Should we discard achievements made by unlikable people?

RE: Should we discard achievements made by unlikable people?
Achievements are so different from actions.

For example, imagine yourself leading an army to face the Nazis. Underestimate their achievements in war, and the genius inventions they take with them to battle, and you'll end up defeated and so dead.

You can hate them, despise them, or even judge them, but in war they were good. Take the achievemnt off; and you're a lousy tactician.

That's why Richard the Lion Heart gave Saladin a gift once, and Saladin brought him a horse in a battle that Richard lost his horse in.

Acknowledging achievements is so just; despising the wrongdoers is also so just.
"Despise". Do not "Discard".

You don't have the right to discard. and if you do that, I'll assure failure to you, and my severe disrespect.
