The lesser-evil argument seems to be of that class which one either finds persuasive or one doesn't, for reasons not always clear even to oneself. I belong to the camp of the deeply unpersuaded and probably unpersuadable, myself. But everything that can be said on the subject has been said, a thousand times on this list alone, and I never heard of anybody being converted from one side of the question to the other.
