Celestial Being is as far away from being pacifists as you can get in a Gundam - if they want something solved, they put their money where their mouths are and exterminate the problems through armed intervention.
Celestial Being was all about ending wars by turning everyone into pacifists, so they might not practice it, but it was their goal nonetheless.

As for the results though, I was thinking more of the ending to the movie where all of mankind's basically united under the Earth Federation and seemed to have a long period of peace with the ELS and everybody seems all happy and turning into Innovators and all about peace and understanding and stuff.

But then I remember that we don't really know much about what happened between the time the giant flower first appeared and that 50 years later segment. Maybe it wasn't all colorful and fluffy as it appeared.
