US and South Korea Conduct Training Simulating Assassination of Kim Jong Un

By Kyle Anzalone | The Libertarian Institute | January 3, 2024

A top South Korean defense official said Washington and Seoul have considered assassinating the North Korean leader. The simulations have gone as far as joint special operations training missions.

South Korean Defense Minister Shin Won-sik explained to reporters last month that the deployment of US nuclear weapons or the assassination of North Korean Supreme Leader Kim Jong Un were options being discussed between Washington and Seoul.

“While it is difficult to openly discuss decapitation, the ROK-US special operation forces are… conducting training,” Won-sik said. “This training is for aerial maneuvers, raids on key facilities, and indoor mop-up.”

The Daily Beast first reported the US and South Korea would conduct the decapitation war games in August 2022.

Since President Joe Biden took office, tensions have risen sharply on the Korean Peninsula. The current administration has abandoned the Donald Trump-era diplomacy with Pyongyang. Biden has deployed some of America’s most advanced weapons to the region and ramped up military engagements with South Korea.

Pyongyang has responded to Washington’s provocations by stepping up its military capabilities. North Korea has conducted several missile tests, including with intercontinental ballistic missiles. Pyongyang successfully placed a military satellite into orbit in 2023 and plans three more this year.

Kim and other top North Korean officials warned several times last year that the US and South Korean military activities have put the Peninsula on the brink of a nuclear war. During a major address, Kim explained Pyongyang would further its nuclear weapons program during the coming year.

  1. I have my own ‘little list’.
    I can think of at least 1,000 people whose demise would greatly improve the general planetary level of happiness.
    In addition, I have Marx’s list.
    Karl Marx stated:
    “There can be no solution of the problems of the world without the destruction of the Jews and their religion, Judaism. ”
    Then there is the Israeli list :
    Abodah Zara 26b:“Even the best of the Gentiles should be killed.”
    Klu Klux Clan had a list.
    The King Singers of Oxford sang a song about ‘short people’.

    And of course there are “Gingers”.
    The Georgia Guidestones set a target and there vast swathes of people we have to get rid of to reach that goal.
