See no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil

Today the box set of Planet of the Apes was released. I bought it because I really, really, like the Simpsons condensed version.

I thought I would be bored but amused watching the original 'Apes' again. Then I was reminded of 'See no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil.'

Stealing from Wikipedia:

“See no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil” is a common phrase, usually used to describe someone who doesn’t want to be involved in a situation or that they are turning a willful blind eye to an evil act he is involved in.

See also turn a blind eye.

The free world is summed up by the phrase 'turn a blind eye to'.....

The rest of the world, is what the wrong half of the free world, should be worried about.

Instead the problem is of course ________.
