Por que Darth Sidious deixou as Guerras Clônicas acontecerem, já que ele e o Conde Dookan estão do mesmo lado? [duplicado]

11

Ele poderia simplesmente ter dominado os Cavaleiros Jedi com seu exército de stormtroops e acabar com isso.

O problema de simplesmente assumir o controle da República pela força e exterminar os Jedi é que ele lança Palpatine / Sidious como o vilão militar que governa pela força (sem trocadilhos). Se ele se move muito rapidamente e usa muita força muito cedo, ele se arrisca a se rebelar com planetas e sistemas.

The more you tighten your grip, Tarkin, the more star systems will slip through your fingers.

Em vez disso, ele escolhe jogar o jogo longo.

Ele cria um inimigo para toda a República se unir - a Federação de Comércio e seu exército de droides. Quando a guerra irrompe, ele engana o Senado para conceder-lhe poderes de emergência - poderes que ele nunca pretende renunciar.

De Ataque dos Clones :

MAS AMEDA This is a crisis! If the Senate votes the Chancellor emergency powers, he could approve the use of the army in a minute.

PALPATINE Please, please, I don't wish to have emergency powers. That's too extreme a solution. It's akin to a dictatorship. We must rely on the Jedi. Master YODA, how many are available to go to Geonosis?

MACE WINDU and YODA look at one another.

YODA Two Hundred,... less or more.

BAIL ORGANA With all due respect for the Jedi Order, two hundred will be no match for hundreds of thousands of battle droids.

MACE WINDU Patience. We should wait for Obi-Wan to report back. We don't know that Count Dooku has made a treaty with the Corporate Alliance, it's speculation.

SENATOR ASK AAK But we must prepare for the worst. I'm going to propose a motion granting emergency powers to the Chancellor at the next session. We must not wait!

PALPATINE Out of the question, Senator! You and I are too closely aligned. The issue will become partisan and debates will begin. The proposal must come from a neutral source.

MAS AMEDA If only Senator Amidala were here.

JAR JAR steps forward from the back of the group.

JAR JAR Supreme Chancellor... my august colleagues, I would be proud to propose the motion in question. This is a grave situation, and I'm sure Senator Amidala, and the Queen of Naboo would agree.

SENATOR ASK AAK Thank you, Representative Binks.

Silence. Then PALPATINE sighs deeply.

PALPATINE If called upon, I will serve. But it will be the saddest day of my life.

Agora, deixando a guerra se arrastar e aparecendo como um líder firme, ele se agrada ao povo, tornando-se cada vez mais popular. Alguns planetas / sistemas / territórios se tornam mais dependentes da República à medida que se tornam devastados pela guerra. Os Jedi, enquanto isso, diminuem em número, pois alguns deles estão perdidos em batalha.

Com o tempo, Palpatine usa o Jedi Counci fechado. contra si próprios e assume oficialmente a supervisão do Conselho.

De Revenge of the Sith :

ANAKIN stands with PALPATINE at his window overlooking the vastness of Coruscant. Several buildings have been destroyed. A brown haze hangs over the landscape.

PALPATINE: ANAKIN, this afternoon the Senate is going to call on me to take direct control of the Jedi Council.

ANAKIN: The Jedi will no longer report to the Senate?

PALPATINE: They will report to me . . . personally. The Senate is too unfocused to conduct a war. This will bring a quick end to things.

ANAKIN: I agree, but the Jedi Council may not see it that way.

PALPATINE: There are times when we must all endure adjustments to the constitution in the name of security.

ANAKIN: With all due respect, sir, the Council is in no mood for more constitutional amendments.

PALPATINE: Thank you, my friend, but in this case I have no choice . . . this war must be won.

ANAKIN: Everyone will agree on that.

PALPATINE: ANAKIN, I've known you since you were a small boy. I have advised you over the years when I could ... I am very proud of your accomplishments. You have won many battles the Jedi Council thought were lost . . . and you saved my life. I hope you trust me, ANAKIN.

ANAKIN: Of course.

PALPATINE: I need your help, son.

ANAKIN: What do you mean?

PALPATINE: I fear the Jedi. The Council keeps pushing for more control. They're shrouded in secrecy and obsessed with maintaining their autonomy . . . ideals. I find simply incomprehensible in a democracy.

