- "We're not doing enough."
"Since the Battle of Yavin and the destruction of the Death Star, the Rebel Alliance has staged more than a dozen different attacks on almost as many worlds. We've bombed the shipyards at Kuat and the supply base on Imdaar. […] I'm not sure what else we could possibly be doing." - ―Leia Organa and Gial Ackbar
In 0 ABY,[2] after the Rebel Alliance destroyed the Galactic Empire's Death Star[1] superweapon,[3] the Alliance carried out a bombing of an Imperial supply base on the world Imdaar. The bombing was one of over a dozen attacks undertaken by the Rebel Alliance during the Galactic Civil War against the Empire in an attempt to capitalize on a wounded Empire following the Death Star's destruction.[1]
Later that year,[2] while in a meeting of Rebel Alliance leaders, Princess Leia Organa stated her belief the Rebel Alliance had not been doing enough against the Empire. In response, Admiral[1] Gial Ackbar[3] used the Imdaar bombing as an example of the Alliance's actions after the Death Star's destruction, noting[1] he[3] was not sure what more they could be doing.[1]
Behind the scenes[]
