My issue with the "Collateral Murder" video is that it was released in such a heavily editorialized manner; the raw footage would have served the same purpose. Instead, we got a video telling us exactly how we should interpret the footage. Not a fan of that, personally.

and it's also taken completely out of context. It's easy to play armchair general unless you're the guy flying that bird.

Exactly. And my thing is, considering fog of war, I do think the aircrew of that chopper ultimately made the right decision given the information they had; which is far more horrifying than the editorialized nonsense Wikileaks published.

In war, you can make all the right decisions and innocent people will still needlessly die. It's a far stronger statement of the horrors of war and the need to avoid it than the ridiculous claim that the military was intentionally targeting reporters and children.
