Besides, it's not like he was abandoning them permanently. >_>

I don't see him as reprehensible - if his dream is to build a world where Nunnally can live peace, he's got to look out for her above all else. The point I was trying to make was that in order to fulfill his dream, he's gone a bit beyond just the usual "do whatever it takes to bring down the evil empire" stuff - he's built up an entire rebellion on a lie. If that's the case, it's a bit of a stretch to say that since his goals are good (which they more or less are), we don't have to worry about the costs of getting there.
Of course, the fact that the Black Knights go through all that trouble to get him back in the first episode of the second season suggests it's a lie they're willing to live with as well. It just so happens that his goals align, for the most part, with theirs. Ironically, given what happened to Nunnally, there's even less chance he'll abandon them now, since he needs them more than ever.
