I think his statement is talking about people, factions, and sides. Not abstract concepts like "murder" or "eating babies".

So it's not that he's saying we need to defend the balance with evil; rather, we should defend the balance with the people we see as evil. Because their side sees us as evil, and unless we seek balance, the only solutions are extermination of one side or the other, or eternal war.
