Just because the author doesn't mention every detail of the war, there is certainly space for these evils to happen, in the defenceless villages of Rohan for example.
Eomer, the question I was debating here was about the flaw that the LOTR did not show much of the consequences of war, the suffering.
Hence the fact that the book does not show these things combined with the minimal casualties amoung the main characters shows that the book has this flaw.
