[Again, Luke silently bears it, calm, cool, and collected.]
Perhaps it's our short lives. I don't know about that. I'm human, and I can only speak from what I know. But putting aside emotions and trying to build a better future is exactly why the Rebellion rose up in the first place. And why others have. I don't know about your world, and I don't like using such blanket terms, but the people who've caused these wars, the Sith, are truly evil beings. They're consumed by their own lust for power, and they've stopped at nothing, time and time again, to take control over the entire galaxy.
That, Knives, is something the Jedi will not allow. They are our dark mirror, our opposite, and for the last thirty years they've ruled my galaxy. I won't bore you with the details, but when they're purging entire sentient races from existence and destroying planets with billions of lives on them, it goes beyond hatred and fear. It comes down to right and wrong.
Maybe we'll learn a better way in the future, but for my people there's only so many options when it comes down to fight or die.
[Action with a pair of pears]
