That's actually a good comparison, but I actually admire Vibhishan, while have a rich disdain for the likes of Bheeshma, who could have still been true to the spirit of his vow to Satyavati's father by supporting the Pandavas, who too were her descendants. Drona, Karna & Shalya I understand - Drona was indebted to Dhritarashtra, and Karna & Shalya to Duryodhan. But despite understanding where they were coming from, I still don't like or admire any of them.

Since they knew that they were fighting in the cause of adharma, they should have gotten themselves downed on day 1 itself, instead of massacring thousands of soldiers every day. They'd have fulfilled their debts, w/o doing damage to the cause of dharam. If you notice, 90% of the major warriors on the Pandava side were killed by either Drona or Ashwatthama: if Drona had been killed on day 1 by Dhriistadyumna, that would have spared most of them. Karna could have joined on day 2 and gotten killed. Within 5 days, that war could have been over w/ a more decisive Pandava victory, w/ far fewer causalities.

I have another question.. i hope someone has the answer.Kalki will arrive at the end of the kaliyug and marry padma..have 2 children. Which country will he be born and live? What religion willl he practice..is it the vedic religion?? He will save the people who still pratice the hindoe religion that would be very few. With then he will start the Satyayug..am a right guys??

Here are some of the things that were discussed about Kalki Avatar. Actually, much later, in that same thread, I believe there is more, but one would have to look for it. You can see that, and towards the latter part of that thread, there is more.
