This guy wiped out an entire race with a thought and your plan is to do what exactly?

It's like that scene in "The Dark Knight"

Lucius Fox : Let me get this straight, you think that your client, one of the wealthiest and most powerful men in the world, is secretly a vigilante, who spends his nights beating criminals to a pulp with his bare hands, and your plan is to blackmail this person?

[Reese's face falls and Fox smiles]

Lucius Fox : Good luck.

Me personally? I’m going to back away slowly without giving him my name.

To be fair Janeway wasn't around at the time, so they didn't have any examples of genocide to go off of.

Didn't Sisko wipe out a whole planet because fuck you Eddington?

He just made it uninhabitable by humans. Not exactly the same as wiping it out, but since it forced displacement of a whole planet, it was genocide.

I think genocide requires death

It doesn’t, according to the actual definition.
