Aung San Suu Kyi

Aung San Suu Kyi is an important lady from Burma that 20 years ago(in 1991) won the Nobel  Prize by fighting in her own Country for more democracy. The Myanmar's pro-democracy icon Aung San Suu Kyi couldn’t receive her Nobel Prize until this June.  She has been under house arrest until  2010 when she has been released; then this year, in April, she was elected to the national parliament: she was finally able to make her speech of thanking.

Euronews reported some essential points of her speech as for example that many people in Burma are not been freed yet, and their only fault was (and is) to ask for more democracy. http://www.euronews.com/2012/06/16/aung-san-suu-kyi-finally-makes-nobel-acceptance-speech/

Unfortunately, Euronews is very brief in reporting news, that's why I wanted to post a video that I found on YouTube to give to her speech the importance that it deserves.
This video contains the first 6 minutes of her speech, I hope you will enjoy it....

New Hampshire

New Hampshire Elections: Euronews (LACKING) point of view.

Unfortunately Euronews didn't write any article about the election in New Hampshire even if the fact is  socially and politically very interesting. For the first time an USA's State will have an all female delegation.
In my opinion this election is important because it represents how the world is changing: people are beginning to open their own mind and to fight the male chauvinism that kept our societies stuck in a big mistake which is to underestimate the "weaker sex".
Euronews basically gave information about the general aspects of the presidential elections and then about Obama's election (here an example http://www.euronews.com/2012/11/07/obama-re-elected-as-us-president/).
Personally I'm offended by Euronews inaccuracy. I think this was a great topic of conversation that would have caught the interest of many people.

Annecy shootings

Annecy murder. As Euronews report the fact.

Euronews made the first article about Annecy's massacre on 6 September 2012.

http://www.euronews.com/2012/09/06/young-girl-found-alive-at-scene-of-massacre-in-france/

The article talks principally about a car discovered with inside a family murdered. Only one member survived unhurt at this massacre: a little girl (only 4 years old). The police say that probably the young girl survived only because she was hiding under her mom's legs. Another girl, about 7 years old, was found alive but in a critical condition.
This massacre happened near the village of Chevaline, in the French Alps. Nobody really saw anything important for the investigation.
The family was from England, the father of the family was an Iraqi-born whose name was Saad Al-Hilli.
The investigators have no idea of the reason why this family was killed.
Close to the car, another corpse of a cyclist whose only fault was probably to be in the wrong place at the wrong moment.

The second article is dated 7 September 2012.

http://www.euronews.com/2012/09/07/french-alps-attack-three-victims-shot-in-the-head

The car was discovered by an English cyclist who also saw a car and a motorbike leaving the crime scene.
On the Al-Hilli's car there wer five people: two women, a man and two young girls.
The investigators questioned the 4 year old girl and she confirmed she was with her mom, dad and sister but she didin't recognize the other woman.
The police said that Al-Hilli's family was murdered with no apparent reason. Saad's brother contacted the police, from which now he'll be questioned.

The third article is dated 8 September 2012.

http://www.euronews.com/2012/09/08/brother-of-french-alps-murder-victim-rejects-dispute-claims

The article is centered particularly on the oldest girl. She is on artificial coma. The police hopes she will get better so she will be able to give important information for the investigation. The brother of Saad Al-Hilli affirmed he wasn't in a bad relationship with his brother.

Another article about Annecy massacre is the one dated 12 September 2012.

http://www.euronews.com/2012/09/12/french-alps-murder-investigators-say-clues-are-in-the-uk

The article talks about Zeena's return to Britain and how impatiently the police are waiting to interrogate Zainab.
The victims bodies were returned to their family.
