I'm on the verge of finishing Splinter Cell: Double Agent (got distracted by NHL and MLB for a while), and I've really enjoyed this game. I think SC is probably my favorite game series ever.
I love the choice aspect of Double Agent, and I hope it's even more prominent in the next incarnation.
I tended to play the game with my own ethic, really. In some missions, it would make things a lot easier to kill someone but I tried to only knock out people like security guards who didn't really deserve to have their neck snapped or be shot in the head. But, in terms of your normal terrorist aholes, I would go ahead and kill them.
There were also times where I was trying to sneak past someone innocent and they saw me, or something unexpected happened and I ended up having to kill people who didn't really deserve it, and I felt a little bad for it.
It plays on interesting themes. Sometimes you have to choose whether to sacrifice individuals for the overall objective. Sometimes things happen in a way that you aren't really afforded time to choose. I hope they develop the theme more in the next game, can't wait for it.
I think I'm going to play through it again, see if I can finish with 100% stealth.
