Yeah.
The terrorists really had a good party afterwards.
So...the persecuted are all terrorists?
I was being flippant.
But it does raise a decent enough question - one that I do not have a good answer for.
Well, they were conspiring, aiding and abeting the VIOLENT overthrow of a legitimately elected government. Have a better word, besides the lame Rebel ?

Sidious had most of the senators killed on Mustafar or during the war
OBI-WAN: No, I don't think so. The Chancellor will not be able to control the thousands of star systems without keeping the Senate intact.
And yet, he disbanded it 20 years later. By senators, I mean the CIS senators, whom Anakin was assigned to kill.

Elected? By this argument, Saddam Hussein was elected...though he killed all opposition and anyone who said they would vote differently.

I have no fondness for never ending debate - especially when it comes to political issues.
