Star Trek: Deep Space Nine/Headscratchers: Difference between revisions

Line 265:
**** That guaranteed execution might be part of why the Federation would have been reluctant to hand him over to the Bajorans...
** There's also a big difference between what we saw of Dukat, as viewers, and how much the Federation knows. We know that he was actually pretty restrained because we saw it happen, but the Federation would realistically need to carry out an investigation to sort things out, which is what they were doing now that they had him in custody. Plus, I'm sure "investigating" Dukat's role in the Dominion War is, in part, a way of trying to get him to cooperate and provide them with valuable intelligence.
** '''Dukat''' claims he was very restrained and attempting to help the Bajorans. Dukat is not a trustworthy source of information on Dukat, as by [[Word of God]] he's a delusional narcissist who convinces himself he's the hero. (Remember, he eventually admits that he actually ''hated'' the Bajorans and wishes that he'd, quote, "killed them all". He still wanted them to love him despite this, showing just how bad his narcissism was, he wanted even the people he despised and considered worthless to love him.) Also in ''Duet'' Kira was the one investigating a war criminal because the (alleged) war criminal was arrested by a Bajoran security officer on a Bajoran station for crimes committed on Bajor, whereas Dukat was apparently apprehended by the Federation and was going to be investigated for his crimes in both the Occupation in general and probably other matters related to it.