ANAKIN: I can assure you that the Jedi are dedicated to the values of the Republic, sir.

PALPATINE: Nevertheless, their actions will speak more loudly than their words. I'm depending on you.

ANAKIN: For what? I don't understand.

PALPATINE: To be the eyes, ears, and voice of the Republic . . .

ANAKIN thinks about this.

PALPATINE: (continuing) ANAKIN . . . I'm appointing you to be my personal representative on the Jedi Council.

Com seus poderes de emergência, controle do Conselho Jedi e poder efetivo sobre todo o Senado, ele agora pode legalmente assumir o controle de tudo.

BAIL ORGANA: Now that he has control of the Jedi Council, the Chancellor has appointed Governors to oversee all star systems in the Republic.

FANG ZAR: When did this happen?

BAIL ORGANA: The decree was posted this morning.

PADME: Do you think he will dismantle the Senate?

MON MOTHMA: Why bother? As a practical matter, the Senate no longer exists.

GIDDEAN DANU: The constitution is in shreds. Amendment after amendment . . . executive directives, sometimes a dozen in one day.

Eventualmente, ele acumulou tanto poder, e os Jedi ficaram tão enfraquecidos que não podem ter uma chance contra sua traição e criação do Império. O fim da guerra também fornece um bom ponto no tempo para enquadrar os Jedi como rebeldes. Quando a guerra termina, os Jedi chegam a apreender Palpatine por ser um Lorde Sith e conspirar contra a República. Mas sem que o público saiba disso, sua tentativa fracassada pode facilmente ser rotulada como um assassinato fracassado em uma conspiração dos Jedi para assumir o controle do governo.

De Revenge of the Sith :

MACE WINDU: I sense a plot to destroy the Jedi. The dark side of the Force surrounds the Chancellor.

Kl-ADI-MUNDI: If he does not give up his emergency powers after the destruction of Grievous, then he should be removed from office.

MACE WINDU: That could be a dangerous move ... the Jedi Council would have to take control of the Senate in order to secure a peaceful transition . . .

Kl-ADI-MUNDI: . . . and replace the Congress with Senators who are not filled with greed and corruption.

YODA: To a dark place this line of thought will carry us. Hmmmmm. . . . great care we must take.

e mais tarde

ANAKIN: Master Windu, I must talk to you.

MACE WINDU: What is it, Skywalker? We are in a hurry. We have just received word that Obi-Wan has destroyed General Grievous. We are on our way to make sure the Chancellor returns emergency powers back to the Senate.

ANAKIN: He won't give up his power. I've just learned a terrible truth. I think Chancellor Palpatine is a Sith Lord.

MACE WINDU: A Sith Lord?

ANAKIN: Yes. The one we have been looking for.

MACE WINDU: How do you know this?

ANAKIN: He knows the ways of the Force. He has been trained to use the dark side.

MACE WINDU: Are you sure?

ANAKIN: Absolutely.

MACE WINDU: Then our worst fears have been realized. We must move quickly if the Jedi Order is to survive.

Palpatine quer poder e ele sabe que a maneira de obtê-lo é através da guerra.

Sidious precisava da guerra para convencer o Senado a dar-lhe o controle, primeiro. Uma vez que ele foi nomeado Imperador, ele tinha o poder de dissolver a guerra e atacar os Jedi, mas isso significaria expor sua traição. Em vez disso, ele foi capaz de usar a guerra falsa para enquadrar os Jedi como traidores e garantir sua posição como Imperador, com a população em geral acreditando que ele ainda é bom.

Em outras palavras, se ele tivesse simplesmente subjugado os Jedi com o exército que ele havia feito:

  • Ele não seria capaz de se tornar imperador, pois não haveria ameaça percebida da guerra com o exército dos dróides
  • Sidious seria odiado por matar o Jedi ainda-apreciado, ou se Palpatine assumisse o controle do Exército e matasse os Jedi, ele teria sido deposto como chanceler.
  • Ele não seria capaz de pagar pelo Exército Clone, já que ele não seria o líder do governo como Sidious, ou se ele fizesse isso como Palpatine ele não seria Imperador e, portanto, teria que pagar pelo exército através do Senado que já o teria depurado por trair os Jedi.
