Whats the lives of a couple million if you can save untold billions in the future? The real paradox is when he learns through his own personal life and experience that it is impossible everyone can be saved but yet he wants to save everyone through the grail forever. Oh the irony of his beliefs. He is an idealist pretending to be a pragmatist.

No offense, but I can only conclude you have quite a tunnel vision regarding Kiritsugu.
If he -really- didn't care about human life, he wouldn't even have such goal to begin with. Furthermore, he wouldn't even care making an arson warning to evacuate the building, which ultimately allowed Kayneth to be prepared.
Also, it is exactly because you can't save everyone that he bets everything on this war: the holy grail is to be said to grant any wish, and the fact it can materialize heroic spirit of such caliber is quite enough in term of proof, along with how the 3 main families are giving their all to reach it.
You are mixing up real life cirmcunstances with the fictional ones surrounding kiritsugu.
