Its a yes/no question. After your "yes" or "no" we can proceed and discuss details, but first we need a clear answer.
Because you need to know the difference between a war and a genocide.
If two sides are on equal footing, and are fighting. Then its a war, not a genocide.
If authorities have all the power, and decide to murder people who cant defend themselves? Then thats a genocide.
Clear as mud, that was. Since you clearly need a hint as to whether genocide is justifiable in an existential war, the answer isn’t ‘yes’.
