Not that it's important, but I'm not sure about removing Dlimi from the Category:Moroccan politicians. Okay, he wasn't a politician per se, but no-one who ran Morocco in those days was. Shouldn't it be intepreted a little more liberally, as people who have been politically active in Morocco? Something like "political figures" of Morocco. Arre 00:12, 11 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Arre, don't forget that Wikipedia is about facts and not philosophy. A military is a mili and a politician is a poli. Donald Rumsfeld is a poli while Colin Powell is both. Cheers -- Szvest 01:40, 11 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Well, yes, but the line was kind of blurred in Morocco in the 1960s-90s. A few military or security personalities had a tremendous influence on politics, much more so than most of the "real" politicians: Dlimi, Oufkir, Basri etc. And the real politicians were frequently not officially recognized as politicians either, but rather as law-breakers... Should Ben Barka go into the category of "Moroccan fugitives from the law" instead? ;-) Ah, well. The more I think about it, the more I think you're right... Arre 09:03, 11 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Definitively should be classed as a politican. He was Hassan II second-hand man. If Colin Powell can be classed as both a politician and a military, why couldn't Ahmed Dlimi, Oufkir, or any other military involved in politics? Would Pinochet be classified only as a military?
