As for morality, I would not mind if the government set up a bordello targeting terrorists and their friends as customers, and then bugged the place like crazy. Sometimes morality is not as important as survival. Even then, any immoral undertaking done to protect us should be of limited duration, so that it does not become an institution.
No sir. No and a thousand times no. If we compromise our morality in order to survive, what do we have left when we do survive?
