That's the last thing any of us wants. “Alderaan has no armed forces; we don't even have a planetary defense system. A political solution is our only option.
MON MOTHMA
Which is the purpose of this petition.
MOTHMA lays her hand on PADME'S hand.

We're hoping that a show of solidarity within the Senate might stop Palpatine from further subverting the Constitution, that's all. With the signatures of a
full two thousand Senators....
PADME
...we still have less than we need to stop his supermajority from amending the Constitution any way he happens to want.I am willing to present this to Palpatine, but I am losing faith in the Senate's readiness, or even ability, to rein him in. I think we
should consult the Jedi. "

Go to the bottom there's a new report..... 😄
exclStoryline Spoiler: Peace with the Force
Why did Qui-Gon Jinn’s body not disappear when he was struck down by Darth Maul....and why did Obi-Wan and Yoda’s bodies vanish when they passed on?
There was an ancient saying one of which Yoda knew of, that stated that if a Jedi or Sith was prepared for his death and he would accept it, for he would live on in a form of a spirit ( or for our benefit a ghost )
Yoda never told any of his Jedi collages about this, he was afraid it would cause the most vulnerable Jedi Knights to be brainwashed and become determined for more power.
After Palpatine revealed himself as the dreaded Darth Sidious, Yoda feared that if Palpatine knew of the secret he would pass it on to Anakin, Which is exactly what Palpatine did. At the end of the movie aboard the Tantive IV, Yoda told Obi-wan about the secret.
And although Qui-Gon did not know of the secret he contacted Yoda through the force, and this makes Yoda think that he underestimated his own knowledge.
At the end: Obi-wan let Vader strike him down, Yoda knew he was going to die as did Vader. Palpatine was taken off guard and was not prepared to die.
Good overcame evil and all three….. Anakin, Obi-wan, Yoda were seen as spirits at the end of ROTJ.

Interesting.... It doesnt shed much light on the "Disappearing body"
discrepancy that Qui-gonn's death threw up though..... 🙁
What made him able to still be a corpse after his passing....??
Does this then mean that the spirit and the body disappearance aren't connected...? Will Qui-gon's thing fall in to the Living force awareness debate once more...? Would that explain it.......?
As I say... Interesting.....
