See, it is all about control. controlling the very definition of what is human in this case. They desire to control "human life as we know it"
Its not along the lines of difference between committing genocide and saving the human race.. Saving the human race could be the excuse or reason for committing genocide, just as real world examples of past weren't necessarily about committing genocide for genocides sake, but that genocide was the means to an end. I understand that thats their belief, but them insinuating that their belief is is lthe law of the land only further illustrates that it is a control issue.

Actually when you put it that way I see what your talking about now; them thinking that their interperetation of humanity is better, thing is I agree with them.

and that brings me back to my original point in this thread today.
humanity is not just in genetics, but is also defined through acts of sympathy and bennevolance.
not to get all "Last Mimzy" but, one could argue that genetically the encalve as a whole may be closer to what a pre-war human was
but at the same time, they have been culturally and mentally polluted, their human spirit mutated, making them just as non-human as those they would destroy.

I do not agree that they are any better.
They work with SCIENCE! to destroy all other humans , pure bred or not, mainland USA or anywhere else on the globe- unless they are enclave they are not fit to survive.
Where is that SCIENCE! to attempt to see if there are other pure breds (if geneics are the biggest issue) that they can unite with? where is that SCIENCE! in attempting to save their fellow human beings, mutated or not?

as i said, they lost their humanity.
