Do you know body language? It's this thing where parts of your body besides your vocal chords and lungs can express intent and emotion, and in games with attention to detail in cutscenes, it comes through. Watch Kerrigan's smug smirk as she apologizes. Sarcasm.

I believe she DID regret Lassara's death, just not in the same way. After all, she didn't have this problem with the roach and baneling evolution missions when dealing with the Protoss. Those too could come into play in LotV.

Her body language says otherwise. Belief is irrelevant when looking at facts.

To me the tone of her voice showed otherwise.

[The_Blade]

Lassara gave her the same speech Warfield did. However, Protoss are killers as much as she is. The Dominion is too. Both were killed for being hypocrites.

Everything she did before knowing Raynor was alive was done to honor his memory. The only person who can question her innocence as a war criminal is Raynor.

[Turalyon]

How is she consistent?

He said lack of continuity, not consistency. There is a difference. Something that is continuous can have select moments within that continuity be inconsistent with each other.

The only person who can question her innocence as a war criminal is Raynor.

Huh? I (or any other third party really) can do a better job of questioning Kerrigan's innocence than Raynor. Afterall, when it comes to Kerrigan, Raynor is not exactly the most impartial person around.

Like razing the industrial worlds? If she told Raynor that on the Moros he would have told her that she was supposed to be better than that

Not quite. The Zerg are a swarm of what essentially amounts to drones directed by a higher power bent on domination. The death of a Zerg is akin to slaying a rabid dog. Killing a Protoss or Terran is tantamount to murder. I don't see how Kerrigan doesn't understand the distinction when conversing with Lassara.

This is because as Kerrigan saw it, no one else has ever seen the swarm in that light. To THEM, the swarm is nothing but a bunch of animals who only understand killing (which obviously is mostly true). To Kerrigan, there's more to it than that.

Unfortunately, so far she has not yet demonstrated this. Sure we saw exceptions in "Convinction", but the Protoss wouldn't know that.

And even if they did, they would merely interpret this as Kerrigan knew Raynor was the only one left who just might still listen to her after all that's happened and she needs to use him as a pawn again.

I can easily see Artanis giving Raynor just that response if he told him about what happened on the Moros. Artanis would simply say that Kerrigan knew there was NO possible way she could give the same speech like in BW and expect Raynor to fall for that trick again, so she had to come up with a different approach, and THAT was why she gave him the chance to kill her.

the answer is very simple, just want to be right and take any justification, I have seen many discussions on that side obviously wrong but still cling to any pretext to maintain the aura of: I'm okay you're wrong

every zerg only has the value of each cell in a multicellular organism, they are valuable as part of a whole
