What in the films leads anyone to believe any of the Jedi could resist being mind-controlled by someone of Xavier's level?
What type of a feat was it when Darth Vader choked the life out of a subordinate while being on another vessel? If that was TP, I'm having a difficult time believing that Xavier is going to be messing with these guys' brains. Especially considering that Yoda was equal, if not greater than Vader in this field.
I don't know that Xavier would be capable of manipulating all of these Jedi at once. I don't doubt that his abilities would allow him to influence the weaker minded, Jedi. He may even be able to manipulate the likes of, Yoda but I don't know if he could control them all at once. Although, I don't think it matters much because once Magneto relinquishes the jedi of their lightsabers I don't see them being able to defend against, HAvok

Well what would it be? is it TK? I always thought that Vader used his mind into making that guy think that he was choking to death, or something like it. Maybe it was a little bit of both? I just don't know if they Jedi would be susceptible to TP manipulation.

Anyway, X-men murder the Jedi. I really have a hard time seeing them resisting Xavier's mental manipulation, at least not without it severely compromising their other combat abilities. And Magneto can just rip their sabers away. He's been shown to control pretty much any kind of metal, so I don't think it's far fetched to believe he can control their sabers. That basically leaves them sitting ducks for the rest of the First Class team.
