Simply because I was watching an episode from the original series at the weekend, where the Enterprise is on a diplomatic to a world that - unknown to them - is at war with another close planet. The different being, instead of actual warfare by weapons, computers simply designate that a target has been hit, and for people in the area to report to a disintegration chamber.
Kirk has no problem at all interfering with this, in order to try and create peace between the warring planets.
No sign of the Prime Directive. |
I just found out that the name of the episode where they first introduced the Prime Directive was "The Return of the Archons".
