In a chamber, which conveniently can only be opened by an airbender, they found the corpse of Aang's mentor, Monk Gyatso, surrounded by the remains of Fire Nation soldiers. There's so much wrong with this I've got to take it apart piece by piece. First off, how did those soldiers get in there? The door could ONLY be opened by an airbender. And are we supposed to assume that an old, pacifist monk killed them once they got in the chamber they shouldn't have been able to get into? Even if we believe that, it doesn't add up with the rest of the story. Sozin was supposedly committing rigorous, systematic genocide, but you're telling me that not only did they not retrieve the body of an important Air Nomad leader, but they also left the bodies of their own soldiers just laying there? Ridiculous.
And to top it all off, as if the story weren't already incredulous enough, suddenly airbenders start cropping up all over the world. Tenzin and his cronies will try to spin you some yarn about how Korra's spirit world bullshit (don't get me started on her) somehow turned a bunch of people into airbenders, miraculously resurrecting the Air Nomads from extinction. Yeah, right. I think there's a more obvious explanation: the airbenders were never extinct to begin with and all these new airbenders are just the descendants of the original Air Nomads. Now they're flying around everywhere acting like they own the place and whenever anyone says a word about it they all start screeching "MUH MILLION BILLION PEACEFUL MONKS BURNED ALIVE" until you apologize by approving their funding for the next year.
tl;dr - Sozin did nothing wrong, the Air Nomad genocide didn't happen, but I wish it did
