Oh noes, not a super mighty strike!

Seriously, we need to change our laws about assasinating heads of state in certain circumstances. This problem begs for a rapier, not a sledgehammer.

From what I've read here, there is no law concerning the assassination of foreign heads of state. There is an executive order written by Jimmy Carter, forbidding the practice.

We already have the law we need. If Congress declares war, the enemy leader is fair game.

“This problem begs for a rapier, not a sledgehammer.”

Sometimes there’s just no kill like overkill.
