David Letterman Calls on SEAL Team Six to Kill ‘Psychopath’ Putin

‘As outraged as we are, we ourselves are guilty of the same horrific nonsense ... this is a job for SEAL Team Six. Call them and kill the guy’

Letterman Calls on SEAL Team Six to Kill ‘Psychopath’ Putin (Mediaite)

The fact that Russian President Vladimir Putincould have had a hand in bringing down Malaysia Airlines Flight 17 over Ukraine and could escape any major consequences is seriously bothering David Letterman. Last night, during a discussion about the incident with CBS This Morning hostNorah O’Donnell, the Late Show host proposed a solution for how the U.S. should handle Putin: Send in SEAL Team Six.

The “stern warning” and sanctions that O’Donnell said the U.S. has delivered to Russia in the aftermath of the crash did not seem to be enough for Letterman, who was visibly frustrated and wanted more action. But then, playing devil’s advocate, he also brought up the Iranian passenger jet that the U.S. admitted to shooting down in 1988, but for which the country never apologized.

“As outraged as we are, we ourselves are guilty of the same horrific nonsense,” Letterman said, asking O’Donnell how that scenario was any different.
