After the Tribble episode I was shocked to see another time travel episode but I was wrong. I also noted that key cast members like O'Brien and Major Kira were missing.
It wasn't time travel it was just mental projections. Kira wasn't missing, she was being held in reserve for a very dramatic ending.
This is a bit more reality than most can stand. Odo could never have appeased both sides AND stayed alive without some innocent blood being shed. Didn't Kai Wenn (sp?) sacrifice her own son to help the Bajoran resistance? Didn't the UK sacrifice their own ships to prevent the Germans from knowing they had broken the code?
It's messy.
