The Queen will not approve. Qui-Gon Jinn : The Queen does not need to know. Padmé : Well, I don't approve. Queen Amidala : I will not condone a course of action that will lead us to war.
Indeed, it's the favoritism of fighting over diplomacy, and a lack of communication, that has allowed this violent escalation. Again, Padmé's wisdom falls on deaf ears, as her sensible request to reason with Palpatine is shot down by Anakin.
"...I Call It Aggressive Negotiations." Even when Padmé and Anakin are seemingly falling in love during the course of Attack of the Clones, it's established that they have fairly different ideas of politics and diplomacy. Yet, this cheeky quote from the senator near the end of the film serves as an amusing confirmation of their growing bond.
Even in the midst of despair, clinging onto life while her ex-lover has plummeted into darkness, Padmé tells Obi-Wan that there's still hope. There's little indication at this ultimate low point for our heroes, but she believes it nonetheless.
Queen Amidala : I will not condone a course of action that will lead us to war.
Anakin : Don't be afraid. Padme : I'm not afraid to die. I've been dying a little bit each day since you came back into my life.
There's also a sense in which Anakin's change to the Dark Side emotionally killed Padme. But amazingly, right before she passes away, Padme tells Obi-Wan, "There is good in him.
A shape-shifting Clawdite assassin from Zolan, Zam Wesell could assume any humanoid form. Jango Fett hired her to kill Padmé Amidala on Coruscant, but the Naboo Senator eluded an explosive that destroyed her starship, then escaped poisonous kouhuns let loose in her apartment.
*According to sources published at the time the prequels came out, Anakin was 20 in Episode II, but 9 in Episode I, which took place ten years earlier.

With his wife obi-wan kenobi however had another responsibility.
"Tell your sister you were right" were Anakin's last words. Vader's last words were "If you can not be turned to the Dark Side, then perhaps she will." but everything after he threw away the Emperor is not Vader.
On either side of the sarcophagus, a stone pot filled with red flowers stood on a column. At some point after his transformation into the armored Darth Vader, Amidala's husband, the fallen Jedi Knight Anakin Skywalker came to visit the mausoleum, stricken by grief and remorse for his part in her death.
Obi-Wan Kenobi: Anakin, my allegiance is to the Republic, to democracy! Anakin Skywalker: If you're not with me, then you're my enemy. Obi-Wan Kenobi: [realizing that Anakin is consumed by evil and there's no reasoning with him anymore] Only a Sith deals in absolutes.
Amidala, a leading opponent of the Military Creation Act that proposed the creation of an army for the Galactic Republic, was targeted when she arrived on Coruscant for a vote on the measure as part of Darth Sidious' plot to ensure the passing of the legislation.
five yearsPadmé was born in the year 46 BBY on Naboo, and Anakin was born five years later, in the year 41 BBY. That makes Padmé five years older than Anakin.
When Anakin reveals his plan to overthrow Darth Sidious and rule the galaxy with Padmé, she knows he is lost to the dark side and has completed his transition to Darth Vader. When Obi-Wan reveals himself, Darth Vader feels betrayed by Padmé and puts her in a force choke hold. Darth Vader releases her to fight Obi-Wan.
Anxiety can be defined as the occurrence of the fight or flight response when there is no real danger. While the fight/flight response doesn't necessarily "cause" fighting, it is mediated by the release of adrenaline, which can make a person more aggressive.
When you attack someone, you are going to hurt yourself as much as you hurt the other person, if not more. For example, if you allow yourself to get really angry at someone, that anger can last for hours and cause you to remain in a bad mood. Or cause you to be ashamed of yourself.
Anxiety in this cases isn't causing the aggression but the two are related.
Moments later, in come the Separatists and right behind his back, [Padmé] is starting the Rebellion to overthrow him ,” McCaig said. “Because Padmé can see that he is becoming a monster.”. It wasn't the first time fans had heard evidence of a path not taken.
In The Art of Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith, below the portrait of sharp-eyed Padmé with the bright red ribbon in her hair, a note by McCaig describes some queen who never was: “The moment Padmé realizes Anakin can't be saved, she should do the thing that she needs to do—out of love. She should kill him.”.
They form a coalition of planets concerned about democracy. Padmé leads the delegation to deliver their demands to Chancellor Palpatine; behind him, Anakin. This story stretches back to The Phantom Menace, when Palpatine convinced young Queen Amidala to call a vote of no confidence in the Senate.
He has an action figure. (Jon Favreau, on the set of The Mandalorian, posted an Instagram photo of a grimy ice cream maker, teasing that its role isn't over.) In a canon with so much room, there are always more stories to tell.
In his bestselling book The God Delusion, atheist Richard Dawkins refers to the God of the Old Testament as “a vindictive, bloodthirsty ethnic cleanser.”. Journalist Christopher Hitchens complains that the Old Testament contains a warrant for “indiscriminate massacre.”. Other critics of Christianity have leveled similar charges, ...
Answer. The fact that God commanded the killing of entire nations in the Old Testament has been the subject of harsh criticism from opponents of Christianity for some time. That there was violence in the Old Testament is indisputable. The question is whether Old Testament violence is justifiable and condoned by God.
First, no human person (including infants) is truly innocent. The Scripture teaches that we are all born in sin ( Psalm 51:5; 58:3 ). This implies that all people are morally culpable for Adam’s sin in some way. Infants are just as condemned from sin as adults are.
If God took them before the age of moral accountability, then they went straight to heaven (as we believe). Those children are in a far better place than if they had lived into adulthood as Canaanites. Surely, the issue of God commanding violence in the Old Testament is difficult.
