jlf1961 -> Game of thrones proves one thing (okay a bunch of things) (8/7/2017 12:30:34 AM)

That the Lannisters are most decidedly Brits, as evidenced by their overwhelming desire to kill dragons.
Please note that I did not mention or use the incestus relationship between Jaime and Cersie as proof, even Brits wouldn't stoop that low I hope.
And of course, it proved that being a good leader does not always mean they have good common sense, <spoiler alert> Daenerys landing her wounded dragon in the middle of a battle where the enemy want to see her skewered and roasting on a spit proved that.
Of course Jaime charging said dragon on a horse with a lance and failing to realize the beast can still breathe fire brings a new meaning to 'stupidly brave.'
Now, let's not forget the youngest Stark, who has clearly crossed the line from head strong little girl that wants to play with swords to budding serial killer (okay vengeance is a great motivator, but seriously, baking a man's kids into his bread?)
Getting back to Cersie, the queen of denial.
Look, she had the right idea, but it was her actions that led to the suicide of her youngest son, when she basically barbequed his wife (along with a third of King's Landing) in the most classic case of over kill (again proving the family is decidedly brit, I mean the RAF developed the grand slam bomb to knock out sub pens AFTER they had pretty much wiped out the Uboat force.)
Of the entire Lannister family, Tyrion is the only redeeming one of the bunch.
But more to the point, if Daenerys really wants to win the war in a very fast and decisive way, all she has to do is figure out how to get Arya into the palace at King's Landing and let her go to town.
She would not need to risk the dragons, or her armies, or spend a lot of money.
