Parodying 9/11 truther series Loose Change, Graham Putnam creates a compelling argument that the destruction of the first Death Star was an inside job—orchestrated by none other than Darth Vader himself.

The repeated mispronunciations of "Alderaan" aside, this video, titled Luke's Change, is pretty great. It's not the first time that someone has joked that "The Death Star was an Inside Job," but it does a fantastic job of constructing a different narrative from the pieces of a familiar story.

Those terrorists lived in swamps and ice caves, how did they learn to fly such sophisticated fighters? And what about this ‘Yoda’ character. Didn’t he originally work for the Empire? He is just an operative doing the Empire’s bidding.

Don’t forget: the rebels are pseudo-Christian religious fundamentalists. Anikan Skywalker is also reportedly a member of this sect of religious fanatics who allegedly include a former General in the Empire. That General was also Anakin’s very own mentor!

Clearly an inside job!

Of course, not even the best parody cannot top the stupidity of the real thing.
