Even though the buggers didn’t understand that they were hurting people, humans didn’t realize this. However, the xenocide of the buggers was inevitable. Wiping out the entire population was not necessary. ![]() Also, just because some of the buggers wanted to attack humans, it doesn’t mean all of them wanted to. I didn’t want to kill anybody! I’m not a killer! You didn’t want me, you wanted Peter, but you made me do it, you tricked me into it!’” (Card 297). The text stated, “‘I didn’t want to kill them all. Ender thought it was just a simulation, and if he had known it was real, he would have acted differently. Even in Ender’s Game, Ender really hadn’t meant to kill all of the buggers.

No, genocide and xenocide are never justified. He was ashamed at what he had done, and finally believed that he was a killer. Ender didn’t want to kill the buggers, but he was tricked into it. I didn’t want to kill anybody! I’m not a killer! You didn’t want me, you bastards, you wanted Peter, but you made me do it, you tricked me into it!’ He was crying. The text states, “Ender grabbed Mazer’s uniform and hung onto it, pulling him down so they were face to face. They were only trying to figure out how the humans work and interact with each other. ![]() ![]() We think this because the buggers were never going to attack a third time. We think that xenocide of the buggers could have been avoided. If we got attacked a third time, and even with a strategy genius like Ender, we wouldn’t be able to survive a third invasion. The reason we think this is because everyone believed that the buggers were going to attack a third time. We believe that the killing of an entire race was actually justified, and done for a good reason.
