Iarhen has just left Hobbiton.
Silmaril

Annihilation of life as we know it.

That would be Sauron's goal in these terms: conquering all life on M.E., ruling them. What life would that be if people under his dominion would not have a free life, as Eru wanted us to have (the reason why Eru told the Valar not to intervene directly on our lives).

Freedom of choice or any kind of freedom would be non existant under Sauron's rule. And although the end of life as we know it would not be Sauron's direct goal, it would be the necessary effect of his dominion.

Responses to your post, Sharku, shall be posted later...
