Quem foi responsável pelo atentado no final de Mockingjay?

10

No final de Mockingjay (o livro e o filme da parte 2)

a hovercraft drops a bunch of parachutes into a group of children and some blow up. Then, after the rebel medics come in, the rest of the parachutes blow up.

Tanto no romance quanto no filme, nunca é declarado definitivamente quem é o responsável por isso. A suposição é que

President Coin was responsible.

No entanto, tenho minhas dúvidas. Por exemplo

those parachute bombs would have needed to be prepared ahead of time, but gathering the capitol citizens as human shields around the presidential mansion only happened shortly before the parachutes were dropped. Also, one of the reasons why Katniss believes it is Coin is that Snow claimed to not be responsible. How do we know Snow isn't just lying about it?

Está strongmente implícito que é Coin.

Quando Snow sugere que Coin foi o responsável, e Katniss começa a ponderar sobre isso, temos argumentos de que Snow não tem o motivo nem os meios para conduzir tal ataque. Moeda e os rebeldes têm ambos.

  • Quando Katniss conhece Snow, e ele planta a ideia de que foi Coin quem soltou as bombas, não ele, ele argumenta que jogar bombas nas crianças não cabe no seu MO:

    What he's said makes no sense. When they released the parachutes? "Well, you really didn't think I gave the order, did you? Forget the obvious fact that if I'd had a working hovercraft at my disposal, I'd have been using it to make an escape. But that aside, what purpose could it have served? We both know I'm not above killing children, but I'm not wasteful. I take life for very specific reasons. And there was no reason for me to destroy a pen full of Capitol children. None at all."

    Por outro lado, ele fornece um motivo muito plausível para o Coin:

    “I must concede it was a masterful move on Coin's part. The idea that I was bombing our own helpless children instantly snapped whatever frail allegiance my people still felt to me. There was no real resistance after that. Did you know it aired live? You can see Plutarch's hand there. And in the parachutes. Well, it's that sort of thinking that you look for in a Head Gamemaker, isn't it?” Snow dabs the corners of his mouth. “I'm sure he wasn't gunning for your sister, but these things happen.”

    (Eu acho que ele está sendo hipócrita com a última frase. Se fosse Coin, ela estava definitivamente procurando Prim - o objetivo deste exercício era comprometer a capacidade de Katniss de liderar os rebeldes, e levá-la diretamente para trás de Coin). / p>

  • Naturalmente, Katniss é tão cética quanto você:

    I refuse for this to be true. Some things even I can't survive. I utter my first words since my sister's death. “I don't believe you.”

    Snow shakes his head in mock disappointment. “Oh, my dear Miss Everdeen. I thought we had agreed not to lie to each other.”

    Claro, Snow ainda pode estar mentindo. Mas ele já perdeu a presidência e há uma sentença de morte em sua cabeça. Há muito pouco a ganhar continuando a mentir (e se ele estiver mentindo, evidências serão encontradas em contrário).

  • Quando ela sai da reunião, Katniss ainda está cética, mas está chegando à ideia de que os rebeldes podem ser responsáveis:

    Then what's nagging at me? Those double-exploding bombs, for one. It's not that the Capitol couldn't have the same weapon, it's just that I'm sure the rebels did. Gale and Beetee's brainchild. Then there's the fact that Snow made no escape attempt, when I know him to be the consummate survivor. It seems hard to believe he didn't have a retreat somewhere, some bunker stocked with provisions where he could live out the rest of his snaky little life. And finally, there's his assessment of Coin. What's irrefutable is that she's done exactly what he said. Let the Capitol and the districts run one another into the ground and then sauntered in to take power. Even if that was her plan, it doesn't mean she dropped those parachutes. Victory was already in her grasp. Everything was in her grasp.

    Sabemos que os rebeldes tinham tais bombas e presumivelmente tinham uma aeronave carregada com elas, prontas para serem usadas contra os soldados do Capitólio. Eles provavelmente não foram carregados com a intenção de matar as crianças do Capitólio, mas quando a oportunidade se apresentou, eles estavam prontos e esperando.

    É possível que o Capitólio tenha de fato construído armas semelhantes e as tenha armazenado antes do ataque. Mas o Capitólio nunca os usou - por quê? Parece mais provável que eles não tenham nenhum.

It was Alma Coin who ordered it. She wanted to make sure that Katniss keeps working with them against the president, so she killed prim and made it look like it was snows fault to fuel Katnisse´s hate.

nenhuma referência para isso, já que eu não tenho o livro aqui e não encontrei nada, então se alguém puder fornecer isso,
