I believe this is part of the "don't make the good the enemy of the perfect" thing. Because we're not good in all ways it is assumed that everything we do is for evil. You see it even some of the responses to my post - that we're only providing support because it fuels our military industry profits. And to be honest, that is probably true. But like it's still doing the right thing, even if it's for the wrong reasons.
