Is there any reason we\'re still spoiler-tagging Spock Prime on the main topic page? The movie\'s been out over a year and a half--it\'s hit YouShouldKnowThisAlready/ItWasHisSled territory, especially since Nimoy was in the frigging trailer before the movie was even released.

Your \\\"good person\\\" example makes the same error that some anti-Germans made post WWII-- it accepts that because *some* Germans were horrific monsters, they *all* were guilty.

Killing children is bad. Yes, resolved.

Killing adult enemies? When they\\\'re as obviously bad ass as Aang\\\'s teacher? Not so much.

You jump from \\\"Killing the Air Nomad children was wrong, and anyone who did so was evil\\\" to \\\"kill the Air Nomads was wrong, and anyone who did it was evil.\\\"

The pile of bones at Gyatsu\\\'s feet shows that the air monks were _able_ to be awesome fighters, which is not the norm with children.

To keep with your analog, you\\\'re equating fighting the Polish army (possibly the French underground, depending) with gassing the Jewish children, or the other horrors against the helpless of WWII.

You are incorrect about the Nuremberg trials; they were only for [[http://www.thehistoricalarchive.com/articles/nazi-war-criminals.html twenty-some Nazi war criminals,]] whose crimes couldn\\\'t be assigned to a specific location.

For a bonus, you\\\'re also equating \\\"getting out of the crazy damaged fire nation, rather than defending the fire nation\\\" with \\\"aiding in the genocide against the fire nation you think will result because of the last two generations of fire nation leaders.\\\"
