TEHRAN Some 14 members of an Algerian family, including six women and four children, were murdered in the north of that country, Algerian press reported Tuesday. The throats of several of the victims were cut and others had been axed to death Monday night, the reports cited local people as saying.
The dead were members of a family of farm workers in the village of Ouled Amrane, in Ain Defla district, 120 kilometers west of Algiers. However, the international community should take action against such inhuman acts and stop its indifference toward such incidents. The West, afraid of developments in the world of Islam, has been always cold-blooded toward the atrocities against the Muslims. In fact the blood of Muslims throughout the world has no value for the Westerners. When they say the human rights should be observed, the word human' is only applied to themselves and their mercenaries, and by the word right' they mean their own interests which they believe should be ensured.
