I would like to express my sadness and my condolences to our Algerian colleagues who may have relatives or friends in or near Algiers that were victims of the terrible quake that shook the Algerian capital city. I am French and have many friends from Algerian background, I share their concern and sorrow, Algeria does not need more suffering.

« ALGIERS, Algeria (May 22) - Rescue workers struggled to save survivors and international aid workers rushed to Algeria on Thursday after the most devastating earthquake in two decades struck near the capital, killing nearly 1,000 people and injuring more than 5,000. »
Patricia Posadas had very kind words for our Turkish colleagues following the earth quake in eastern Turkey (I had no access to ProZ.com at the time so I could not add my words to hers – although Turkey has a special place in my heart since my father was born and grew up in Istanbul).
Sincerely,
JL
PS – not trying to pass for Mother Teresa here- just a human being citizen of the World.

When confronted with the wrath of Nature, pain, suffering and death, all petty differences should be forgotten and we should remember our common humanity.

Je ne sais s'il est covenable de vous dire merci dans pareilles circonstances, car toute sympathie de votre part ne m'étonne aucunment. Vos pensées nous touchent énormément. Je sais, ainsi que bien d'autres algériens, que nos amis se comptent par millions.
Mais rassurez-vous nous sommes de nature retive au malheur...nous panserons nos blessures et reconstruirons de nouveau et notre Algérie ne sera que meilleure.
Bonne nuit à tous

I just want to say 'thank you' to all those who had a thought and an expression of sympathy toward the people of Algeria after the tragic earthquake that Northern parts of the country.
The Algerian people endured a lot over the last two decades, often in silence and solitude.
