For a minute, I know you have contemplated this before, imagine you want to steal something from a store. How would you do it? Personally I would create a diversion on the other side of the store and then take it real quick. If i am not satisfied with my steal i would create a diversion, like a fire, so I can take as much as i want, as long as the fire burned. Right?

Okay, now let's put this into the real world. Create an area of instability so that the press would have to have military escorts. Does this remind you of anything?
