twincityhackerI was thinking about this the other day, about the past versions of the Doctor and his choices and the Time War.
Does the Doctor blame himself for the Time War? For being moral in refusing to commit genocide when the Daleks where first starting out, does he feel that he condemn his people - that never treated him well true, but did not deserve what happened to them in the end - and trillions of other beings to death, destabilizing the timelines, and all the other nasty things that is said to be repercussions of the Time War?
If so, I think this self-blame is why he's so quick to genocide and quick to met out such heavy punishments. He no longer sees the point of being restrained, as death is the only solution to prevent more harm to more people.
