Allowing a mass murderer to continue after killing five to seven million of his powerless subjects can never be right. I'll agree that the bulk of daily governmental decisions aren't so simple - affirmative action? taxation? flag burning? - all subject to much more complex and subjective parsing. But to allow SH to continue? To ignore a Rwanda as it happens? No. These are simple. For these, we all know the moral response. If we have disagreements, they are more towards the "but can we afford to, or do we want to, be moral in this instance?" That's a very different debate than the moral one.
