War on Two Fronts ~ From A Seppie POV

"A War on Two Fronts" episode of Star Wars: The Clone Wars started out with this fortune cookie:

It started with the usual characters

Obi-Wan Kenobi, Ahsoka Tano, Anakin Skywalker and Captain Rex

Captain Rex had a new uniform. Somewhat a precursor to the Imperial Uniform. But more rogue-rebel like.

***SPOILERS***

The quartet had gone to Onderon to assist the rebels fighting the Separatist Droid Army.

We are introduced to two new characters who are brother and sister - Saw Gerrera and Steela Gerrera:

Saw Gerrera

Steela Gerrera

And another character - Lux Bonteri from "A Friend In Need" in Season 4

Lux Bonteri

Together, these three formed the leadership of the rebels on Onderon. Some seems rather inept by the Jedi and Captain Rex. But for the rebels, they behaved like they did not really want assistance.

From A Separatist POV

In the very beginning, the Jedi Council disputed if they should train an insurgency to take over a legitimately established government. Obi-Wan Kenobi said that if the Jedi train them, they would be training terrorists. Anakin Skywalker disagreed. He thought their resources were so stretched out that having the Jedi fight for them would only make it harder for the other planets. Yoda agreed with Anakin. So off to Onderon they go.

The Separatists offer many valuable assets to governments that join them: Protection, Sovereignty and Freedom from the Core Planets.

Having being-to-being combat is taxing which the Republic has chosen to do. Droids are viable option for beings that are unable or unwilling to fight. Being as the creators of droids should not have to sully themselves in slogging fighting. What the Jedi did was promote terrorism toward an established government and risking the lives of the Onderonians.

From a Separatist Point of View - The Jedi put the lives of the Onderonian Rebels at risk in fighting Droid Technology. 

As a matter of fact, they're Sith...

The HOLOSEC: Social Holographic Electronic Interface Liaison Android (S.H.E.I.L.A.) reports from the Confederacy of Independent Systems from a "Separatist's Point of View" on the Season 5 trailer to Star Wars: The Clone Wars entitled, Revival and the fortune cookie is:

Features: Darth Maul, Savage Opress, Obi-Wan Kenobi, Adi Gallia, Hondo Ohnaka and Supreme Chancellor Palpatine

SPOILER ALERT! SPOILER ALERT! SPOILER ALERT! SPOILER ALERT!

Out of the gate, when the security droids approached, Darth Maul and Savage Opress easily removed them. What is interesting in the Clone Wars shows, the droid appear to "feel" things. But when Darth Maul and Savage Opress used the Force to trample them, the droids did not seem to respond to the crushing or they did not howl. Making this issue a trope one, perhaps?

Separatists Droids would not have been so easily conquered.

Then Darth Maul asserts his rule over his brother. That is when it is asked, why does Savage Opress have a skirt on?

Then we cut to the scene with Obi-Wan Kenobi and Adi Gallia. They land at the space station that were destroyed by Darth Maul and Savage Opress.

They speak to the warehouse supervisor that readily tells them the droids saw that the lightsabers were red. Next to casually, Obi-Wan replies:

Throughout this episode, the Jedi bring up Sith several times and no one really knows what a Sith is! It seems the Jedi do not either. But for the pirates, they have seen some things about the Sith and what they can do, but are not afraid of them.  Is this a revival regarding the Sith? What about the "rule of two" for the Sith? Is it a "revival" of sorts?

It may be a matter of strength in the Force.

Either way, it shows how easily the Sith can be defeated by rogue bands of pirates. 

An angry Sith fighting is not wise to have around. Frustration with a Sith fuels more anger and rampage.

Of course this entire arc is tied into the comic books, Shadow Conspiracy.

At any rate, both Jedi and Sith lose things. These scuffles with Darth Maul and Savage Opress in the crime world mean nothing to the Confederacy of Independent Systems!

In fact, Supreme Chancellor Palpatine of the Republic said so with just one look.

The future? Who knows, but the Separatists must deal with a new possible threat of rogue Sith capable of destroying the Droid Army. 

What was revived, here?
