So it's a question of power, not survival. Power over others that is not always legitimate.

I agree. But, those who grab it don't care. They just want others to obey the laws they impose.
That's why clandestine organizations want to stay secretive: they don't want anyone to pass judgment on their immoral, unethical actions.
And, again, I draw a distinction between intelligence gathering, which I feel is legitimate,and the intelligence services' operating outside the laws of humanity (such as committing murder and spreading anarchy).

yeah i would beacuse in my opinion if the genocide of 1 race means that countless others say 20 survive then is that not a small price to pay ? yeah it means that a lot of peapol will die
Starfleet Charter, Article 14, Section 31, which allowed for extraordinary measures to be taken in times of extreme threat
id say that a dominion invasion of the federation would be an extreme threat everybody knew this and who are the leaders of the dominion the founders and without them the dominion would crumble and section 31 saw an opportunity two take them out so they took it
would'nt you ?

I didnt like the idea of section in the begining(what would gene thought of this idea?)the idea that they decide to comit genocide(by giving the founders the virus to protect the federation)ok,they were thinking of protecting the alpha quadrant,if they conceded in wiping out the founders,they would the same thing to any species they find that is a threat to the federation.
