This video type is not for everyone, indeed it will probably be boring for most. So I have linked the video and articles that I am looking at in the video. For those who just want the facts in 5 minutes and not 30 minutes of practicing new French words! :)
Apologies for the camera, darkness, noise and my French. :)
The video of the Lampedusa woman:

"They have eaten the chickens, the goats, my dogs. I only have pigs left. I will not buy any more animals now."

***At 15:25, "they deserve everything" was my own sarcastic comment. That does not appear in the article. ***
***Also, there is a really annoying echo for ONE MINUTE at the very end. Really sorry about that, but it took 12 hours to render and I just don't have the time to fix it and re-export. *** :(
