God's Wrath Revealed Against Algeria

This is only a brief list of Godsmacks that have been delivered against Algeria:

December 11, 2007 – Using two car bombs and a suicide bomber, Al-Qaeda attacked Algeria’s Constitutional Council and UN offices in its capital city, Algiers, killing more than 60 people. A bus full of school children took a lot of the force of one blast.

September 8, 2007 – At least 30 people were killed and 60 injured in a car bomb attack on the naval barracks in Dellys.

A tsunami was also generated by the earthquake, damaging boats off the coast of the Balearic Islands. A May 27 aftershock of magnitude 5.8 killed 3 and injured 200.

March 6, 2003 – A Boeing 737 crashed just after takeoff in southern Algeria, killing 102 people.

November 10, 2001 – Violent storms caused worst flash floods in 4 decades and killed up to 1,000 people.

1992-September 1997 – Approximately 100,000 died in the Algerian Civil War, which was an armed conflict between the Algerian government and the Islamic Salvation Front (FIS) joined with a number of Islamic extremist groups.  This war effectively ended in a government victory, but a state of emergency is still in place, because isolated terrorist attacks still occur (there are many such attacks not mentioned in this timeline).

October 10, 1980 – Earthquake in El Asnam of magnitude 7.3 was the largest in the area since 1790; an aftershock of magnitude 6.3 occurred 3 hours later. 3,500 people were killed, 300,000 were left homeless, and among the buildings destroyed were a hospital, a department store, two housing complexes, a girls’ school, and a mosque.

November 1, 1954-March 18, 1962 – The Algerian War of Independence was a violent, bloody war that caused the deaths of 1.5 million Algerians (according to Algeria) and 350,000 French (according to France) and resulted in Algeria’s independence from France. In this war, the Algerian force known as the National Liberation Front (FLN) killed Algerians and French alike. Both sides engaged in terrorism and torture.

The short of all this is: Algeria is not blessed of God. Algeria does not have peace. Algeria will never have peace. The national statistic for people with HIV/AIDS is 21,000! Algeria is still plagued with terrorist attacks by rebels, because Algeria is a nation of rebels against their God. They have a little bit of a good standard going on, but it’s their standard – not God’s. They’ve gone about making their own righteousness, so the Lord God Almighty has answered this rebellious behavior with more and more destruction. However, the Algerians will not heed the warning replete in these adumbrations of His wrath. These are the verses for this hour:

Deuteronomy 4:24  For the LORD thy God is a consuming fire, even a jealous God.

Psalm 137:8  O daughter of Babylon, who art to be destroyed; happy shall he be, that rewardeth thee as thou hast served us.
9  Happy shall he be, that taketh and dasheth thy little ones against the stones.
