A few comments:
While watching MahaBharath on TV, I had rooted strongly for Karna. Even though everyone knew his fate. I still rooted for him.
Now to the main point: IMVVHO, Dharma may be about right or righteousness from a state's POV but from an individual POV Dharma is different for everyone.
For example, Karna knew he was on the wrong side of Dharma, yet he chose to sta on that side. I think this is because it was his Dharma to support his friend.
Moving on, Yudh is about protecting Dharma........whether the yudh is fought justly or unjustly is not important.
Over n' out!
