The Watchmen conundrum, yes or no?

Is it better for 30 million people around the world, to be snuffed out of existence in order to prevent the most likely outcome of everyone dying, if nothing is done.

And would a person who decided that be a hero or a villain in your eyes? :)

He would be a hero in the truest sense of the word: literally no one would appreciate what he did in yet the benefit would be undeniable.

Hell I'd even curse his name to my last days. But that wouldnt change the fact that he saved more than he destroyed.

@Eternity I agree, and i thought he was in the movie as well, even if most didn't. The hardest choices are often the most heroic for good reason.
