of, God the Almighty and His messenger Mohaed, peace and prayer be upon him, ordered us not to be tolerant in the orders of God. You know the story of Al Makhzoumia woman and the story of Omar Ben Khattab God bless him. As to changing the days of the weekend claiming to preserve the economy, Islam deterred us from imitating blindly infidels as you have shared with them Saturday. Oh Lord guide us and reform our rulers for the good and welfare. Stop lowering your head.
