Brusaw says that killing him won\\\'t stop the kids from carrying out their last commandments (in issue 72), but Huntress says \\\"See, I figure when you\\\'re *gone*, your hold over those kids *ends*\\\" in issue 73. She might be wrong, but it\\\'s clear that she thinks killing him will work. She also says \\\"... I\\\'m not going to let him turn this compound into the next cult massacre.\\\" shortly before her crossbow jams. So it\\\'s clear that Huntress believes that killing him will stop the bombs, and this is the main reason she is going to kill him. It\\\'s absolutely not a case of a meaningless execution that would accomplish nothing.

Whether or not it actually will save the kids or not is beside the point, because Huntress believes it will, but it\\\'s worth noting that Brusaw doesn\\\'t seem to understand his own powers, saying that the kids returned the the cult of their own free will, and we\\\'ve seen that the cultists are still capable of independent decision making, such as when Peter decides to get out of dodge (and Tom shoots him), and he has no way of knowing what will happen when he dies, so she might be right.
