The big Conflict sucking all the oxygen out of the news-scape is Russia-Ukraine. Click the link for an explainer. Once the media fixates on something, any other news falls by the wayside. The US will not get directly involved in this one. Fighting a nuclear armed power is never a good idea, especially one with over 6,000 nukes. 

What conflicts are we not talking about (as much anyway)?

Libya?

Afghanistan? 

Iraq?

Somalia? 

And threats of war.

Iran- Israel 

India- Pakistan 

China- Taiwan 

North and South Korea

United States- anybody we don't like. We're always up for a new war.  

Knowing that many of these potential conflicts involve nuclear armed powers, we would do well to keep them in mind. A regional nuclear war, deadly enough in it's own right, can quickly escalate beyond control. All of these tensions warrant attention and work towards resolutions.
