Did you miss this part?
As part of the drills, the US military said on Monday that it would practice evacuating noncombatant Americans out of South Korea in the event of war and other emergencies, the NYT reported.
C-Mag was referring to actually pulling U.S. citizens out of S.K. and yes when that happens the bombs will be flying for sure. However we should be concerned that they are actually drilling for the evacuation of U.S. citizens. I will also say this, a titanium plant in Ohio on the Ohio river has been running like mad for about a year now. I have friends that work there and the last time they were this busy (actually they're busier now) was right before the invasion of Iraq and the time before that was right before the Gulf War. Take from that what you will but to me where there's smoke there's fire.
Why include a "decapitation team" on a submarine for drills? Wtf are they supposed to do there, practice waiting?
Odds running 3-1 that fat boy is thinking around a bullet, by end of week. That 'evacuation drill' will actually be an evacuation.

Why do you think I brought up the titanium plant?
There is a time for good men to do bad things.
For fuck sake, 1984 is NOT an instruction manual!

Routine exercise, there is no SOF decapitation option in Pyongyang, place the Tom Clancy novel on the deck, and step away.

The only decapitation plan in play, is that they would rain ordinance down on Pyongyang and hope that they hit something leadership target related, the ROK has a "decapitation unit", but there's no SOF therein, it's all cruise and ballistic missiles. F-15K's with Taurus and land launched Hyunmoo-2's.
That's just for propaganda tho, zero chance of that succeeding, the only good way to get them down in their bunkers, would be to use B61's and B83's. The real "decapitation unit" is B1 and B2, bringing the tac nukes in bunkerbuster mode.

Quick, what's the difference between the leader of a heavily militarized country, and some private citizen terrorist without an army and without the support or leadership of any government?
Fame is not flattery. Respect is not agreement.

There is no difference, "Everything else is virtually identical".

I'm not saying that it makes tactical sense. Just think like a neocon for a moment.
Bad guy talks bad and does bad thing.
His people must hate his ass.
Let's kill him, and they'll welcome us as liberators.
We have sneaky big guys with guns.
We can use nucular submarine too!
USA will be hero, and flags will stop burning across teh globe.
Moar moneys for the districts to build new bombs.
We be Great Again!
