So since the prophecy says that Rand will destroy the Aiel, except for the remnant of the remnant who will live, and you claim that said destruction comes from what we have seen in AViendha's vision, we come to the conclusion that:
1- You think it is fair to blame Rand for actions that were taken by others after his death that will lead to the extinction of the Aiel in thousands of years.
2- You believe that Aviendha's vision is unavoidable.
While I do not agree with either of these and maintain that the vision is therefore flawed, if you accept them, then you can indeed reconcile it with the Prophecies.

But what you clearly believe is that Rand must personally kill the Aiel. So Aviendha's vision is moot since Ramd will have slaughtered millions of Aiel all on his own.

The entire point, I believe, is to give Avienda the opportunity to change that future

As far as I understand it, that future is impossible anyway.

Yes, I was thinking of the Aiel's suicidal traditions as well.

What I am saying is that it's not a "pure bloodline" that makes one an Aiel

You said that redefining the Aiel would allow Aviendha's vision to be possible.

No , I said there were many ways to interpret the statement based on how one defines Aiel
