I am unclear as to the "greater good" being served by waging these two wars.

If an automobile accident occurs and a civilians' life ends, that seems like "negligent/accidental" death.
When non combatants are killed through mistake, that seems like "negligent/accidental" homicide.
Purposely killing non combatants is murder.

So which is acceptable?
I'm not OK with any of the three examples.

According to Merriam/Webster; Whistle blowing is the act of revealing something covert. That is what happened and the definition I had in mind in my previous post.
I am confused by the notion of "good" and "bad" leaks specifically related to past events. What happened - happened and I would like to know the bad news as well as the good.

I hope returning soldiers aren't treated the same as after Viet Nam. I haven't picked up on that sentiment so far. That treatment should
"be laid solely at the feet of the politicians and our enemies who started it."

Respectfully,
