very interesting analysis buddy.  Here are my thoughts.  Think of WWII.  The US bombed Japan and killed countless innocent people.  Does that make the USA mass murders? Not necessarily.  They did what was needed to do to end a war and bring down those in power.  Same thing with the War on Terror and War in Iraq.  The USA might accidentally (or even purposely) attack innocent cities where terrorists and Al-Qaeda members are theought to be hiding, but it's what needs to be done to end this damn war and make things right.
Luke was also a novice in using the force, and the first of a brand new order of Jedi.  My theory is that he didn't know very much about the Jedi Code and did what he had to in order to save his friends, and ultimately, destroy the Empire.  Also remember that Luke pretty much is God in terms of the Jedi. He decides what the rules and regulations are, because, well, hell! he's the only one!
