Boy, you got that right. Lucas should have hired the Bioware writers to come up with the Episode I and II stories instead of doing it himself. KOTOR was a terrific story--far superior to the prequel films, and probably far superior to Episode III.
What the US Military needs are some of those Imperial Walkers (AT-AT) that appeared during the Battle of Hoth scene in the "Empire Strikes Back". Could you imagine those things on the battlefield against the terrorists. We should develop some of those in real life!
Then again, the Protest Warriors could use the Walkers as well, keep those anarchists in check with their little protests...
