    I'd say yes. Because like Snoke is using Kylo, so was Palps using Anakin. He played on Anakin's dreams, attachment and never losing Padme and much more, but it was kind of like a self fullfilling prophecy. Anakin kind of caused Padme's death, or at least part of that reason.

    WHY? To kill him to see if he can revive himself. To see if he's a liar, which he might be. Or not, as the case might be.

    That's so wacky, that it makes total, 100% logical, sense!

    I'm almost of the view that Palpatine knew how to stop death, but refused to teach Anakin so the latter would remain under his control. After all, the main reason Anakin turned was to save Padme...and Palpatine likely feared the Chosen One would either leave or kill him if she lived. He openly admits to Yoda before their lightsaber fight, "Darth Vader will become more powerful than either of us."

    Neither of them understands what love is. What, sociopaths don't, think, they do? They don't. Understand? Yes no, what? Who could he love, ever at all, but his apprentice, who hated him?
    They hate, only
    only they hate, so what was hate, if you've never been in love?
    nothing,
    but agony for those who are

    I think he killed him because he Plagueis wouldn't tell him the secrets!
