What would Kushina know? The Uzumaki were destroyed while she was only a child, and she wasn't even in the country when her clan was destroyed. Any info she would have would be just as much hearsay and rumour as anything Minato would know. And if the repeated flashbacks addressing the same events have taught us anything, not being directly connected to an event means you don't actually know what happened which means even more flashbacks to try and explain what happened...

All I remember is that Itachi and Sasuke were left in the line of fire, and if the clan was trying to use the Kyuubi to destroy the village, they would have to be incredibly stupid to leave the clan leader's kids right in the path of destruction...

Why do you think Minato knows the whole story if Kakashi doesn't? You've essentially said that Minato's participation in the discussion is even more inconsequential since he knows nothing about what happened to Rin...

It might be a stretch, but it is not hopeless, or at least not hopeless enough that even more deus ex machina need to come in to deal with the issue.

I don't mind many of the zombie fights. Gaara's father, Sai's brother, Muu and the third Raikage. Most/All of them are a little fillerish and definitely pandering, but they are still somewhat dramatic and there are risks and costs in their battle. Their are no risks and no costs when two zombies fight, though.

Bad pacing and focus on uninteresting characters is why the war is boring to me.

Sadly, this is probably true.
