10 Biggest Conflicts in 2013

10 Biggest Conflicts in 2013

Since the beginning of times there are have been millions of conflicts that have lasted for s very long time.  2013 was a year filled with fairly recent conflicts and some very old conflicts.  Louise Arbour wrote a great article about the top 10 conflicts of 2013 which is called "10 Conflicts to watch in 2013". This article explains all the conflict in a very detailed manner. 

Here is the Link to the article:

I am amazed by all the conflicts in that article mainly because some of the conflicts are as old as 10 years old and they are still fighting. The worst part is that those are only the top 10. There are thousands of other conflicts that are still going on today and have been going on for decades. Another thing that amazes me is that even if one conflict ends or improves; 5 or 6 or 7 more emerge. If all this conflicts keep on growing and growing we will not have a world to live in because it will be just a huge warzone. The UN needs to pull their shit together and do some serious decisions that will actually help fix these problems instead of sitting around vetoing ideas that could eventually save millions of lives.
