Have you heard of Paris massacre of 1961 ?

Question

Have you ever heard of Paris massacre of 1961?

Thousants of algerian civilians,women,kids have been massacred by french police while french local bystanders watch passively.

Answer 1

Actually the number is more like 70 with estimates ranging from 50 - 200.

And the context is important as at this time Algerian terrorists had been murdering French civilians, including women and children, along with thousands of their fellow Algerians.

Answer 2

Yes, I've heard of it. France has some ugly chapters in its history. Newsflash: *EVERY* country has some ugly chapters in its history. As a matter of fact, when one looks at history objectively, the vast majority of it is rather ugly. This is supposed to be reserved for questions about travel to France, by the way, not pseudo-political questions based on selective indignation. Have you heard of the Islamic Salvation Front and the Islamic Salvation Army's campaign of violence? Get a life.

Answer 3

Your grammar is poor - and your propaganda is false -

  there were algerian FLN and non FLN victims but they have not been "massacred" in the conditions that you describe -

and don't choose the US site to sell your peanuts - because precisely americans at that time backstabbed us on the international level, in agreement with ussr in order to sponsor arabs and take the control of Mediterranea through Algeria - just what they still do everywhere - but at the end Algeria went under control of the soviets after 1962 - that they do not teach you in Algiers - what about your daily massacres of berberes today ? with your (very) special forces.

Answer 4

And?

have you heard of vietnam where thousands of civilians were killed by the US army, etc.....

what is your point?

Answer 5

Arrête ta propagande pauvre con. Il y a eu entre 50 et 200 morts et pas des milliers. Durant cette guerre il ya eu des massacres DES DEUX COTES. Alors stp ne profite pas de la naiveté des américains pour faire ta propagande mensongère. L'Algérie est indépendante c'est très bien donc maintenant vous nous foutez la paix et tout ira pour le mieux. Merci.

Answer 6

Of course it's very known!!! Surely the worst thing happened in France since WW2.
