INEGGURA : A WAKE UP CALL


Amirouche blasts Ishawiyen and all Algerians for their tribalism, backwardness and their sad state of affairs. A wake up call!

How did we end up last

Among the nations of the World

Our Land became a laughing stock

Others reached the moon

With us tribalism is the norm

If only ZalmaD and Laghrour* were here

They would have settled the score.


*Abbas Laghrour(1926-1957), a hero of the Algerian Revolution, from the region of Khenchela.

*Lmas3ud u ZalmaD is a mythical figure in the history of Aures. What some historians call a bandit d'honneur, Lmas3ud evaded the draft, refused to pay taxes and took to the mountains. He was a combination of Ben Boulaid, Robin Hood and Jesse James.
