    Both sides committed offenses that violated the Geneva Conventions. But while the Republic forces did things such as false surrenders and perfidy, the nonsense the Confedracy got up to was more akin to what the Nazis and Imperials did during World War II. This isn't a "both sides" argument as the Confederacy's offenses worse not just in degree but in kind as well. Just interesting to take note of.

      well the bad guys dont care and there is no one to stop then other than the good side. Republic did some minor war crimes, but doesn't seem to be a war crime in the universe.
      War Crimes in SW: -Slaves from work or citizens
      -Blowing up or making a planet useless
      -Disruptors
      -Genocide
      -Torture
      -Kidnapping and False Imprisonment
      -Burglary

      @Cool Myron the only people accused of war crimes in universe in star wars were republic officers in the clone wars (in legends), in canon no one has been accussed of war crimes. this crimes were genocide and executing prisoners, thus we know these are war crimes in star wars legends. anything else is pure speculation.
      P.S. the republic (atleast in legends) committed major warcrimes. such as Destruction of Pammant, where they cracked the planet core of Pammant (a separatist world). this took place before the battle of coruscant.

    CIS Defense Attorney:
    Ladies, Gentlemen & HRIDs of the jury, shall I remind you of the horrid acts carried out by the Republic.. Sending child slave soldiers into battle, alongside kidnapped & indoctrinated Jedi children, both led by tyrannical military officers & Zealot Adults.. Desperate times does not excuse the use of younglings, when the Republic had at their disposal, billions of military age adults from the Core worlds.. They’re reliance on younglings to fight their war, shows the very flaws in the Republic that led to this conflict..
    Now some of you will say, the CIS is responsible for killing billions of “innocent” Civilians.. I say to this, that if killing billions of Meatbags is worse then sending millions of mind controlled adolescents & thousands of teenaged missionaries into droid armies with the intelligence of a autonomous speeders with blasters, then I don’t know if any of you have a soul..

      Bit of both... The Separatist propaganda machine worked in overdrive to keep the population in fear of the Republic. But for a lot of the worlds in the CIS there just wasn't another option. Leaving would've left them cut off from important allies and trade routes, many systems were basically property to mega-corporations that ran the CIS, and even if they did decide that enough was enough... The CIS had a very large army and the sadism to make a very brutal example out of those worlds that would defy them...
      There were definitely plenty of worlds in the CIS that had no problem with committing war crimes and in deed many joined the CIS so they could be as brutal as possible with nobody to tell them no... but for a lot of worlds they were trapped in the CIS...

      Rooting for the Separatists is more like rooting for the Confederate States of America and not just because they were both confederacies. But the CIS are clearly based off the CSA. They were both led by extremely wealthy individuals who manipulated the poor and disenfranchised masses towards their own goals. In the case of the CIS, it was the Galactic Republic. In the case of the real life CSA, it was the federal government (or northern states). Both were also dependent on the exploitation of a group of people. The CIS exploited countless peoples and planets and slavery was legal. In the case of the CSA, African Americans were enslaved and slavery was legal.
