Other Enemies
Giselians, Sol-3, and the end of the untouched oasis

fighting against a virus is fighting a biological enemy; fighting against the Russians, the Chinese, or the terrorists is fighting a cultural enemy. But fighting against the Giselians is fighting both of them, with the difference we know nothing about their culture or civilization, nor about their biology.

By now we know the descendants of these invaders who fall behind the leading edge retain their ancestor’s preferences. These descendants focus on pursuing the invasion wave as quickly as possible, devastating whatever civilization they may encounter along their path, rather than staying behind to build stable long-lasting civilizations.

You simply don't ask the Ebola virus why it behaves the way it does. You just fight it. Asking Giselians why they do what they do is as stupid as asking the Ebola virus why does it infect you.
