HIBAPRESS
It appears that the Algerian commentator Hafid Derradji no longer finds anything in football to pique his interest, having transitioned from a sports reporter to a promoter of political animosity. Every occasion related to Morocco and its territorial integrity brings forth from the man the "store of resentment" he harbors towards the Kingdom, launching hollow posts, believing he is exercising a fictitious heroism in the name of "sovereignty."
His latest post, in which he said: "Sovereignty is seized, not granted…", was nothing more than a desperate attempt to justify the state of confusion experienced by the Algerian regime after the recent Security Council resolution, which settled the matter in favor of Morocco and its realistic proposal for autonomy under its full sovereignty over its Sahara. A decision that aborted decades of Algerian diplomatic maneuvers, and proved that the entire world now believes in the Moroccan Sahara and in the wise path chosen by King Mohammed VI to end this fabricated conflict. Instead of acknowledging the reality of the new situation, Derradji preferred to take refuge in a wooden discourse, reproducing what the military taught him in the Al-Mouradia Palace, believing that the echo of his words would transcend the walls of the media illusion in which he lives. But he forgot that the world has changed, and that people have come to distinguish between those who create development and stability, and those who are mired in propaganda and gratuitous hostility. Moroccans today do not need the testimony of the likes of Derradji, as Moroccanness is firmly established in history, geography, and international resolutions. And the "sovereignty" that this commentator speaks of is actually practiced on the ground, not written in Twitter posts, nor granted by dictates from behind the microphone. As for Derradji, it would be better for him to return to his original field where he can at least describe the goals instead of scoring them against himself every time with a new tweet.
