How would the meaning of the following passage change if Wiesel used the word “troubles” rather than “plight”?
"Have we really learned from our experiences? Are we less insensitive to the plight of victims of ethnic cleansing and other forms of injustices in places near and far?"

Plight shows a long and big conflicted struggle and intensifies the problems being had. The word "troubles" is just like having an issue. For example one would say "I had trouble choosing a sandwich to eat for lunch", but no one would say "there was plight deciding what to eat for lunch"
