Best Answer

The reason for the "Mountain Meadow Massacre" can be summarized in two words, "fear" and "hatred". The justification behind the attack had to have been motivated by these extremely powerful emotions. One would have had to walked in the shoes of the attackers to understand their rational, but in reviewing the atrocities that they had been subjected to since the begining of the LDS church, the mind does not have to wonder very far to find cause for fear and hate.
