I would say yes because "need" is subjective. Especially in the context of a "need" for "order". During the dawn of our country slavery served a "need". For modern America to exist the Native American peoples and way of life "needed" to be eradicated. For the order of Germany and the Aryan way of life to continue the Jews "needed" to be exterminated. To protect our nation in times of war we "need" to place members of foreign decent into concentration camps. In order to win the war against terrorism we "need" to topple all authoritarian regimes. For the safety and order of Islamic society, America "needs" to be destroyed. Do I need to go on or is it clear yet how what is needed to maintain order is always subject to the desires of those with power and often far beyond cruel.
