I am unsure they believe they are bent upon destroying the timeline.

From what I remember Miz Poppy telling my companion and I, they are intent upon seeing this planet fall, but they do this because their version of the TIMELINE.exe directs them to. She insisted that theirs was a superior version to ALASTAIR's.

This is, at least, what I remember her saying.
