Wow, sounds amazing.

Think back to your Junor High class. Who would you befriend? Who would you take out?

My weapon (and of course a couple girls whom I protect and in return I get some). Everyone.

Just for your information, Battle Royale 2 is out.

Here is a summary of it:

It's three years after the events of the original Battle Royale, and Shuya Nanahara is now an internationally-known terrorist determined to bring down the government. His terrorist group, Wild Seven, stages an attack that levels several buildings in Tokyo on Christmas Day, killing 8000 people.

Exactly one year afterward, the government enacts the "New Century Terrorist Counter-Measure Alternative" program, a.k.a. the BRII act, and sends the forty-two students of Shikanotoride Junior High Class 3-B to hunt Nanahara and his cohorts down in their island stronghold. Shiori Kitano, the daughter of the late headmaster of Nanahara's Battle Royale, signs up for the program, to avenge her father.

In order for the government to study the benefits of "teamwork," the new students work in pairs, with their collars electronically linked so that if one of them is killed, the other dies as well. They must kill Nanahara in three days--or die.

It's great, I recommend you go watch both BR & BRII

So, to kill a terrorist, they take 42 hischoolers , put them on an island, and have bomb collars put on their necks?

Basicially....Yes.

They are all kitted out in full military equipments, so they aren't going in with just pans and knives.

I think they are really just expendable cannon fodder, the army moves in to clean up after them if they succeed.
