English subtitles for clip: File:1955-08-25 Rebellion Spreads in North Africa.ogv

1
00:00:22,058 --> 00:00:25,372
North Africa is aflame with civil war, which from day to day

2
00:00:25,372 --> 00:00:28,992
grows in intensity. The tide of battle shifts from Algeria

3
00:00:28,992 --> 00:00:30,600
to Morocco almost hourly,

4
00:00:30,600 --> 00:00:33,833
as completely aroused nationalist natives take on the full

5
00:00:33,833 --> 00:00:35,342
military might of France.

6
00:00:35,342 --> 00:00:38,779
Hit-and-run raids leave villages in flames, often with most

7
00:00:38,779 --> 00:00:40,512
of their inhabitants massacred.

8
00:00:40,512 --> 00:00:44,325
All roads are under guard and barricaded, passable only

9
00:00:44,325 --> 00:00:45,675
to the French military.

10
00:00:45,675 --> 00:00:48,705
Even as talks between Arab leaders and the French take place,

11
00:00:48,705 --> 00:00:51,921
the unbridled fury of the guerrilla warfare continues.

12
00:00:51,921 --> 00:00:55,619
With two and a half divisions deployed and French reservists

13
00:00:55,619 --> 00:00:59,038
called up, the rebels continue to fight, but at a cost:

14
00:00:59,038 --> 00:01:01,999
Already, 1,700 are dead.

15
00:01:06,364 --> 00:01:09,185
Not even hospitals are spared in the savage struggle.

16
00:01:09,185 --> 00:01:12,808
As for the non-combatants, they as always are the pawns

17
00:01:12,808 --> 00:01:15,945
in the rebellion whose seeds are sown deeply.
