Excellent video. We have the tech and skill to reconstruct reality, at the same time we do not possess the skill to let reason rule critical parts of our (here: Beirut's) infrastructure. As humankind, we are probably closer than ever to hassle free life and we will nevertheless go down skirmishing and fighting.
