There is a difference between right and wrong. Murdering people is wrong... in every situation.

You're right, it never is ok to murder someone.
Never ok to murder someone. Never. So a man rushing at you with a knife ready to kill you isn't going to be shot because of your ethics. Oh wait...
Ethics just changed. Now it's ok if it means you don't die right. If there's a little kid that you see about to blow your house up killing your family, what do you do? Oh wait. Ethics just changed.
But you tell me, when the two choices are let one baby live and millions die or one baby die and millions live what would you choose? You have only two choices. Not fantasy land. Two choices. Pick one.
Is it ok to murder the millions just so you don't hurt the cute little baby? Or is long term murder causing suffering and slow deaths not really murder? Please enlighten us oh Buddha.
