Good riddance

You shouldn't celebrate the killings of heads of state, that would set a bad precedent.

  • How is it bad? Imagine a world where instead of sending hundreds of thousands young men to die, countries would just launch targeted attacks on the head of enemy's state.

  • Quite the opposite - if they know they are risking their lives they would be more reasonable.

    • It's the stated reason why the United States has an impeachment process. So that they have a process for removing undesirable heads of state without resorting to assassination.
