World War Two
Published 13 Nov 2021Operation Torch goes off this week, the Allied invasion of French Northwest Africa, but this prompts the Germans to invade Vichy France. This is the Allies’ first combined major offensive in the Western Hemisphere. The Germans launch another offensive of their own this week, though — Operation Hubertus in Stalingrad. And in the South Pacific, a major naval battle begins off Guadalcanal.

World War Two

As the Allied forces enter Algeria this week, it brings the thorny question of calling their arrival a “liberation”. While it is true that for many living in Algeria the arrival of Allied forces is a welcome change, such as for the Jewish population, for many little will change other than the flag flying above the land. Algeria is ostensibly a part of France proper, but there has certainly always existed a colonial relationship between the French government there and the millions of citizens who have inhabited the region for generations. So we ask you, was Algeria fully liberated? Can there be such a thing under colonial rule?
