I'm disappointed now, because I'd never thought of a Garak vs. Sloan confrontation and now I realise that would have been amazing. Although Garak would have to win.
Because if the Federation uses exactly the same methods as their enemies, as Bashir asks at the end of the episode, what makes them any better? End of moral superiority.
I completely agree, and I also got a bit of a kick out of realising that the Federation was at it's core really no different to the other societies we've seen in Trek. However I do have one question, in all the Section 31 episodes I don't remember seeing a non-human member, is that me or is it safe to assume that Section 31 is run purely by humans to protect Earth from the aliens?
*Bounces* Yay! In The Pale Moonlight All I can say is, ditto.
Although I think Dax would have understood why he took the course of action that he did just like she approved in For The Uniform.
Whenever I think of The Valiant I'm reminded of Nog's final words in that episode, "He was a good man, but he was a bad captain."
For a second in Time's Orphan I thought we were going to get a prolonged arc where Wild Molly would adapt to life back on the station, but perhaps it's for the best that she was changed back.

Sorry for the long post.
P.S. Love the icon.
