Who was Saïd Mohammedi?
Col. Saïd Mohammedi, or Si Nacer, was an Algerian nationalist and politician.
Born in the Berber Kabyle region of Tizi Ouzou, Saïd Mohammadi served in the French army. Attracted to Arab nationalism, and intensely religious, he became involved with the Mufti of Jerusalem, Hajj Amin al-Husseini. During World War II, he joined the Mufti to work with the German Luftwaffe, hoping that Hitler's defeat of France would lead to the liberation of Algeria and other French colonies. He was parachuted into Tunisia in 1943 to serve as a German Abwehr agent, but captured and sentenced to life in prison.
