You're watching multisource headline video news analysis from Newsy.



For former IMF head Dominique Strauss-Kahn - the saga of legal troubles continues.
From the hotel maid---to Tristane (Tri-stan) Banon (Bay-no). The French writer has officially filed a complaint against DSK, saying -- he tried to rape her after an interview in 2003. Banon’s mother however---did not want her daughter to report it.

Anne Mansouret: “She was sobbing. She said, mom something terrible happened to me. He jumped on me. I told her listen, you know, if you had been raped I wouldn’t have hesitated. There wasn’t a rape strictly speaking. There was an attack. For the rest of your life you would have on your resume, you know, Tristane Banon, that’s the girl who, well... you know.”

More than two months after the raid on Osama bin Laden’s compound, his family--still can’t go home. A Pakistani commission says Bin Laden’s wives and children won’t be able to leave the country until the government gives them permission. Here’s MSNBC.

“His three wives and children have been detained since the May raid. The family members must stay in Pakistan on orders from the country’s intelligence agency.”

On Wednesday, Israeli police arrested three people reportedly involved in an ‘aerial flotilla,’ which was launched after the seabound flotilla stalled. The activists will be deported back to France and Belgium. The only problem for Israel? Five others got past security and into the country. As for the U.S.---it wants to avoid getting involved at all costs.

“The U.S. is warning Americans against participating in the flotilla. Last year's Gaza flotilla ended in violence.”

Facebook made a quote- “awesome” announcement today. CEO Mark Zuckerberg announced the addition of Skype video chat to Facebook’s services. Skype is a Microsoft-based video calling service. Heres HLN.

Patricia Wu: “And that means instead of just typing a message to your Facebook friends, you’ll be able to see and talk to them. Just last week though, Google announced that video chat is part of its new social network Google-Plus. Coincidence? I think not.”

And in sporting news---

“The 23rd Olympic games are awarded to the city of --- Pyeongchang (cheers)”
 

Pyeongchang, South Korea wins the bid for the 2018 winter Olympics. The Asian country beat out bids by Germany and France to host the games. Pyeongchang lost two previous bids to host the competitions.
