I was also describing to my friend here today that 'science' typically has things in reverse, yes - by examining the physical as if it is the starting point of the chain of manifestation, when it is the end.

Maybe the extra insight provided in Syria via the web would help in some cases, yes - though ultimately what is needed is a rapid evolution of emotions and thinking that has intent to heal, balance and evolve; otherwise the likelihood is that the old rage/terror and other unhealed emotions will continue to act out unconsciously - as they have been doing for aeons.
