Post in another thread made me think and I was going to raise my thought there but totally off-topic so trying a new thread.
There seem so many issues of great concern in the World that we should care about but we each have different focus on different issues.
Whilst there are some horrendous atrocities happening in some African countries they don't take as much of my attention as maybe the events justify and as given by others.
Maybe there are just too many issues these days for us to give them all the attention they warrant (and keep any sanity).

For me i think it's a balance of how extreme the issue is with my personal experience of the area. eg I pay far more attention to issues in Burma than most people probably because I spent a fair time there travelling independently (and had some "involvement" with the junta). Any news report and I'll be reading it start to end. Same for Peru & Bolivia.
