Old information, Clancy is turning into such a has been.

Won't even let his villains be villains have to be proto nazis.

In The Sum Of All Fears, that was to simplify the story line so it could be made into a normal length movie. Actually, the Saudis and other mainstream Moslems were the "good guys" in the book, our allies against the fanatics. Clancy even took a shot at the ultra-nationalist Israelis.

Old information, Clancy is turning into such a has been. Won't even let his villains be villains have to be proto nazis....I had heard a lot of the stories of operations by the CIA and military before, but not about the actual interaction with the Pope - Clancy made it sound as though there literally was collusion between Casey and the Reagan forces and the Papacy - non-separation of Church and State at the highest level, so to speak....

The proto-nazi business I guess comes from the revisions in Clancy's Sum of All Fears made by the movie producers because they didn't want to offend the Islamic fanaticists who Clancy had included in his original book. I once heard him explain that although he didn't like that change as made in the movie, he had sold the book to the producers and didn't have a right to any say in what they did with it. It did seem like a pretty wussie cop-out from somebody who otherwise seems so aggressively proud of his writing.....

One of his earliest goals as President, Reagan says, was to recognize the Vatican as a state "and make them an ally."...very interesting info - it had never quite sunk into my thick skull before that, while Reagan and the Pope were clearly working along the same paths toward the same goals, they were in effect in cahoots as they went - certainly helps put the lie to the infuriating nonsense I keep hearing from the lefties on the tube today that Reagan was passively, merely "fortunate to be in office when the USSR collapsed".....

First herd about the interactions about three years ago.

That is why I say is becoming such a has been.

During a microphone check President Reagan joked he "signed legislation that would outlaw Russia forever. We begin bombing in 5 minutes

I liked that also.

I wonder what kept McDonald's enemies from shooting him on a streetcorner, drive-by style (or equivalent) instead of waiting to get him in an elaborate airline plot

Who knows? Perhaps it was all planned out, and they were more afraid of taking out a charismatic American leader on American soil, than they were of murdering him with 300 other people thousands of miles away from America.

At the very least, I beleive that they knew where McDonald was 24/7 and they did not want him to ever achieve a higher office. Maybe KAL 700 going down was just a coincendence, or maybe the guy that gave the final shootdown order knew who was on the plane, and that pushed him over the edge to make the decision. We may never know.

Bill Ayers Weather Underground ping

In 1946, Reagan was targeted for assassination, as were his children. Things became so heated that he spent nights sitting up with a loaded .32 gun guarding his family. Tensions over Reagan's run-in with the Left may have contributed to his divorce from actress Jane Wyman.

In 1969, when he was governor of California, radicals came within inches of firebombing the Reagans' home in Sacramento. Gunshots fired by alert guards prevented the bombing.

The Weather Underground had made killing Reagan a top priority and even kept a bullet with his name on it at its secret headquarters.

In 1976, radicals fearing that Reagan would win the presidency plotted to kill him, with the probable help of Cuban intelligence agents.

And in 1983, while he was president, the North Koreans tried to kill him during his historic visit to the Korean DMZ.

I guess the bullet would go well with the ring made of metal from a downed US aircraft-- the ring that the WUO was given by the North Vietnamese.

That was interesting.

First thought:
The difference between the good guys and the
bad guys is clear — no mushy middle — no gray area.

Thanks for the post piasa.

Longtime OBAMA backer BILL AYERS, Founder of the terrorist WEATHER UNDERGROUND that targeted the lives of the REAGAN Family, also backed a hostile Communist takeover of a then Free South Vietnam during the Vietnam War.

Bringing down on a once Free South Vietnamese people a most horrid:

“In January 1982, President Ronald Reagan approved a CIA plan to sabotage the economy of the Soviet Union through covert transfers of technology that contained hidden malfunctions, including software that later triggered a huge explosion in a Siberian natural gas pipeline”

Cool! Worthy of Ragnar Danneskjöld. Ayn Rand was too dense to realize that the Gipper should have been one of her heros.

Bill Ayers will meet a fitting end.
