It's become a blank spot in the mind, erased by some unspoken consensus from all maps of human consideration.<br /><br />The growing realisation, this time round, among the victims, that the so called international community has abandoned them, can no longer be missed, even from here.<br /><br />Things in northern Syria are now again, as in the last months of 2016, at a stage of generalized suffering that would I sometimes think make the introduction of our tears of compassion merely a compounding of the disrespect.<br /><br />Things have come to this point because the world is as it is.<br /><br />My private view, in Syria as in, for example Gaza, or the West Bank, the long years of horror are far from over.
