No he wasn't, as he gave up the mantle before Cata even launched. He did however still command quite a bit of respect;
Thrall yells: I will send a representative from amongst your people to the new warchief, Garrosh Hellscream in Orgrimmar.
Thrall yells: You will have a new home in Azshara and the Bilgewater Cartel will be part of the Horde!
Trade Prince Gallywix yells: It will be as you say! Long live the Bilgewater Cartel! For the Horde!

Yet its Blizzard's call to tell the player that Arthas is not heading toward villian. Its kinda a staple for Blizzard, when a character does something that results in civilian deaths
Garrosh - Theramore
Arthas - Stratholme
Mengsk - Tarsonis

And Garrosh believes somethin similar
"Thrall did not understand that the Alliance would never leave them be. It would push at the edges—like the orcs' enemies in Garadar—until the Horde broke. The only counter was to fight, to drive the humans out first. The orcs' security came above all else. There would be no negotiation until the Alliance understood that. Garrosh would not stop. His people would never dwindle, not again. The Horde would never fall."
We have faced trials and danger, threats to our world and our way of life. And yet, we persevere. We are the Horde. We will not let anything break our spirits!"

Blizzard is really inconsistent with this. They want to paint Garrosh as evil, but they say he would never target civilians and he hasn't. He's just mean to people who disagree with him. Then they have Jaina, who actually does target civilians on multiple occasions, and so far they're perfectly fine with her remaining an Alliance hero.
Jaina is as responsible for the deaths of those blood elf civilians in dalaran as Garrosh is responsible for the bombing of theramore. She may not have directly killed them herself, but she caused there deaths in allowing chaos to rain across dalaran from the silver convent. Garrosh didn't drop the bomb himself or even make it, but he set everything up and planned for it to happen.
Neither of them should be excused for there actions.
(its I did use to like Jaina, a lot, from wc3)

And OTOH, those that were attacked were deemed to be in a state of insurrection against the Kirin Tor and Dalaran. Its not made perfectly celar, but players are informed that those still running free are thsoe who resisted arrest and fought back. Theer is a reason Jainas running around shouting "The Kirin Tor will not tolerate insurrection".

Ugh I really hope Horde and Alliance aren't holding hands next expansion.
they will do what orcs are best at, when the legion comes, they will battle them and they will slay many demons oh and thrall will make sure his people will be safe and honorable again
Metzen will write some awesome high school grade fanfic and we will all be as impressed as usual.
