What happens within atmosphere should remain within atmosphere. When we have a whole atmosphere to war in, why take the fight to space? It is like two federal states of a country trying to settle their water disputes on the streets of another country. That said, it is not the mistake of the one who follows the other. Rather, it is the mistake of the one who started it.
We don't want to look like a disunited planet to aliens do we? After all, within atmosphere, we fight as countries. But outside, we stand united as the earth itself. This should be the underlying tone of any future outer-space treaty.
Nationalism as a virtue may be a fine avocation for the 21st century. What we are going to need next is "Planetism".
