Avatar: The Last Airbender

Bonhoeffer was a man who was part of an assassination attempt against the infamous, Adolf Hitler. Bonhoeffer was part of this attempt because he knew that Hitler needed to be dead. He battled inside of his head thinking that killing him would be a sin but letting him live would be a greater sin. This thought and taking part of the attempt ended up in his arrest and death by hanging. In the final episode of the third book of Avatar, Aang, is faced with this same problem. However, Aang takes a different road than Bonhoeffer did. The Fire Lord, Ozai, and Aang get into a major battle at the end of the final book. Being the Avatar, Aang has the ability to use all of the bendings, water, earth, air, and fire. At the end of the battle Aang is faced with a major decision as he is completely destroying Lord Ozai. He has Ozai pinned down and has the chance to kill him. Even though every body has told him that he must kill Ozai to save the world he finds he can do something better. Aang chooses not the kill Lord Ozai but instead uses his great Avatar power to take away Ozai's bending power. Aang chose the more ethical way to go about the situation. However, both of them were put in a position where either way would have been fine.
