 And OWK was prolly right, Anakin would've wanted luke to have it. And if you think its not the same

But Kenobi didn't say Anakin would have wanted him to have it. He said Anakin WANTED him to have it. There's a difference. Kenobi's statement implies Anakin asked Kenobi to give the lightsaber to Luke, which just plain didn't happen.

Bail organa was a senator. he , like padme, were one of the senators who were against the war and all the chancelor's proposals.

He kept in close contact with the Jedi Order as he saw them as the only form of gov't not corrupted. why wouldn't he help Organa

in the war? He doesn't necesarily have to be a Jedi general.

But Leia didn't say Kenobi "helped" Organa in the war. She said he "served" Organa, which implies a situation a bit different from what we saw in the prequels. You can rationalize it to make it work (like Kenobi served the senate not Organa usually but did special missions for Organa specifically), but it sticks out as a clue that Lucas envisioned things differently back when he made ANH.

I don't see what problem you have with this. Yoda trained OWK for a few years until Qui-Gon reached knighthood. then, i'm sure

yoda taught him more. Here's a reference of the Phantom Menace, "But master yoda told me to be mindful of the future,".

This has been addressed. The way Kenobi said it implied Yoda was Kenobi's primary teacher. It's clear that there is revision here. Qui Gon wasn't in the original backstory.
