I love Adam's reasoning that if you can even comtemplate doing it, then you're probably capable of it.

I don't have a problem about them being nervous about actually carrying out the assassination perse, it's more about Zoe's initial reaction when she said they were nowhere near their rights to kill him. The guy was a clear and present danger, and I thought that reaction from an experienced spy bordered on naive.
