ok one comment that needs to be made.......you keep saying why dont they blockade Alderaan?

where does it suggest in the Star Wars movies that Alderaan is more important than Naboo?

yes Naboo might be a back water world, geographically (or whatever the space term is) but does that really mean it has no political weight whatsoever? Look at the chief politician FROM NABOO...he becomes the fricking Emperor, not bad for a back water world with absolutely sod all going for it!

One thing that I had forgotten to include that I had to check up on was the fact that not only do the Naboo back this increase in taxation of trade routes BUT.....the main route used by the Trade Federation is located by Naboo, hence the Trade Federations presence there....rather than Alderaan!

Holy shit.....I should have that Sansweet dudes job!

ps....I do understand the point you're trying to make, the movie DOES NOT make this clear at all, & in some ways makes the Naboo the bad guys! Food for thought
