What civilians did Whitcomb murder? The way I see it they were all part of a system devoted to the extermination of humanity, and that makes them a viable target. Like I asked before, would they have been dead if they hadn't attacked first? It's the military that actively destroys humanity, not the civilians.
It wasn't just factories or ships that got destroyed, but a whole freaken colony along with its moon. The fact that the Sangheili fleet was amassing there points to it being highly populated as well.
I'm not saying that the Covenant was in the right, but from a neutral perspective, Whitcomb was just as much of a monster as Thel was.
An Eye for an Eye makes the whole Galaxy blind.
