If your strongest allies wouldn't do so, who would?Actually, IIRC the first season hinged on a revenge plot for an assassination mission that Jack led under the sanction of David Palmer. Although the target was a real monster (we're led to believe), I'm not sure I can get behind assassination as being other than an evil action either.I don't believe it has. I suspect that the answer is probably 'yes', but only assuming that the action doesn't actively harm American interests. Of course, most of the second season followed Jack's attempts to find proof three small nations didn't attack the US, thus saving the US from invading. I don't think the projected US losses were too great in that instance, although I might be wrong.I have a problem picturing a ravening horde of Celestials standing ready to lay waste to a drow city in that manner <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" />Actually, for a slightly different example I don't, but that's hitting on one of the more uncomfortable aspects of my religion, so fortunately I can't comment here. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /></blockquote>
