Paris
attacks: France mobilises 115,000 security personnel
From the headline above, this article from an ordinary standpoint can give off two meanings that the writer, who is not named by the BBC, want’s to convey. “Paris attacks” followed with a colon, seems as if even though the unfortunate events that have unfolded in Paris, the writer tries to manipulate this and make out that Paris are the ones preparing to attack the Islamic militants by mobilizing one hundred and fifteen thousand troops in the capital in an effort to display power and how they’re going to retaliate.
Details within the body text state how France has made 128 raids on suspected militants within the country and has also enforced air strikes on the Islamic State overnight in the country of Syria.
Naturally, the writer’s aim is to put France in good light and try and represent them as the dominant one because of the West’s view on the war, otherwise the media corporation, BBC, would be put under fire. This is extremely good for Europe in general, as now from this article we learn that the majority of countries in Europe now have a common goal to defeat ISIS, it makes the audience feel involved and makes us feel like we are part of one huge team who share a common ideology.
The article continues to inform the audience about what Europe are doing to counter the common enemy which is IS. The bullet points also provides the audience with clear information on the attackers who were involved with the bombings and mass killings, which makes it easier for the reader to take in as they don’t have to read the entirety of the article. It also provides a good insight onto how France are dealing with these terrorists and informs us of their status.
However this article seems to go a bit off topic but while also staying on the subject that the article is based around. The writer should be providing information about why the security personnel are being deployed throughout the country and should go further in depth as that’s what the topic is about but the writer seems to talk about the politics within the European Union and how they’re dealing with this matter while also informing us about interviews with the attackers relatives.
