Colin, your examples only server to support my view - as long as it is nuclear, it is a whitehouse issue, it is in the "spin", and gets played in newspapers and TV all over the US.
I didn't say "US Interests", I said "Sadly, there is no great US interest in this specific area" - it is sad that people die every day in an almost endless war, but because there is no underlying importance to the area (except the current possiblity of terrorists hiding out), there is little information in the western media.
When people die when nobody is looking, does anyone ever know?

And this is specific to the United States? Why do you target the US specifically in your statement? Why not say PEOPLE are most interested in the things that affect them rather than singling out the US?
Is there widespread interest where you live for what is going on in Burundi today? Can you name off the top any of the factions involved? How about Nigeria? Zimbabwe? How many people do you know that could summarize the ongoing conflicts in those areas? Is this a US thing or something about humans in general?
