History

The Significance of Yennayer 2950:
Yennayer 1, 2950 marks the Amazigh new year. The origin of Yennayer refers to the first mention of the Amazigh people in historical records: the founding by Amazigh Pharaoh Sheshonq I of the 22nd pharaonic dynasty in 950 BC, followed by the 23rd and 24th Amazigh pharaonic dynasties, over 200 years (950 BC-712 BC) of Amazigh rule in ancient Egypt. by Salah Badjou.

Tamazgha Toponame

Toponymie is a science which studies places names (toponymes). It seeks their meaning, their etymology, but also their transformation throughout the centuries. We deal here with the toponymie of Tamazgha (North Africa):

Toponame: Sefrou
Signification: la cachette du lion
Explication: le terme azefrou (soufre) a été proposé pour la signification du toponymes du fait qu’il a été exploité dans la région. Cependante, il faut noter l’absence de ce minéral dans la région. Le mot « Asefrou » est composé de « as » qui veut dire lieu et «frou » du verbe iffer : se cacher. Dans la région de Boulemane on trouve un toponyme qui prend le nom de « Asefrou n yezem » qui veut certainement dire la cachette du lion. Sefrou veut donc dire : lieu de la cachette ou simplement l’abri.

Mali: for a definitive solution for the conflict in Azawad
Since a few days ago, North-Mali is aware of a renewed tension between the malian regular army and the fighters of the National Movement of Liberation of Azawad (MNLA). The Amazigh World Congress (CMA) regrets and condemns the use of weapons as a solution for the political conflicts and is strongly worried about the consequences of the military escalation on the inhabitants of the region. The CMA particularly warns the malian army to avoid any temptation to go against the civil populations, already strongly deteriorated by the life conditions in these arid territories.... Full story

Survey

Mustapha Abdeljalil at the beginning of the Libyan uprising was appointed NTC president (national council transition) in Benghazi after its liberation the first month; But the Gadhafi regime was so strong that even five months of NATO air strikes couldn’t put an end to him. Only when NATO decided to drop the weapons to Amazighs (Berber) Libyans who were able to finish the job one month after by liberating a number of cities in their path before entering the palace of Bab Laaziziya in Tripoli.
Gadhafi died on October 20, 2001. On October 23, 2011, Mustapha Abdeljalil with his team of Islamists and panarabistes declared during the independence ceremony from Benghazi and not from Tripoli: "We have decided to establish the Islamic law “Shariaa” in Libya and all the laws that it objects are prohibited from today, now the Libyans have rights to marry four wives!
The whole world is turned upside down by:
1 - The abuse of power: a spokesman for NTC to a spokesman of Libyan people without ever being elected, exactly what Gadhafi had done in 1 September 1969.
2 - The imposition of Islamic Shariaa law without people’s agreement
3 - The announcement of the rights of Libyans to marry four wives as if they took up arms for this wish rather than for freedom.
Today, the question is: has UN brought NATO to Libya for the Libyans rights to marry four wives?

Yes, UN has brought NATO to Libya for the Libyans right to marry four wives
No, UN has brought NATO to Libya for Libyans right to democracy
No, UN brought NATO to Libya for NATO members right to Libyan oil
