No, Mari is right. It's absurd to judge the denizens of Mordor by a Gondorean morality! It is altogether a different culture, a different reality they live. Ideas and moral codes are meaningless divorced from the cultural context in which they arise. What is fair in Mordor is foul in Gondor, and vice versa, and to impose our Gondorean notions of right and wrong is a great crime! Such antiquated notions should have died decades ago! I protest this imperialist policy of the Master of Fine Arts...err...the Minister of Foreign Affairs!
