what are some of you guys's jobs?
You would really want to be in Iraq?
I don't you would.... It may be boring, but at lest you have no chances of being, killed, shot up, blown to hell, or whatever.

I imagine if we were pressed for land and development, we'd eventually get around to it. I think it'd be interesting to form a 100+ year plan of terraforming slowly and maybe work on it someday.

Yeah, part of the problem is fighting governments who starve their people to continue war. Part of the program should involve either toppling or reforming those countries and help them care for their own land.
