Was the Death Star Attack an Inside Job?

Uncomfortable Questions: Was the Death Star Attack an Inside Job?

Websurdity Link: This article was inspired by the fine users at the James Randi Educational Foundation (JREF) Forum, to whom I am indebted for the use of much of this material.

We’ve all heard the “official conspiracy theory” of the Death Star attack. We all know about Luke Skywalker and his ragtag bunch of rebels, how they mounted a foolhardy attack on the most powerful, well-defended battle station ever built. And we’ve all seen the video over, and over, and over, of the one-in-a-million shot that resulted in a massive chain reaction that not just damaged, but completely obliterated that massive technological wonder.

Like many citizens of the Empire, I was fed this story when I was growing up. But as I watched the video, I began to realize that all was not as it seemed. And the more I questioned the official story, the deeper into the rabbit hole I went.

Presented here are some of the results of my soul-searching regarding this painful event. Like many citizens, I have many questions that I would like answered: was the mighty Imperial government really too incompetent to prevent a handful of untrained nerf-herders from destroying one of their most prized assets? Or are they hiding something from us? Who was really behind the attack? Why did they want the Death Star destroyed? No matter what the answers, we have a problem.

Below is a summary of my book, Uncomfortable Questions: An Analysis of the Death Star Attack, which presents compelling evidence that we all may be the victims of a fraud of immense proportions.


Uncomfortable Questions about the Death Star Attack

The cover of Uncomfortable Questions: An Analysis of the Death Star Attack


1) Why were a handful of rebel fighters able to penetrate the defenses of a battle station that had the capability of destroying an entire planet and the defenses to ward off several fleets of battle ships?

2) Why did Grand Moff Tarkin refuse to deploy the station’s large fleet of TIE Fighters until it was too late? Was he acting on orders from somebody to not shoot down the rebel attack force? If so, who, and why?

3) Why was the rebel pilot who supposedly destroyed the Death Star reported to be on the Death Star days, maybe hours, prior to its destruction? Why was he allowed to escape, and why were several individuals dressed in Stormtrooper uniforms seen helping him?

4) Why has there not been an investigation into allegations that Darth Vader, the second-ranking member of the Imperial Government, is in fact the father of the pilot who allegedly destroyed the Death Star?

5) Why did Lord Vader decide to break all protocols and personally pilot a lightly armored TIE Fighter? Conveniently, this placed Lord Vader outside of the Death Star when it was destroyed, where he was also conveniently able to escape from a large-sized rebel fleet that had just routed the Imperial forces. Why would Lord Vader, one of the highest ranking members of the Imperial Government, suddenly decide to fly away from the Death Star in the middle of a battle? Did he know something that the rest of the Imperial Navy didn’t?

Emperor Palpatine fails to act after being informed of the attack


6) How could any pilot shoot a missile into a 2 meter-wide exhaust port, let alone a pilot with no formal training, whose only claim to fame was his ability to “bullseye womprats” on Tatooine? This shot, according to one pilot, would be “impossible, even for a computer.” Yet, according to additional evidence, the pilot who allegedly fired the missile turned off his targeting computer when he was supposedly firing the shot that destroyed the Death Star. Why have these discrepancies never been investigated, let alone explained?

7) Why has their been no investigation into evidence that the droids who provided the rebels with the Death Star plans were once owned by none other than Lord Vader himself, and were found, conveniently, by the pilot who destroyed the Death Star, and who is also believed to be Lord Vader’s son? Evidence also shows that the droids were brought to one Ben Kenobi, who, records indicate, was Darth Vader’s teacher many years earlier! Are all these personal connections between the conspirators and a key figure in the Imperial government supposed to be coincidences?

8) How could a single missile destroy a battle station the size of a moon? No records, anywhere, show that any battle station or capital ship has ever been destroyed by a single missile. Furthermore, analysis of the tape of the last moments of the Death Star show numerous small explosions along its surface, prior to it exploding completely! Why does all evidence indicate that strategically placed explosives, not a single missile, is what destroyed the Death Star?

Saturday SURPRISE




















































Red devized a fatastic surprise party for Jonny's Birthday. Apparently it was weeks in the making...invitations and Momma had the role of Diversionary tactics. It was flawlessly executed. Momma had asked weeks ago, while Red and jonny were visiting Our Grandest of Grandmothers Verna
( The most beautiful woman you could meet in a thousand lifetimes, and the closest thing to a saint us mere mortals could meet.)
....if she could take Jonny out on a birthday lunch...
Jonny said "of coarse"....( because he loves her and her company)
So Yesterday she shows up, and she suggests they go out for a drive to take pictures of Barns. Jonny loves the idea since Red and Jonny have been talking about doing that for ages. But Red, woke up feeling sick. and no amount of coaxing could make her feel better to come with....
( an Oscar winning performance if there ever was one)

So Jonny and Momma go for a drive....the slowest drive EVER. (I'd be amazed if the car ever went over 30.) Took some great pictures and saw parts of the area Jonny had never seen.
We stopped by our local for some beer/wine and snacks. Momma was concerned about Red, so Jonny phoned from the pub to see how she was....For some strange reason..Red wanted them to get their food to go and come home. Jonny was surprised and actually commented to momma how he thought he knew Red better than that, and he was sorry for supposing that she would want us to take our time. On the way out, Jonny wanted to check out the new local book store, Momma said okay. Jonny talked for a bit with the store owner...and then Jonny saw a book with the title of his favorite "SMITH'S" song -Girlfriend in a Coma- Jonny tried to buy it, but Momma insisted on paying for it. The store owner commented that Jonny was the first person to reference the Smiths in his store. :]

In the car they get, Momma driving like an insane toronto driver trapped in a small town.; laughing all the way back to the house.
Jonny opens the door, calls out to red " we're home!"
"I'm in the kitchen" yells Red.
Jonny thought that was weird. He climbs the stairs when all of a sudden a kitchen full of friends yells out
SURPRISE!!!!
Friends family everyone who matters was there....it was awsome!
Biggest surprise of all.. Dawn was there too!. WOW!
(We'd been trying to hang out with her for about a year)
If you're looking for the Best wife in the world-She's married to Jonny.
We all had lots of fun, people even brought presents....mostly Star wars toys ( Meg and Mike got him an AT-AT!). Red bought Jonny a Fred Perry...( a beautiful argyle F.P) and Momma and Michael bought Jonny a bottle of absinthe! ( Jonnys favorite drink) There was lots of food and drink...good music and lots of laughter. Matt, Katie and Eliza came and slept over.... It was all just fantastic. ( we woke them up at 7:30 to wach Corrie) hehehe.
