You haven't asked me to do that. You've asked me to enter a war and get slaughtered on the frontlines.

I think you fail to realize how big this actually is. Eventually, you'll be dragged in whether you want it or not. If you want to think about it negatively, you either die alongside your friends trying your best to save existence, or you buy some time, only to be eventually slaughtered  as you say, regardless. Or, if you want to think about it positively, you'll save existence alongside your friends as you have before, allowing yourself an opportunity of peace once again.
