Harry always expects his people to be strong enough to take it, not realizing that not everyone is like him, maybe now faced with what happened to Lucas, it will make him realize, although I doubt it. Harry Pearce didn't try hard enough to save Lucas, he will always be about the service. He sacrificed innocent lives for the greater good, his agents for the greater good, so what's two more lives with Maya and Lucas.

Ahh, I see. Well yeah, that makes sense. The ends always justify the means for Harry. That's why he needs Ruth, to remind him that "people aren't just chess pieces".

It's very sad really. Harry is almost an embodiment of the terrorists he fights. At the end of the day, they're all fighting for 'the greater good', no matter who gets caught up in the process. As Kachimov said "there will always be another courageous young man to take his place".
