Kill Kim? South Korea Has Assassination Plan If NKorea Nuke Threat Grows

South Korea has plans in place to kill North Korean President Kim Jong Un and take out nuclear facilities in the country if it feels threatened by nuclear weapons, South Korea’s defense minister admitted during a Parliament meeting this week.

“Yes, we do have such a plan,” defense minister Han Min-Koo said Wednesday when he was asked directly about military readiness to take out the dictator if it becomes necessary, CNN reported.

South Korea says it is prepared with elite troops and would use precision missiles to destroy nuclear facilities and take out key leadership.

The revelation comes as North Korea has conducted several nuclear tests in recent weeks despite opposition from many other countries, including the U.S. and South Korea. The fifth nuclear test took place Sept. 9.

According to the New York Daily News, the U.S. sent a pair of supersonic bombers to fly over South Korea again Wednesday as a show of solidarity with its ally.

Most are not surprised South Korea has a plan to kill Kim Jong Un in place, but some did not expect an honest answer from Min-Koo about the strategy.

Unsurprisingly, North Korea is fuming after hearing about the South Korean plans. “The US imperialists and the South Korean puppet warmongers anti-DPRK military provocations have pushed the situation on the Korean Peninsula to the uncontrollable and irreversible phase of the outbreak of nuclear war,” the Korean People’s Army General Staff said Thursday, according to The Daily Caller. 

Pyongyang threatened to destroy Guam if U.S. flyovers continue, but it is still developing the capabilities it would need to follow through on the threats.
