Years before Harvest, the Insurrectionists detonated a high-yield nuclear weapon in the Haven arcology as part of a pattern of escalating terrorist attacks. It killed two million, injured over eight million more, and at least that many deaths occurred over the next decades as the result of radiation sickness and untreatable cancers caused by fallout, with a corresponding sharp spike in birth defects projected to last generations.

An Insurrectionist future would have repeated that pattern across a hundred worlds. SPARTAN-II was to prevent that future from happening. If you want to stand on the graves of millions and preach, fine, but I don't have to sit around and listen to it.

[She's not denying she's from a Crapsack World, she just objects to singling out the SPARTAN Project.

Well, SPARTAN-II. Trash SPARTAN-III all you want.]
