Talk:Abd el-Krim

The Rif are Berbers, not Arabs.
That is true. Also, Abd el Krim had not a regular army, but a series of kabilae, which were united after him on the call of a yidah against the unfaithful. I cannot understand why this article silences the systematic violations of the international war agreements by Abd el Krim's forces, such as torturing prisoners (which included castrating and miming them) prior to killing them with a horrible death, like burning them alive or tiding their arms with their own guts.
- If you can provide credible evidence (and sources) for these claims, by all means add them. They sound suspiciously like propaganda to me, though... - Mustafaa 19:32, 17 Jan 2005 (UTC)
Name
Shouldn't the name of the article be the transliteration of his official full name? I find this to be a persistent problem on Wikipedia. I am not saying that we remove the Maghribi pronounciation of his name, but reverse the order by naming the article after his official name, and then putting other AKA's on the top as we have currently.
