Star Wars order 66 reasons and why?

Why did the Clone Troopers have to follow orders anyway?.How were they programed or taught or born or what ever to betray the jedi and how?.

because i find it weird if you look at the relationship between Commander Cody and Obi-wan.Its really respectfull and in the movie when order 66 is orderd cody orderd an atte to fire at Obi Wan.
Then later he says he wants to see a bodie.

To me its weird some clone troopers have feelings and others are order to do what they were born to do.If they were born to fight for the repbulic then why are they killing their own geneals or so forth?

I love the short-sighted answer I see to this question every time it’s asked…

Order 66 was among a list of General Orders every Clone had trained and programmed into them. They are to follow the general orders without question. Order 66 is one of those situational orders that is not to be acted upon until the word is given. This was all part of the accelerated education we see a glimpse of during Episode II. (There’s no chips in their heads or pheremonal trigger or any of the wild theories I keep seeing.)

Anyway, the Clones go into the War knowing that the time may come when they must execute Order 66 and exterminate the Jedi they’re working with. That’s just an order like any other. As far as they’re concerned, the Jedi are considered a potential threat to peace and the Order is in place as a failsafe if they need to ensure the safety of the Republic. And since Clones are bred and educated to have little free-will, they aren’t expected to make a judgement call on any order.

They’re the answer to the Droids of the Separatists. Essentially, they’re the same thing. Since they were bred and grown, not naturally conceived and born, their lot is little more than an organic version of droids. As such, they really only exist to serve in the Grand Army of the Republic.

However, there was at least one squad of Clones who disobeyed the order. In the book Dark Lord, a squad of Clones refuse to kill their Jedi general and he escapes the planet and survives Order 66.
