Eh, thinking about this again an LJ's response made me realize this has nothing to do with rights but ethics.

I agree with basically everything on ZenGum's response.. I made it an island because this scenario actually happened in real life (kind of, I changed two things) and also because by choosing to let everyone die you will destroy the future for a countless amount of generations.

Yep, nothing like dying to put a damper on the old future.
