The Investigators for the world's diamond body control say that the security force of Zimbabwe should be suspended. The security forces are raping women, killing illegal miners, and smuggling gems. The Zimbabwe authorities have denied such charges, but Kimberly Process Investigators said that the information provided my the Zimbabwe authorities were false.

__**Sources:**__ http://www.nzherald.co.nz/world/news/article.cfm?c_id=2&objectid=10607566&ref=rss []

__**Similarities and Differences**__ I found that the two articles were very similar but also had some or few differences. I noticed that both articles had the same 1st paragraph and then noticed there were even more paragraphs that were the same. Both the articles had all the same paragraphs up to the 6th paragraph. After that, the paragraphs were either different or a few were the same. I also noticed that both articles both had the word "suspension" in the title. In nzherald, the title is "Rapes and killings may earn mining suspension" and in TaipeiTimes, the title is "Diamond report calls for suspension of Zimbabwe".Both the articles contained pretty much the exact same quotes word for word. A difference I noticed between the two is that in the title it mentions different things but they are both about the same conflict. In nzherald's article, the title had "rapes and killings", but in TaipeiTime's article, the title had "diamond report calls". Another difference I see is that TaipeiTimes contained 2-3 more paragraphs than nzherald's article.

__**Opinion:**__ My opinion on this article is that it is just sad to see men raping women, smuggling gems/diamonds, and killing illegal miners. It makes it more sad that the men raping these women in Zimbabwe is the security forces of Zimbabwe itself. It pisses me off to see that in another country, military officers are raping their own people(women). I mean common, what kind of military government is this? I'm glad the investigators found out about this because they can try putting a stop to all this nonsense. The security forces are also even smuggling gems which i find very greedy. I think the people in the military of Zimbabwe are bad people. Well not all, but I think the officers involved in the rape, killings, and smuggling should be found and punished. I find the 2 articles well wrote and it never got boring at all. The two articles tell us that there are some bad people in the military of Zimbabwe.

While Rwanda miners were busy clearing a mine shaft for exploration, the mine got caved in on Saturday. It was a mine in Nyakabingo, Shyorongi and these miners were trapped. The first groups of miners were rescued Sunday and the last groups of three were rescued Monday. The first group consists of seven miners that were rescued that Sunday. In all, the number of miners there were and rescued was ten.

__**Sources:**__ [] []

__**Similarities and Differences**__ Both of these articles were alike and different in many ways. They both had titles saying Rwanda miners were rescued from a collapsed mine. The two articles also contained some quotes and both had same day the miners were rescued which was Tuesday. They both even mention about how three miners died in a cassiterite and coltan mine in Rutongo which is North of Rwanda. Some differences between the two are that they were posted on different days. For example allAfrica’s article was posted on October 28, 2009 and REUTER’S article was posted on October 27, 2009. As you can see, that’s a one day difference. Another difference between them is that allAfrica mention that the mine is 18 kilometers out of Kigali and REUTERS didn’t say anything about that. allAfrica’s title was “Rwanda: Ten Rescued From Collapsed Mine” and REUTER’S title was “Rwanda miners rescued from collapsed mine-minister”. As you can see, allAfrica has the number rescued in their title and REUTERS didn’t. REUTER’S title had minister though.

__**Opinion**__
I thought the articles were both interesting and said the main idea well. I think they should really increase the safety for miners because this article shows they don’t have enough safety. The two articles tell us you can die being a miner and it’s a dangerous job. My opinion is they should improve mining safety by like making a list of rules on how to go into a mine and inspect it. That way less lives would be demolished by mines.
