That whole movie is about how the Jedi completely lost their way from millennia of stagnation to the point that they couldn't recognize the sith in their midsts anymore, and how their own well meaning influence contributed to their own downfall.
The Jedi were a death cult of religious fanatics who coerced child soldiers into fighting their wars of conquest.
Time for a Star Wars supercut with The Jedi Theme and Imperial March flipped to the other sides.

“Do. Or do not. There is no try.”

I always took it as Yoda unwittingly revealing himself as a Sith Lord. I mean, how much do we really know about this little fella's shady past? :D
