International security analyst Nafeez Ahmed claims GIA atrocities were in fact perpetrated by the state.
He claims ‘ Yussuf-Joseph ’, a career secret agent in Algeria ’ s sécurité militaire for 14 years, defected to Britain in 1997 and told the Guardian that civilian massacres in Algeria, blamed on the GIA, were ‘ the work of secret police and army death squads … not Islamic extremists ’.
GIA terrorism was ‘ orchestrated ’ by ‘ Mohammed Mediane, head of the Algerian secret service ’, and ‘ General Smain Lamari ’, head of ‘ the counter intelligence agency ’.
The GIA has been completely turned by the Government … In 1992 Smain created a special group, L ’ Escadron de la Mort ( the Squadron of Death )… The death squads organize the massacres … The FIS aren ’ t doing the massacres .’
