In your opinion, Ash. Even so, that's possibly for higher ranked missions. We're talking about a C-Rank mission here.

I believe you guys are thinking too hard about this. Understand I'm trying to have Kimi literally survive the massacre in a plausible way, something you don't see many Uchiha around here doing. I obviously can't have her face Itachi or Obito, not only would she undoubtly lose, everyone in the compound at that time was confirmed dead, except for Sasuke. The decisions made in her story, I'd like to believe, are plausible if you think about all the possibilities.

Iruka is a worrywart when it comes to missions he deems too dangerous or beyond the abilities of his students, but he can be convinced to allow them to partake in such missions or activities if said students prove their worth. Also note that Naruto was always involved when it came to those decisions, and we all know Iruka has a more special bond with Naruto, meaning he would be extra strict about the dangers he was about to face.

Hiruzen, as Hokage, certainly is required to make harsh decisions at times for the sake of the village, but he always tries to solve things without causing any trouble, and he even admits he lets his compassionate side take the best of him, which is why he had Danzou take care of the more shady stuff.

"''Due to the long life he had lived, Hiruzen served as a source of wisdom for much of the series, passing on the things he had learned to the next generation. As Hokage, he had also acquired a habit of attempting to end things peacefully, and did what he could to avoid bloodshed amongst his allies and his enemies. At the series' start, Hiruzen was one of the few people who saw Naruto as more than the container of Kurama, and, as such, became someone that Naruto truly admired, even thinking of Hiruzen as a grandfather-figure.

''According to Kakashi Hatake, Hiruzen loved his students deeply, including Orochimaru, no matter how far he had fallen. This ideal stems from his belief that Konoha's next generation is a precious resource that must be protected. However, it was the same belief that forced Hiruzen to allow Orochimaru to escape after uncovering his experiments in replicating Hashirama's DNA at the cost of many lives, thus unknowingly allowing his former student to commit even more tragedies. By his own admission, Hiruzen noted that he was too compassionate and indulging of a person, leaving things such as the more underhanded, but necessary, tasks to Danzō, though eventually he lost his trust for him after he spearheaded the Uchiha Clan Massacre.''"

If he even let Orochimaru escape the village after his horrendous acts, knowing fully well this could place the village in danger (and it did!), and believes the next generation is the future of the village, why in high heaven would he decline Iruka's request of placing Kimi in a C-Rank mission?

To be honest, I think you guys are letting your personal opinions cloud your judgement just a tad bit.
