I’m referring to their DS9 incarnation, not the new show.

I kinda come down on the side of space KGB.

Most of the actions they did, was just standard spycraft that you would see in any war, and the dominion war was as brutal as you could get.

The worst action you could say that Sloan and section 31 attempted, was trying to genocide the founders via that genetic virus plot. Probably okay because the founders were all collectively involved (excepting Odo) in brutal space imperialism, subjecting the entire delta and alpha quadrants to subjugation and enslavement from their home planet, that was the target of the virus.

    lol true, section 31 shouldn’t even be comparable to the CIA or MI6, who have absolutely no scruples.

      It should also be noted that Section 31 is interested merely in the survival of the Federation and its people. Morally grey methods or not, it’s entirely NOT like the CIA ideologically, that’s the more important part. It is not imperialist and does not attempt to subjugate unrelated nations and make them subservient to the Federation’s interests. If you don’t threaten the survival of Federation, Section 31 has no interest in you, which can’t be said for the CIA or MI6.

        Senator Kimara Cretak says hi. Section 31 absolutely is imperialist, they put a handpicked traitor in one of the highest positions of power of a rival government while ensuring that a by all accounts decent woman was at bare minimum getting life inprisonment in probably rather unpleasant conditions, if not just execution.
