The international community? What "community"? A bunch of well paid individuals who ha e no idea on what is happening. Or they do not really care if there's nothing for them.
I'm not a fan of going out and do your own justice but in your country's case I don't see other options.

    You are right.

    1. There is no sense of community. If anything is done in the next month it will be because every border country (Colombia, Brazil) and the most wanted destinations (Peru, Chile and Argentina) will react to the threat we represent now for their own social and economic peace, not because they feel our pain and want to do something about it.
    2. Something must be done here, by ourselves, but it is not easy. Unlike other countries, where civilians have access to weapons, we don't. The military is too corrupt and committed to the government. Plus, way too many have left, many of them were the motors of protests and organization.
      Those who still stay are way too demoralized, demotivated and concerned about immediate things. The government controls everything and that makes it very difficult for anyone to organize anything. Imagine that we are getting to a point where you can't even joke about the government. There are two firefighters being prosecuted now for "instigating hatred". Their crime: to make a video joking about the president being an ass/donkey. They face 16 years in prison.
      Now, they will have to put in jail some 10 million people, including kids. We all think, with enough evidence, that he is an ass.

      Maybe this is the solution: invading other countries. Since their financial stability is threatened, they might react somehow.
      I know what you are saying about putting people in jail for joking. We had the same troubles during the comunist period. An innocent joke about the "beloved" leader could put you in jail for years. Some have even disappeared.
      I don't know what can be done to stop this abuse. Maybe if I had the solution, I would have been somewhere else being able to help.
      I still believe that people should find some motivation and act. What will they do? Imprison the entire population? Being united is the key.
      I really hope something will happen soon and things will get better. It has to as so much suffering is not fair.
