I was wondering if nobody else got the reference ;)
"and putting The Thing in charge?" :D
But I have my own opinion. This is all about Americans taking action against rulers that are doing bad decisions about strategies of defense putting at risk their own people.
The act has to be done by Americans, Aria believes she is following the American constitution. This is referenced several times in the movie (ex: when they are in the store changing clothes what we see in the screen is supposed to be words from the American constitution).
I’m not an American, but we learn this from Nicolas Cage in “National Treasure”.
So is up to the American People to overthrown the government, and also mentioned in the movie, Aria thinks of itself as a part of the people.
I think the plot stands as is it based on a random character analysis to find compliance personalities (in the case of the girl). For the guy: there were at least two people that could block her plan the twin and Major Bowman. (I don’t remember what they called themselves) The plan was in motion only with the kid and mom concept, and was on that day so they all (the government) would be together. She had, from the beginning, permission to do it, as Aria considers herself “American people”. But one of the two (the twin) was cathing up to what Aria was planning and blocked it that’s why he died (he was not compliant) and that is why the twin was needed. Major Bowman could have been another person to block it but he was unaware.
The only other person that could overwrite her was the president, and that was what happened in the beginning and that was the moment she measuring all scenarios got to the conclusion that the government as bad for the country’s interest and safety and had to be overthrown.
For the rest: If I’m a computer I’ll be doing a backwards plan I need to kill them all, best to do it when together, this sets date, best way a bomb, I need one that is undetected, this sets means, this bomb needs to be activated by sound, being the national anthem is just poetic, its needed some way to reproduce the specific frequency, this leads to a musician, then it is picked the one that would probably be most compliant, the boy and mother scenario…
(And the fact that the jeweler is of Arab descent is only just poetic, he is a part of the plan exactly because Aria thinks of him as another American person with stone cutting abilities and compliant.)
