So? Just because one side commits atrocities doesn't give the other side the right to do the same much less justify it.

Genocide is NOT NEW in the franchise, heck even the Cold Opening of Gundam 0079 say how almost a third of the Earth Sphere population die from the only the first month(FIRST), of the One Year War because the widespread use of NBC and lack of Sensitive from Zeon(line the Operation British).

Yes, it's not a new concept, but so what? It's still wrong to commit genocide. The Vagans destroyed colonies and killed civilians, those are war crimes. So, Ezelcant and whoever else was in a leadership position and caused the destruction of hte colonies should be punished for war crimes. The people of Vagan, the ordinary citizens don't deserve to be killed because the actions of their leader.
If the EF wins the war, the proper course of action would be to try Ezelcant for war crimes, disband the military and HELP the people who are suffering in the Mars sphere, not murder everybody like Flit explicitly suggested.
