In
Pictures: Orphans of the Sahara
Al
Jazeera chronicles the Tuareg struggle for an independent homeland.
The Tuareg
are the indigenous people of the Sahara desert.
They are
one of the poorest and most isolated peoples in the world - and one of the most
militarised.
They are an
army of the poor in a land of astounding natural wealth; an animal-herding
people in a dying world of drought.
For
decades, many Tuareg men have left their homes in search of work in
neighbouring countries. Thousands ended up in Libya, as workers and fighters,
and many as mercenaries for slain Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi.
