Exactly. Interesting story! One of the best switcharoos in history, when Haman was sucking up to the king for recognition for himself, and the king actually meant it for Mordecai!


King: "Oh, that sounds great! Go ahead and do it for Mordecai!"

Haman: *Biggest jaw drop in history*


Can you just picture the enthusiasm with which Haman said his little line praising Mordecai, as he led the parade thru the streets?


Also, I'd say that the cities of refuge would support the idea of self-defense being a different thing.
