This reminds me of the recent US railroad strike which almost happened. Whenever goods are prevented from going from point A to point B, economies collapse quickly. Granted this pipeline was not transporting anything at the time, but it has been a wake-up call (I hope): Pipes, transmission lines, tracks. Humans need free-flowing transportation.

Unfortunately, you can expect the governments on both sides of this to wage war to "protect" such free-flowing transportation, principally by blowing up the other side's free flowing transportation.
Such is the level of thinking that passes for leadership in government circles these days.
Please pardon my being picky, but I don't buy the fairy dust of "leadership." People don't need leaders. Rather they need to stop being followers. Government needs "good" people for sure, but perhaps that is a Catch-22.
This is similar to my being picky about conflating "anarchy" with "chaos."

That they do.

No worries. I'm actually not that far behind you in that regard.

Then and now, God's Law has always been sufficient. It's Man's laws that muck everything up.
