No, God does the right thing because one of his attributes is that he is morally perfect. Being an attribute of God, there is no choice to be made (it is necessarily so), so no circular reasoning or Euthyphro dilemma.
Jesus, arguing with this guy is like trying to force water to ignore gravity and go up hill. He has his mind made up you are not going to change it.
He has told you that "...one of his (God's) attributes is that he is morally perfect." so anything he does or causes is by definition good, acceptable, "necessarily so". You can't argue with that kind of "logic". It just proves that Gods love requires him to kill, mutilate, and direct others to do the same. Kill them all, do not let any human, regardless of age or physical condition, live, that'll show them how much I love them (an odd sort of love it seems to me).
