Algiers, Algeria | August 25th, 2024 — In a recent survey conducted by a private media outlet, Dzair Tube has been overwhelmingly recognized by intellectuals, journalists, youth, and students as Algeria’s leading digital platform in countering the relentless disinformation campaigns orchestrated by Morocco’s Makhzen regime. Available in Arabic, English, and French, Dzair Tube stands as the foremost electronic media outlet in Algeria actively engaged in defending the nation’s vital interests and institutions against a barrage of hostile propaganda.
Following Algeria’s decision to sever diplomatic ties with Morocco due to the latter’s escalating threats to its strategic interests and national security, the country has been subjected to continuous media attacks aimed at destabilizing its internal cohesion and inviting foreign interference. These campaigns, bolstered by Morocco’s alliance with the Zionist entity, have intensified, underscoring the importance of robust media defense.
Champions of Algeria’s Media Resistance
Three prominent figures have emerged at the forefront of Algeria’s media resistance through their association with Dzair Tube: historian Dr. Mohamed Doumir, and journalists Moustapha Bounif and Mister AB.
Dr. Doumir has gained significant acclaim for his incisive historical analysis that dismantles the Makhzen’s expansionist narratives, particularly the myth of “Greater Morocco.” This concept, propagated by Moroccan nationalist leader Allal El Fassi, falsely asserts Moroccan claims over territories in Algeria, Mauritania, and Western Sahara. Dr. Doumir’s scholarly work has been instrumental in exposing the fallacies underlying these territorial ambitions, earning him widespread respect.
Moustapha Bounif, host of Dzair Tube’s popular show “Remontada,” has become a target of Moroccan-backed entities. In a shocking turn of events, Bounif was falsely declared dead on social media, leading even Facebook to open a condolence page based on forged documents submitted by Moroccan operatives. This smear campaign is a testament to the lengths to which the Makhzen will go to silence those who challenge its narrative.
Journalist Mister AB has similarly been a steadfast advocate for Algeria, particularly during the controversial “Rahma Ghazouini” incident. After a Moroccan woman and her son were treated with respect in Algeria, the son attempted to politicize their experience upon returning to Morocco, leading to a wave of orchestrated attacks on Mister AB. Despite the pressures, he has continued to defend Algeria’s interests, including during his tenure at Algiers International Airport, where he faced renewed assaults from Moroccan media.
Dzair Tube: A Pillar of Algeria’s Media Landscape
Dzair Tube’s rise to prominence has been marked by its commitment to countering Morocco’s increasingly aggressive media campaigns, which have intensified since the normalization of Moroccan-Zionist relations. Despite beginning with limited resources and a small team of 40 young, patriotic journalists, Dzair Tube has established itself as a crucial player in Algeria’s media defense, driven by a deep sense of duty to protect the nation’s sovereignty.
Originally launched as an Arabic-language news platform, Dzair Tube quickly recognized the need to expand its reach to combat disinformation and misinformation on a global scale. Under the strategic direction of its owner and director, Maamar Gani, the platform launched French and English editions, with the latter gaining significant traction among international audiences. Thanks to the director’s meticulous oversight, the English version has become a reliable resource for diplomatic missions and global media, effectively countering the misleading narratives disseminated by Moroccan outlets.
Dzair Tube’s multimedia approach, including the production of videos and infographics, has further solidified its position as a pioneering force in Algeria’s digital media landscape. Its creative and vigorous presence on social media platforms has made it a rallying point for young Algerians committed to defending their country’s image.
