Yes, there was a bomb and they said that NUN dropped it. But that has nothing to do with the current conflict. It isn't the reason they started this war. What doubt are you giving them? That they are the Master Race and Heir of Protoculture, and that they have the moral right and Manifest Destiny to rule the known galaxy via mind control? Because that is the ONLY justification they have ever offered here.
The Windermere are not even PRETENDING to be good guys. They never tried to defend what they do as being morally right. So why are you assuming they must be doing something righteous despite the fact that their own side doesn't believe it?

How is claiming multiple times to be liberating the cluster from their enemies
not trying to paint themselves as the good guys? If you said they were being hypocrites I would agree, but when you say they're not even trying to claim to be the good guys, you're just flat out wrong.
Roid's declaration of war in Episode 4 is meant for outside consumption. Roid was smart enough not to be bated into an argument about who detonated the WMD on Windermere when talking to the Voldoran leader. I'm inclined to think Roid's declaration of war was meant to try to appeal to grievances other planets may have had against the NUN, which are more likely to be about economics and sovereignty.
The other Windermereans? They focus on that WMD and its effects
a lot. Cassim lost his entire family to it. Keith and Gramia are
enraged by it. Its clearly a big deal to them.
