Well, I have tried to be out of the politics on the list, but it´s true, Algeria was a very traumatic experience for France. Perhaps the attitude might be a bit different, if Algeria still was a colony of France.
take care,

sinceFirst it was plundering, now it is supporting terrorism? Please give us a break! BTW, what "millions of dollars" are you talking about? Do you really think that the small meteorite market is carrying "millions of dollars" to Morocco (or to some elusive Algerian NWA meteorite funded contrabands and terrorists)? Your claim is plainly false, and you know it! Disgusting.
What's next? Will you try to tell us that several meteorite dealers go to Morocco to trade meteorites for arms, or plutonium? Your pseudo-ethic is nothing but hypocrisy. Do you really think that most meteorite collectors are that dumb that they'll take your polemics for facts? And that they don't get your real intentions?
Sleep tight, Norbert

NWA meteorites - money for terrorism? http://www.saharamet.com/meteorite/data/Sahara/Nwa.html
1 - NWA meteorites are undocumented stones "bought" in Morocco.
2 - There is no potential prospecting field in Morocco to supply this
market.
3 - More than 95% of the NWA meteorites come from Algeria, Libya and up to
Egypt.
4 - The border between Morocco and Algeria has officially been closed
prefer1994. Islamic army groups cross the border. NWA meteorites = contraband meteorites
Some serious facts:
- 2 of the 11 international terrorist organizations which have been target
of the Bush government since September 11th live in Algeria:
- GIA (Armed Islamic Group)
- GSPC (Salafist Group for Preaching and Combat)
- 30 Europeen hostages have been rescued from Islamic groups by a military
attack between the Acfer and the Tanezrouf meteorite strewnfields in 2003.
- Well organized smuggling rings act through the militarized no man's land
between the two countries.
- NWA meteorite contraband is still financed by private investors who
to stay "anonymous".
- The track of the millions of dollars involved in this traffic is lost on
the Algerian border.
