It's all about where you place your efforts

In Iraq the Sunni's and Shiites are blowing up each others holy shrines, killing each other by decapatation. While up in space the US, Russia, Japan and the ESA are working together on the International Space Station trying to fix a problem with a computer that helps maintain the orientation of the ISS and regulate the oxygen. So what is a better use of your time? Cooperating to take humanity into the last frontier or killing each other? I'll let you decide. For me I want to be on the International Space Station fixing the computer rather than down here in Kuwait designing computer and communications systems.
