Sure, that was his son but I bet royalty in those days have tons of bastard children, should he really care about someone he did not personally raise or even know existed until recently. And arguably, he only wanted to kill Jafar because he was a deemed a threat to the crown prince. Let's not forget King George also tried to execute David, who was not only his adopted son but also did many heroic services for his kingdom (which is much more than what can be said of Jafar). Is King George to be considered less evil than the Sultan just because David is not his own flesh and blood?

Not saying what the Sultan did is to be condoned but compared to the stuff other characters on the show have done such as Regina and Cora wiping out an entire village and ripping out the hearts of who knows how many people, Rumplestiltskin creating a curse that devastated an entire kingdom etc., the Sultan seems kind of tame... i agree with this post, in my eyes it doesn't matter that jafar was sultan son because sultan didn't raise him and grow to know and love him. to him jafar was just some kid that was a threat to the prince. besides he only tried to kill one person all the other villians killed mulitple people. i think hands down the most evil villian is cora for the simple fact she was heartless. i mean yeah pan left rumple for youth but pan tried to give rumple a chance to be by his side cora however gave her first born up sent her to a different land, killed the man her second daughter loved so she could force her to marry someone she didnt want to marry.planned to kill that daughter. then she tried to destroy the same daughter so she could need her. then she tried to kill the man she claimed to love for power. at the end of the day just like all the other villians cora would have done anything and killed anyone for power and her benefit. but she would not regret it later unlike the other villians
