I agree. It was a tragedy, but she was a British vessel, flying the British flag, in a war zone.... I can't fault the u-boat commander for taking the shot. I would have.

Calling him a murderer is no different than charging the USAAF or the RAF for the carpet bombings of German cities with the same offense.
correct.

perhaps one day mankind as a whole will understand that the way to settle our differences should not involve armed conflict.

unfortunately... if that ever happens it will be far into the future.
