I keep wondering if I'm the only person who was watching Angel explain his New Deal to the crew and all the while wondering,
"But he's still evil! He killed Aragorn who 'held him as a brother'! And he's not telling them this! That seems pretty damn evil to me! Don't trust him guys!"

Giles taking out a mostly-innocent because he is a threat to other innocents (ALL other innocents) is different than killing a comerade as an acceptable sacrifice.
I do see how Dagon might have agreed to sacrifice himself for the cause, but that's not something other people get to decide for you. No no no no no. It was an evil act. Then again, he seems to be willing to do a lot of evil to get in with the other evilers to blow everyone up.
No no no no. Not acceptable. Does not compute in brain.
Then again, Angel's hardly the nicest person in the world or the most compassionate.
