If she's not, that just makes it worse...
I'm a little wary of those conclusions. I have a hard time believing that 10 would have felt his doppleganger's actions were justified. As for trapping his own race, that wasn't because the time lords were going to control people, it was because they were going to end the bloody universe. And yes, I agree that 11 is a very different man than 10, but this still feels off...

All of the others appear to have been incapacitated and wired into their beds pretty quickly. Why not Amy, The Doctor, and the Captain?

It was part of the Big Bad Wolf arc if I remember correctly. He trapped his clone in the other universe as "punishment", but I don't think he felt it was truly the wrong decision as it saved both Earths. Additionally I believe at some point it was mentioned that he trapped his own race in a specific time to prevent them from controlling the universe and all the races within it, and I believe he sent the Daleks to the end of time, effectively killing them as well. The Doctor has always abhorred violence, but of all the beings in the universe, he's the one you least want to piss off. And then there's the fact that he is a new Doctor, and every Doctor has been different from the ones before, and changed over the course of the show. The most recent doctors seem to be the most empathetic/human, so it wouldn't surprise me if he was pissed off enough to do it that way after they took Amy.
