Humans have value. If not to the planet, at least within their own group.

Cog, I am amazed you and I are agreeing on something. I happen to foremost care about humans above and beyond other species.

Moved earth and heaven, that which we are, we are;
One equal temper of heroic hearts,
Made weak by time and fate, but strong in will
To strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield.

Sadly it has been that way since war was invented and will stay that way so long as war exists. Letting people use this harsh reality of life be a tool of manipulation is not wise. Any time someone tells you 'do it, for the children' you better check the cost to the children already living in your neighborhood/state/country because there ain't no such thing as a free lunch.
