What are the odds that two species at roughly equal levels of development would meet in space and learn to trust each other?
Mini-Review (click to view--possible spoilers)
Pro: In just 1,000 words, the story develops the background for a genocide and makes it real enough to hurt. We're not even sure if human beings are committing the genocide or if we're the victims of it. It packs a big punch, and it lingers.
Con: This isn't actually a story, in the usual sense. No characters, no dialogue, etc.

I agree with the rating and the comments. For a very short piece it is effective.
