I despair

I’ve just sat and watched Channel 4 News. Personally think it should be compulsory viewing!
I don’t know how I can face Christmas knowing that thousands in Syria are hunting for their dead in mass graves. How are we, as a ‘civilised world’ allowing what happened to be under reported? Why aren’t we doing something? I feel so individually helpless and hopeless. I want to say more but I have lost all hope
