An evil can be used for justice.
And, an evil thing doesn't have to be an *immoral* thing. There's a difference.
For example, if a man has a sucking chest wound, and the only way to restore his breathing is to puncture his lung and insert a bic pen into it, that's a necessary evil, but it's not immoral.
