Question
This organization used the term “bearded ones” to refer to its enemies, such as the “Retaliation” group and the Movement for Community, or MPC. The Croatian-born Albert Dovecar was executed for his role in this organization’s Commando Delta Team 1. Two of the “quartet of generals in retirement” formed this organization after losing the Battle of the Transistors during the 1961 “Generals’ Putsch.” Attempts to stop a blockade of a town controlled by this organization, (*) Bab El Oued (“BAB ul WAH-di”), resulted in the Isly massacre. Frederick Forsyth’s The Day of the Jackal fictionalized a plot by this organization to assassinate Charles de Gaulle. This organization led by Raoul Salan perpetrated a series of bombings in Oran in reaction to the Évian Accords. For 10 points, name this French terrorist organization that opposed Algerian independence. ■END■
