    Alright he played both sides for patsies. In TPM he wanted power in general to control the republic. But for him to control Anakin, did you think he planned on getting him when he was picked up in TPM or just when he was getting popular in AOTC?

    I think he had to wait for Anakin to be trained as a Jedi before he could seriously think of turning him to the dark side.

    I think he's been planning Annie from the beginnning. ROTS seemed to indicate that Palgius(sp?) created Anakin in Shmi.

    Anakin was a random event. Had Maul not been killed, Anakin would never have been seduced from the age of nine. If later in life a recruitment into the Sith had occured, he would have resisted it just as Luke did. That was the whole point of bringing Anakin into the series at the age of nine, and the reason his offspring were hidden until the will of the force gave the surviving Masters a sign.

    But the thing is, what would Palpatine have done if Anakin was never discovered? I know that he wanted him to be Sith because of the prophecy, he wanted the power to bring balance to the force on his side.

    But let's look at the series of events. He wanted to Jedi eradicated. Who do you think can fit the bill for it? We know that he recruits Jedi into Sith seeing how Dooku used to be Jedi. But even if he didn't have plans to destroy the Jedi, and it was more of a plan to just gain power over the universe...how long can he possibly hold onto power before people wonder....Heyyyyy....this guy is pulling both sides strings.
