A Response To The ResponseFor those who missed it.
There is a fine line between hero and villain, (thanks jojo600) the definition is really in the eyes of the beholder. After some more though, re-watching all of RECON, and reading everybody's responses, it seems that there is no hero or villain that I can pick out. Washington is a soldier who has his orders and like every good soldier will carry out those orders. (wash being the protagonist in recon) The Meta is driven by the A.I.'s and the original spirit of the order's given to Agent Maine, and he will answer that drive. (the meta being the antagonist in recon) The Chairman and the Director are simply men trying to what they think is right, by them, (recon story drivers and fillers) The RvB players seem to be there to give there perspective on the whole thing (they make the recon totally awesome by being there)
Now having said that, I don't think the Meta is a "mindless killer." The U.S. Army Special Forces are not mindless killers, but if ordered to kill to accomplish, or to protect, the mission, they will without question. I feel that the Meta is doing just that, getting rid who stand in his way of accomplishing his mission. When you look at it, Wash has killed too. Being from Command he could have ordered the pilot of the Hornet in Episode 13 to stand down. But he didn't because he was trespassing in a secure location. Not only was he protecting himself, he was protecting everyone around him.
I feel that the Chairman understands that Freelancers will be killed. With someone that high up in any organization, exceptable loss is well just that, exceptable. As long as the mission get accomplished, some people view exceptable loss a minor inconvenience. I am not saying that it is right morally, but in there minds it is. Now the Director on the other hand, his view of exceptable loss seems to be anything that is not his freelancers or the A.I.'s He feels he is right in everything and nothing is going to change his mind, nothing.
Any Thoughts?

wash and the meta obviously have hidden agenda's, and who they're working for we don't know (though suspected the director and chairman respectivelly)
i am really anticipating chapter 19 for some more answers.
