The FLN committed to total war for full independence, not concessions

Evidence

Here a crucial political decision was taken by unanimous vote: the armed revolt under preparation would not be one single blow aimed at drawing concessions from France, but an “unlimited revolution” à outrance to continue until full independence was achieved. — Horne, Alistair, A Savage War of Peace- Algeria 1954-1962, 241 (#corroborates, via linked claim)

It was along this road of war without quarter against the civil population that the F.L.N. now began to move, as other terrorist bodies have done since. The consequences would not be all that far-removed from the situation envisaged by Marighela. — Horne, Alistair, A Savage War of Peace- Algeria 1954-1962, 371 (#expands, via linked claim)
