    We got the new Al-Qaeda number two!

    And we also got the new Al-Qaeda number two!

    [Drone fires Hellfire missile]

    And the ISIS number two!

    (looks around)

    How come all these fucking terrorists keep popping up?

    ISIS and al Qaeda are not North Korea and Iran. Basic Poly Sci 101 shit. You know, the course you prolly flunked.
    Yeah, we don't fire Hellfires at North Korea and Iran because they are sovereign states that could seriously fuck up the world, even without nukes. But I guess you knew that, since you took Poly Sci 101 at Lane Community College and all.
    Leaders of rogue nations should be legitimate targets.
    Sure. But what if they have hundreds of tons of VX and delivery systems within artillery range of the world's fourth largest city?
    Kim Jong Un's fat ass could easily be assassinated as he makes numerous public appearances. No one would start WW3 on account of him.

    except the North Koreans and the fucking Chinese. Or I guess you're okay with millions of dead Koreans when the NK's VX the fuck out of Seoul, just to kill one fat rich kid?

    There's a reason we stopped the policy of offing leaders. We kept missing Castro. They didn't

    North Korea would be nuked in return. They know that, and wouldn't retaliate like that just to strike back for Kim Jong Un's assassination.

    Why wouldn't #2 step up and become instantly friendly?

    That is the most likely scenario after a shocking "shit just got real up in here" moment for DPRK. Question is who do they instantly become friendly with?

    Apparently everyone here failed Poly Sci 101 at Lane Community College, except Race.

    First, our "hit" to "miss" rate with Hellfire missiles and idiot Arab terrorists isn't great. It's going to be even worse in North Korea for a lot of reasons. Mountains, air defenses, and bunkers come to mind.

    Second, NK is denied airspace. The Predator flies at about 130 miles per hour. The NKs have a decent air force. They would shoot the fuckers down, and call it an act of war (and they'd be right, for once)

    Third, China has the NK's back. They did in 1950 and they do now. China does not want to see a powerful US-client Korean state on the Yalu River. And they won't, because China is an actual superpower and shit.

    Fourth, even if we? got the fat kid, the NKs would find someone else. Their country was supposed to collapse when Kim Jong-Il kicked the can, but Fat Kid stepped up to the plate. Any overt military action would just cause the NKs to hunker down in their bunkers and rocket the fuck out of Seoul. The world's fourth largest city.

    The stupid here is so thick you can cut it with a fucking knife.

    Agree with point three. IMO there is serious risk of negative outcomes if the fat kid were removed without prior coordination with China and the remaining DPRK leaders.

    The rest contains stupid assumptions thick enough to cut with a fucking knife.
