Correct. The interesting issue in Algeria is the Berber background... There are those there that reject the Arabization and are friendly with Israel

I’ve met Berbers from Algeria who were always quick to point out the fact that they are not Arabs when I tell them my father was a Frenchman born in Algiers. They protested enough to stop the Algerian government when it wanted to change the language of instruction from French to Arabic. The Berbers have seen the Carthaginians, the Romans, the Arabs, the Turks and the French come and go so they know they can simply wait out the current regime.
