What does Palpatine have to do with the Death of Shmi?`
First, I know nothing. The straight facts are she was a prisoner of the Tusken Raiders, she’s brutalized and dying when Anakin finds her, but she IS still alive and they have a very brief dialogue before she dies. Anakin is in shock when his anger catches up with him and he leaps back and slaughters every Tusken man, woman, and child in sight. He literally wipes out a tribe.
Are the Tuskens just being themselves by attacking Shmi? The homestead, etc.? Why did they take HER prisoner? Is someone else or some set of intentional circumstances manipulating them?
There are two questions whose answers would resolve this:
1) Why would Palpatine get involved with this? What does he have to gain?
2) How would he go about achieving this? -from so far away?
What do you think?
