African TERRORISM revolves around state, ethnic, religious, and tribal animosities. Dictatorships are common, and frequently produce state-sponsored terrorism. Ethnic cleansing and genocide are common at the hands of militia groups. Religious battles go on between the major denominations and hundreds of tribal religions. To make matters worse, Africa is still one of the last places on Earth where left-wing radical Communism runs rampant. To understand the mess that is Africa requires an understanding of
anti-colonialism as a source of terrorism.
Anti-colonial (nationalistic) terrorism existed in Africa from 1945-1975. Those were the years of the Wars of Independence from Western powers. Some were long guerrilla wars, and others simply involved terrorism. The chief architect of African terrorism was Frantz Fanon, author of The Wretched of the Earth ("As long as we have the wretched of the earth among us, we shall have terrorism"). It should be noted that some people in the field of peace studies regard Fanon as an architect of peace, not terrorism, but opinions vary, and if you ever wanted to read a good manual on how to become a good insurgent-terrorist, you couldn't do better than read Fanon. Born in Martinique, and trained in France to be a psychiatrist, Fanon joined the Algerian War for Independence in 1954. To be sure, Fanon's model of urban terrorism was not only practiced in Africa, but Asia, theMiddle east, and LatinAmerica as well. His ideas are summarized in the box below, and further analysis may come later:

FRANTZ FANON: A psychiatrist who believed that colonialism, and indeed, almost all things Western were the source of mental illness in the world. His ideas were the underpinning of the Algerian revolution. He wrote that Western influence has a dehumanizing effect by destroying local cultures, and that since the colonists established a condition where there is no other language than violence, achieving freedom (and mental health) requires carrying out more acts of violence, and it doesn't matter if the violence is successful, only that the cause is celebrated and publicized ("propaganda of the deed"). The Third World suffers from a massive identity complex, a double consciousness, if you will, and peaceful efforts at political change as well as personal change are useless. Terrorism does involve death, but it also has positive goals and liberating effects, and is better than guerrilla warfare because it just might result in radical change. Any foreigner in the Third World is an appropriate target for terrorism since political rights and privileges have already been cancelled by the rulers. In short, Fanon is considered a major apologist for terrorism today.
