That is, when the victims are evil, treacherous, smelly, lazy and hairy subhumans??? Just like it was the case in 1915???
And the LORD hath given a commandment concerning thee, that no more of thy name be sown: out of the house of thy gods will I cut off the graven image and the molten image: I will make thy grave; for thou art vile. Nahum 1:14 Holy Bible

yes, only if your interests and the interest of your own people would be safe by taking that option.

Absolutely not.
And there is no race that is exclusively or even predominantly "evil, treacherous, smelly and lazy" and even if they were that would not make them "subhuman". And even if they were somehow "subhuman" that would not be a justification for genocide.
This is, by some considerable margin, the most evil question I've seen on Y/A.

Absolutely not. God is to do the judging. It is one thing for a human to punish a human for doing Earthly crimes, it is a whole other thing to punish for heavenly crimes. It clearly states in the verse that YOU have provided us that God will be the condemner not us. Genocide is wrong. And it sounds to me that you have personal hatred for those victims of 1915, because I know of no law that says you can murder people for being smelly, lazy, or hairy. If that was the case many men wouldn't live past puberty.

You are referring to the Armenian genocide of 1915? Sir, you are a foul human being. See, that's the funny thing about some Christians. They think that because they quote scripture and were dunked in water as a kid, they are immune from the awful eternal fate that they claim lies in wait for everyone else. Meanwhile they, for example, espouse genocide! See, I think that you'll have to attone for that more than I will for not believing a word of the Book of Revelations.

In the hypothetical, it's possible.
When an species is so inherently dangerous that no lesser means will suffice to offer protection from them. That's why genocide of certain diseases is acceptable.
But for people, based purely on differences in culture or race or religion, then no. And any religion based on tolerance and unconditional love should not even contemplating trying to wipe out an entire race or culture just because they are different.

Justified shmustified. There are only two species of mammals that would ever do such a thing, humans and chimpanzees. We're both descended from the same extinct ancestor who probably did the same thing. It's just human nature.

Why are you considering Armenians evil, treacherous, and lazy..
I thought the LORD also espoused loving all humans and waiting for HIM to judge them rather than you.

wtf. No, there is never a time genocide can be "justified." Genocide is, by definition, killing a group of people specifically because you don't like their religion or culture or the name with which they are labeled (people never ask to be born to a family of a certain religion or skin color or culture or amount of wealth).
And your "Lord," if "he" is who you say "he" is or even exists at all, should never condone such killing.
