George Lucas reportedly based the plot of Star Wars: Episode III – Revenge of the Sith on the events of 9-11 and the actions of neocervatives. The film serves as an allegory for how leaders use manufactured terror attacks to transition from democratic chancellors to dictators. Current geopolitical events in the Middle East, including the manipulation of religious groups, are compared to the political maneuvering of Emperor Palpatine in the film.
