When my niece Kelly was four years old, the family took her to my nephew's high school football game.
She didn't understand much of what was going on, but she asked questions.
"My brother's team is the blue team, right?"
"Yes Kelly," grandpa nodded distractedly.
She thought about this.
"The blue team is the good team right?"
"Yes Kelly," grandpa nodded.
"The red is the bad team right?"
"Yes Kelly," grandpa nodded.
She pondered this. Then she had an epiphany. Her face lit up.
"We should kill them! It would be fun!"

Exactly this one.
I kinda like the three criteria. Only a four-year-old would state them plainly without dressing them up in wordist Principles.
Which side is my blood relation on?
No blood relation involved, then we don't even CONSIDER the next two questions.
Is my blood relation doing right?
Is his opponent doing wrong?
Kill them!
"If an angry bigot assumes this bountiful cause of Abolition, and comes to me with his last news from Barbados, why should I not say to him, 'Go love thy infant; love thy wood-chopper: be good-natured and modest; have that grace; and never varnish your hard, uncharitable ambition with this incredible tenderness for black folk a thousand miles off. Thy love afar is spite at home.'"
-- Ralph Waldo Emerson, Self-Reliance

How revealing of your mindset.
The (psychotic) solution to every conflict between different peoples - just kill them. Who cares if they have lives, desires, loves, and dreams - they are "auslanders" (Germanic - "auslander" translates as "outlander" or "stranger") so just kill them.
Or in the immortal words of Arlo Guthrie: "...KILL, KILL, KILL, KILL, ...".
"“Believe nothing merely because you have been told it. Do not believe what your teacher tells you merely out of respect for the teacher. But whatsoever, after due examination and analysis, you find to be kind, conducive to the good, the benefit, the welfare of all beings - that doctrine believe and cling to, and take it as your guide.” ~ Gautama Siddhartha — The Buddha

Any sufficiently advanced stupidity is indistinguishable from evil. ~ Unk (Paraphrase of Clarke's 3rd Law: "Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.")
