This would be a good time to use the hypervelocity rod bundles, AKA “Rods of God” - if we do have them deployed. There was speculation that the Tianjin explosion was a U.S. space-based weapons test involving a “Rod of God” weapon dropped from orbit. Dear Leader needs to be hit with a big stick.

From “Natural News” :

Conclusion: The Rod of God concept seems feasible, but we can’t know the Pentagon’s secrets to confirm it
Here, I’ve shown that the kinetic energy delivered by a “Rod of God” weapon could reasonably match the first explosion observed in TianJin. I’ve also explained why the orbital velocity and atmospheric re-entry objections are not show-stoppers.

The biggest question, in my opinion, is whether a rod can survive the extremely high forces of friction with the atmosphere as it plummets toward its target at very high velocities (Mach 12, for example). This is primarily a materials question, and there’s no way we can know for sure what sort of exotic materials the Pentagon has developed.

One thing we can know with 100% certainty, however, is that the Pentagon doesn’t publicly disclose its space weapons secrets. If it does possess a Rod of God space weapon, it sure isn’t going to announce it to anyone. Especially given how amazingly useful such a weapon would be for the stealth striking of enemy targets anywhere on the planet.

Remember: if this weapon exists, it puts a weapon on target while producing no apparent launch signature. This is, in every way, a stealth weapon that no one can stop once it’s launched. You wouldn’t even be able to see it approaching, either. Dropping through the atmosphere at Mach 12, it would strike the target like a bolt from the heavens, causing enormous destruction and leaving quite a large crater in the ground, just like we saw at Tianjin.

It would be neat to see Kim impaled.
