The ending of your story reminds me of the ending of a certain fantasy series, in which the hero manages to successfully gain near-infinite power by using the Extremely Dangerous MacGuffin of Lots of Power, and uses it to create a parallel universe and banish the Bad Guys into it, so they won't be able to go around being Evil at good people any more. It's a damn shame the guy who got to use the MacGuffin was an Objectivist, though. :P
Yeah, Hirou didn't notice the Moral Dissonance...
I thought of the same series. The "evil" in the two is quite different, but it raises interesting questions as to what degree certain characters would have been justified if they had actually been right.
