Actually, I support the imperials in star wars.
The rebels have such a ridiculously and impractically fluffy view of the universe. The imperialists are realists. The rebels on the other hand don't seem to appreciate that only the power is power, and no matter how much honor you have and how noble your goals, the universe doesn't give a damn.
It always annoys me so much in books and films when the good guys win from what is to any intelligent person a clearly untenable position, with a logistical nightmare, and yet they resoundingly and overwhelmingly crush the bad guts, with minimum casualties, except for one or two carefully chosen characters, who you know are as good as dead five minutes into the film/50pages into the book. God, why can't the bad guys win for once? At least it would provided a bit of variation.
