Frankfurt, Germany(TMT)- As Hilary clinton’s emails archive was made searchable by Wikileaks a couple of hours ago, the archive, containing a trove of diplomatic cables, unveiled an unprecedented piece of information about a secret cooperation between Algeria and the head of Al-Qaeda in the Maghreb (Well known under its French acronym AQMI).
In an email Hilary received from a sender, by name Sidney Blumenthal, with an id “Sid,” probably an acronym for Secret Identifier, and with the subject line “LATEST FRENCH INTELLIGENCE REPORTS ON ALGERIAN HOSTAGE CRISIS” [the email was not fully decrypted by Wikileaks], the one reads that the Algerian authorities made a secret deal with Mokhtar Belmokhtar, well known under The One-Eyed nickname, to commit terrorist attacks in the Moroccan Sahara.
Belmokhtar, who is the leader of the group Al-Murabitoun, and a former military commander of Al-Qaeda in the Maghreb, has probably made the deal with the Algerian authorities right after the In Amenas hostage crisis, a terrorist attack which saw the killing of 39 foreign hostages (mostly from Japan) along with one Algerian security guard.

The reader can clearly distinguish the following statement “secret understanding with Belmakhtar” was made “to concentrate his attacks” “in Western Sahara,” the appellation the United Nations uses to refer to the Moroccan Sahara.
