Best and Worst Treatment of Ethical Dilemmas

[Oddish]

My only issue with "In the Pale Moonlight" had nothing to do with the morality of Sisko's actions. It was that Sisko was doing it. Sisko was a shipbuilder, station administrator, and religious icon... not a spy.

True. It was Vreenak, his four guards, and Tolar.

6 people to save billions. Still a great bargain.

And however many Romulans died who might not have died otherwise (since we have no way of knowing how the war really would have played out if the events of this episode hadn't occurred).

Extrapolating, and not intending to be taken too seriously, for all we know the events that Sisko instigated here were what laid the groundwork for Shinzon's coup, Data's death, and could even have influenced how things played out when Romulus needed to be evacuated.
