If you are paranoid, the timing of every event, everywhere, worldwide, is suspect and obviously connected to [insert conspiracy of the day here].
I can speak from experience when I say that it is never beneficial to ask "why" in these sorts of matters. Even when you're involved directly on the ground, you'll never get concrete answers unless enough solid, credible intelligence is gathered analyzed and thoroughly investigated. The bad thing about people sneaking around and doing sneaky shit is just that.. they are sneaking around and doing sneaky shit... always working hard to conceal the answer to the only question that matters - "why".
Not saying there is or isn't a good answer or that it isn't known by those who need to know, i'm just saying it's the most difficult and often most futile question to attempt to ask and attempt to answer. Particularly when each single event is part of a much larger, far reaching, long term plan to achieve an objective over a span of years like destabilizing a government or economy or political system and one that is not directly dependent on any single event.
