Without a proposed solution you are just playing another game of “ain’t it awful?” In the 1930’s some ‘progressives’ were unhappy that the US didn’t intervene in the Spanish Civil War. Sooooo they formed the Abraham Lincoln Brigade and went over and did the best fighting they knew how. Although the Republican’s lost you can’t fault these men for effort. I’ll suggest you do the same. Being one of the first you could probably be a colonel at least. And if you got home you’d be the lion of so many dinner parties. Think of how many sentences you’d be able to start with, “And there I was… “ even before desert was served. Let me know when you’re leaving, I’d love to see you “off”.
