NEW YORK, NY - Whoopi Goldberg is in hot water once again after claiming that Emperor Palpatine's controversial "Order 66", which instructed his Clone troopers to murder all the Jedi in the galaxy, "wasn't about the Jedi."
Goldberg made the comments on a recent episode of The View and was quickly suspended by ABC.
"The Jedi claim they're oppressed, but it wasn't about their religion," she said. "It's just, you know, it's about hatred and an ethnicity dispute, is all. It didn't have anything to do with their being Jedi and Palpatine wanting to 'wipe them out' or anything like that. That's a common misconception."
According to Goldberg, Order 66 was a complex executive order and came about due to a variety of factors, from supply chain shortages affecting power converter availability
