@Monty129 - I don't think he can necessarily see that far into the future, but Palpatine is like a master chess player. He may not know exactly what choices his opponents will make, but he's experienced enough to know the most likely outcomes of several possible scenarios. Combine that with his ability to "peek" into the future, and he can make some reasonable guesses as to how things will play out and make adjustments accordingly. Like Master Yoda stated, "Always in motion is the future." When dealing with sentient, passionate life-forms, there's always a possibility to be surprised.

| Aug 11, 2014 at 18:49 | comment | added | Monty129 | Can Palpatine see that far into the future though? Obviously he didn't (couldn't?) predict his own demise at his apprentice's hands, he couldn't even predict that Anakin would lose a considerable level of his connection to the Force once his body was damaged on Mustafaar. | |

Explained the question a bit more clearly, I hope.
