Brazil Still Possible Filming Location for “Breaking Dawn”

In the wake of countless reports about filming being delayed following a hostage situation in a Brazilian hotel last week in which 35 people were held hostage by a drug ring, Deadbolt is reporting that Summit is still looking at locations in the country to film scenes for “Breaking Dawn”.  They report:

A spokesperson for Summit Entertainment revealed to Radar Online that filming Breaking Dawn in Brazil is still on the Twilight table. “The possibility of filming portions of The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn – Part 2 in Brazil has always been under consideration and we are continuing to scout locations within the country.”

I am still confused by these reports that Rob & Kristen will be filming scenes for “Breaking Dawn – Part 2” in Brazil.  Since Isle Esme takes place in the first half of the book, I would assume that it would be in the first of the two films and that the second installment would be rainforest scenes with Jasper and Alice seeking another vampire/human.  If the country is unsafe, why don’t they scout a safer location like in the Carribbean if they are looking for tropical scenes.  In all honesty, they could do rainforest shots there as well.
