She's not a brazen liar, but she's good at deluding herself. Hence the "subconsciously" bit I added. At any rate, you're free to dismiss an explicit piece of the comic that clearly shows Miko being instructed to not kill the Order unless strictly necessary, but then there's not much of a point in arguing if canon goes out of the window.
