      Pacifism is not refusing to fight no matter what. That idea is folly. Pacifism is having the capability of waging war but refuse to do so out of the belief that peace is more beneficial for all. A true pacifist will do everything they can to pursue peace, but if there is no choice, they're not going to bend over and die. They will wage war if necessary for self-defense.

    So while everyone else couldn’t firebend, Iroh could.

    He trully was the most powerful bender in history. Not because of some spiritual connections, not because of cheap tricks, not because of raw strength or power, but because he understood everything about what fire was, he was one with fire, it was like his own body. It wasn't that he could command fire to do his will, he knew how to commad fire to use it into infinite potential. He was breathing like fire, moving like fire, existed like fire. His entire personality was from the begining like flames - Warm, soothing, almost necesary for life, he will help people around him evolve past their limitations no matter who they are. He does not care if you disrespect him, but attack him, and you will burn. Also perfect for making tea.
