They’ve been happily killing each other for a thousand years. The only difference is they now have modern weapons (which their primitive culture could have never developed) and that allows them to be a threat to not only themselves but the rest of us. That means there is an element of cultural genocide / murder / suicide. Yer gonna need a bigger dictionary.
