Did the Jedi commit treason against the Galactic Republic?


The Jedi attempted to overthrow the elected Supreme Chancellor of the Republic with force of arms. Did they commit treason?

Huh. I guess it was treason. The Jedi were acting as a paramilitary force under the Republic fighting the CIS but then they found out the leader of the CIS was also the leader of the Republic... itd be like if a platoon of WW2 soldiers found out Hitler and the President were the same person.

The Jedi as a whole? No, that is Palpatine's propaganda.

Mace Windu committed treason when he attempted to execute the Chancellor without a trial, but the mission that day was to arrest Palpatine on his suspected crimes, which I believe is within their judicial authority as space police samurai monks.

mace windu was also on the high council, thus it could be reasonably construed that his actions were that of jedi high command, thus giving a casus belli against the entire organization
