Nothing in Star Wars can compare to Eru. And we have no doubt that Eru would intervene to protect his creations. He has done so literally every time they've been at true peril, when the power of the Valar was not sufficient.

In the First Age, the only reason Melko got so far was the duality of prides: Noldor and Valar. If the Noldor were not so proud, they would've accepted the judgement of the Valar and not doomed the Two Trees. And if the Valar were not so proud, then they would not have allowed all the beings of Middle Earth to suffer so just for the Fall of Feanor. When the Valar did intervene, then Melko stood no chance. That's why Eru did not intervene then.

In the Second Age, the Valar themselves were at peril. One of their own(note: own race, not subdenomination) was come to destroy them, with a mortal army far stronger than their own Elves. And so Iluvatar intervened. He, if we go by most complete lore, literally made the world round. Except incompletely so. The oceans curved back, falling away from Middle Earth. With them, the Royal Flotilla of Numenor sunk. Andor itself was consumed in the wrath of the sea which followed. Aman was left untouched, not falling with the sea, simply remaining where it was as Arda changed beneath it.

In the Third Age, he intervened twice(or perhaps once) more. Gandalf returned to Arda. And Gollum tipped. Small, but effective, methodry.

We've seen the might and awe of Iluvatar. We've also seen his cunning and ability to play underhanded. What if we.. combined the two? What would happen if every single reactor in the entire Imperial Fleet were to overload simultaneously? What would happen if the simply Willed the Empire away, as he Willed the Ainur into being? How can your turbolasers and tanks compare, in any way, shape, or form?
