Who is most to be condemned?

A good movie that makes people unable to stop thinking after watching it. In the film, the terrorist Yusuf, the torturer H, and the female SWAT Brody, who is the most to be condemned?
Yusuf created a nuclear bomb to threaten the government, killing 53 people in the mall, and finally committed suicide, leaving a nuclear bomb about to explode. The poor and weak character who has been abused in the film only hates him and condemns him when he sees the people who have been bombed to death in the mall. But he is not threatening the government for personal gain. He demands religious equality. He loves peace. He loves his country and his religion. His request may be the request of many peaceful people now. Is this wrong? He loves his family and he can tolerate all kinds of abuse, but he gave up his belief in front of his children. If H threatens him with his children again, it is estimated that he will tell the whereabouts of the fourth nuclear bomb. Should we condemn such a person?
H is a person whose government allows him to override the law and morals in order to protect the national interest. His most terrifying method was to kill Yusuf's wife, making him believe that he would kill his two children. But it is he who takes on the heavy responsibility of protecting the survival of mankind. Countless civilians and children are protected by him, relying on him to use such evil deeds that ordinary people cannot carry out. Is H really willing to do this? In fact, he also hates doing this, but he knows that he can only deal with people like Yusuf who come out of the anti-terrorist force. He bears the condemnation and curse of all mankind, and sacrifices his own humanity in order to protect the faith of mankind. Should we condemn such a person?
Brody is an upright female special police officer who has a sense of responsibility and conforms to traditional moral concepts. It can be said that she is the incarnation of justice. She devoted herself to her work in order to maintain the peace of the world, so she has been single since she has no time to fall in love. In order to protect the freedom and equality of human rights and moral standards, she does not hesitate to contradict her "colleagues"-H. In the end, she also assumed the responsibility that Yusuf entrusted her to take care of her children, which showed the tenderness and motherhood of women. But because of her obstruction and her kindness, it indirectly led to the death of 53 civilians in the mall, and many others were injured. As a result, the remaining nuclear bomb explosions will kill tens of thousands of civilians. In fact, according to Yusuf's already collapsed mood at the time, as long as she didn't obstruct H, she would definitely be able to get the whereabouts of the fourth nuclear bomb. It was she who killed countless civilians and destroyed a city. Shouldn't she be condemned?
Brody saved 2 children, killed 53 civilians, killed civilians in one city, and destroyed a city; H killed a civilian and saved people in two cities, Yusuf killed 53 civilians People in a city destroy a city, but it is likely to save all mankind, promote world peace, reduce ethnic and religious conflicts, and bring the world into a new period of peace. According to this logical deduction, Brody is a selfish individualist and a murderer (compared by numbers), H is a national hero, and Yusuf is a world peace guardian.
Is this really the case? The people we want to condemn have become national heroes and world peace guards, but the people we want to praise have become selfish murderers?
If in reality the safety of all human beings is in danger, would you protect the lives of most people by torturing two innocent children or even killing them? Or let mankind go to extinction? I really don't know what I would do, rationally I would, emotionally I would not? How about you? what are you going to do?

    Die one and save a bunch?

    It can even be done at a lower cost, and capitalist countries love to fall into this kind of moral dilemma. It may be much easier to change to us.
