High taxes, trade rescritions, no personal rights and freedoms, are what Darth Vader/Anakin Skywalker's epic and dramatic redemption is about???? No!!!!!!!

So, millions of people with families that they loved and cared about and who grieved for their losses were horribly burned to death in two fiery explosions

Just so people could have lower taxes????? What the????????

What about all the innocents who died on Alderaan, a civilian target? Did nobody there have families? Those attacks were unprovoked. If Princess Leia stole the plans, shouldn't they have killed her instead of blowing up a whole planet full of people who had nothing to do with the stolen plans and were peaceful, happy citizens of the Empire?

The Death Stars, however, were military targets, controlled and manned by military personnel, all of whom joined the military knowing the risks of being in the military. No peaceful innocent citizens on those at all.

Did you not read my post above WW2/the second world war and allied war crimes????

Yes, the destruction of alderaan was a war crime, but just because one side commits a war crime doesn't mean anything on who's the good guys or the bad guys, the big picture does.......

Whats ur point by saying that the death star was a military target???

In the EU, women and children, not to mention the contractors and construction workers, were on it. What about the drafted stormtroopers and imperials??? The rebels soldiers should've been kind to them and helped them escape......

You just contradicted yourself, too........
