There is no value in it. Yea,  know, that sounds mean and therefore offends your sensibilities.

There is no value in staying in that broken region of the world. It's up to them to fix their problems and if their solution is wide scale genocide... let it happen.. it's not our responsibility. It's theirs.

We had our wide scale genocide already in the Native Americans... no one punished us for it.
