Good job, tech will makes us free. Besides, I'm pretty sure that if geeks were in charge of both Israel and Palestine, they would just solve their differences on a PvP server, end of story :)
If anything, tech is quickly turning this world into a pile of poo with no space for real humans. Teaching people how to write code won't do shit to help them; this is all about making sure there's desperately cheap labor around to fix bugs tomorrow.
