The Ends Justify The Means
You have to break a few eggs to make an Omelette

And similar phrases are not only used to moraly justify atrocities, but are wielded rhetorically as a call to action instead of a moral argument. 

Whether a case of desperation, or of utilitarian ends, we take a look a this form of moral argumentation and see if it holds water.

1. The Argument is Incomplete. 
2. I struggles under any moral scrutiny
3. It only serves the short term.
