Close act II

The next day Binks let the Senator go to the Senate, though he still had a backlog of messages to deal with, apparently his short stint as a representative, he managed to pick up some fans. One thing he did have on his schedule was to make an appearance with the Chancellor, and a few chosen Senators to view the official send-off of the Clone Battalions of the GAR. It was during this ceremony that it really hit Jar Jar, this was it, the clone wars had really begun.

The Jedi were immediately tapped as leaders and special forces to spearhead the clone troops, even though they had next to no experience with dealing with a War, they had more experience than anyone else then select Mandalorians... and with the planet, Mando current pacifist leaning, asking them to lead a war would be counter-intuitive. As the Jedi had been the go-to option for dealing with possibly and definitely hostile and violent situations, they were the first group that those in power looked towards to save them.

With the recent political upheavals and turmoil, it was suggested that he should help the GAR, politely enhanced by a reminder that he was at one point a general with the Gungan army. There was a flurry of messages back and forth, and soon enough Binks found his status reactivated and that he was in charge of the 1st Naboo irregulars, mostly made up of Gungans looking for adventure, and a smattering of other Naboo citizens that could not sit idly by with the events that were happening. One idea that Jar Jar did manage to plant in the minds of the Naboo higher up, was that they could send some support by sponsoring a section of clones. This idea of sponsoring and "adopting" groups of clones would grow during the war, and it was estimated that by the end of the conflict, as much as 40% of all clone troops would end up wearing a small symbol of various planets and organizations that sponsored them. But Binks did not know the effects of his actions, and so he prepared to travel with the troops.

He would be pleasantly surprised that his first deployment would be as a senatorial observer/representative, to help deal with the very touchy matter of how the Hutts would react to the war.
