There might be another argument for isolationism: humility, or at least a recognition of our own limitations. Sometimes barging in on a problem with the best of intentions does nothing helpful.
Ernesto Sirolli gave a TED talk about humanitarian aid, and how little good it does, and how it can even harm. To my knowledge, it is in video format only, so I can't easily share it. His solution was to "shut up and listen." Be ready to give to those who really want help, especially those who have a passion for doing something productive (i.e. feed the entrepreneurial spirit), but otherwise stay out of the way.
So I would hesitate to look down on those who seem to be isolationist. They may have already tried the altruistic road.
As for the answer to division by zero, it is undefined.
Wikipedia states it more clearly:
"In mathematics, division by zero is division where the divisor (denominator) is zero. Such a division can be formally expressed as a/0 where a is the dividend (numerator). In ordinary arithmetic, the expression has no meaning, as there is no number which, multiplied by 0, gives a (assuming a≠0), and so division by zero is undefined. Since any number multiplied by zero is zero, the expression 0/0 has no defined value and is called an indeterminate form."
Lacuna Coil was formed in 1994 and they are from Milan Italy. They have sold over 2 million albums. Any other ?'s please feel free to ask. I can Google your ?'s instantly on my phone and reply in less than a second.

Transcribed your poem. Sad one ...
What did break your heart?
I really liked this poem of yours. First, I found it a little strange... but in the end it all comes together. Smartly done :)
