Oct 15, 2008 Western Sahara: Nonviolent Intifada; Diplomatic Impasse
In 1975, as the last prolonged stage of Africa's decolonization
process began with the fall of Portuguese colonialism, Portugal's
neighbor Spain decided to dispose of its colony of Western Sahara
by handing it over to Morocco and Mauritania, defying a World Court
decision in favor of self-determination. For thirty-three years,
Morocco has continued its occupation, with military and diplomatic
support from the United States and France.
