I finally got around to seeing the movie yesterday afternoon. Attack of the Clones Spoilers...
It looks like the Jedi brought the death of the Republic and their order on themselves. Annakin gave a speech about how he would prefer a dictatorship to democracy, because of all the useless, crooked, untrustworthy, bickering politicians. I doubt he came up with those ideas in a vacuum. We saw a lot of Jedis saying the same sorts of things about politicians -- Annakin just took the next logical step from their attitude. The moment Palpatine suggested that he temporarily suspend democracy in the Republic, essentially so he can "make the trains run on time", Jedi bigwigs like Yoda and Windu fell all over themselves to help him. Dooku may have found the Dark Side's political ideas so attractive because of the attitudes he encountered growing up in the Jedi order. ______________________________________________________________________ Steve Sloan .........
