Yeah, lucky them, they really need them, but would nobody ask questions where they came from?

Even the idiots in the Senate.

It's not like anybody could do anything about it. The Jedi eventually launched an investigation.

They launch the attack. Anti-aircraft missiles and flak fill the sky.

Obi-Wan: "It's as if they knew we were coming!"

Nobody ever looks into this.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Then you suddenly acquire a massive army that is kinda infinite. Regular soldiers were dying to the droid army and suddenly you got an entire army made up of clones of one man. Was ot suspicious, yes. Also the Senate was full of idiots.

from Mr. Plinkett's review:

So this movie’s called “Attack of the Clones”, so I guess we should talk about THAT shit, and what can laughingly be called the plot. So Count Dooku has bugs make robots so that the Republic gets scared, and then wants to make clones to fight the robots that the bugs made. But the clones were ALREADY being made before the robots were being made by the bugs. If you’re confused, don’t be ashamed. Even the writer of the film doesn’t understand it.
