As a player (a relatively important player in the story with how we've been developed), I don't accept that. Likewise, our leaders shouldn't accept it either; There were real crimes committed here and they need to be paid for. Yes, we can stop hostilities towards each other, but the leaders and those directly under the leaders who issued the commands / followed them through / openly supported them all need to pay and the most egregious of those can only be paid for with their heads. As Anduin himself put it, "There can be no peace as long as Sylvanas leads the Horde."
As for the OP's suggestion, no that's just horrible story telling. "Oh all those people you literally saw burnt to death? Yeah, turns out you didn't see their fried corpses, it was just an illusion and Elune teleported everyone to safety but also told them they couldn't contact the survivors to let them know everything was okay."
