The annual meeting of the UN General Assembly started today,
with a number of important speeches. My gut instinct is that there is a bit of
space for new diplomacy initiatives as far as Syria and Iran are concerned. But
then I think of the many other places that attract little attention and are in
the midst of serious national crisis. These are the forgotten conflicts. But
death, violence, rape, and sheer fear are the ones that do not forget people in
those lost corners of our collective memory.
