Sidious evokes the help of his apprentice Darth Tyranus. Sidious tells Tyranus to hire Sifo-Dyas, a Jedi who shares his sentiments that "the Jedi aren't what they used to be" or whatever.
They use Sifo-Dyas as a scape-goat to order the clone army on Kamino. Sifo tells the long-necked-aliens that the order is from the senate, and for whatever reason, the long-necked-aliens believe him on his word, and instantly set about making the clones.
So Tyranus chooses the bounty hunter Jango Fett as the clone blueprint. Tells Jango all about the plan to overthrow the Jedi. But before that, Sidious orders Tyranus to slay Sifo-Dyas.
Apparently, Sifo was a scape-goat. Apparently. Obviously.
This is my question:
What's the point?
Dooku under the guise of Darth Tyranus could have went and ordered the clone army himself. It's obvious that by that time, Dooku had already left the Jedi Order, so no one would have connected him to being the one who ordered the army! And on top of that, apparently Dooku felt secure enough to spill the beans to Jango Fett!
Was Sifo-Dyas just another useless character to thicken the storyline, and make it even more heavy? I don't get it.
