I couldn't buy the journalist either. He must know how bad things were and he had nothing to gain by releasing that story.Given the extreme circumstances, I just don't believe that a respected journalist would undermine the government's efforts like that.
There was more at stake - they needed the fuel in order to adequately search for their missing men. Without the fuel, they had couldn't really proceed.The Mission: Impossible-esque set piece of invading President Peng's residence was well done, but it seems like there needed to be more at stake than just refueling access to justify such a bold move.
