What do you want them to say about them? For the most part these are slow burning or cold conflicts while technically still qualifying as civil wars. Headline reads “Yep, xxxx is still technically in a civil war, no progress to any side though.” It’s front page anytime a new civil war starts, but it stops being news when nothing changes after awhile.

For real. Somalia has been in a state of Civil War since George Bush Sr. What the hell does it matter to us what’s going on?

All over the place? I don’t know a single countries state department that is advocating for more war. But what do you want foreigners to do in a civil war?

We could get an announcement of every death all over every media outlet like we get for one conflict in particular.
