Russian Christian terrorists are apparently a major threat to America.
If I didn’t know better, I would think that Hollywood had some kind of left-wing agenda. But instead Hollywood is just depicting real life.
Like its attempt to make a Jack Ryan movie not based on a Tom Clancy movie, Jack Ryan: Shadow Recruit (currently at no. 4 after Ride Along, Lone Survivor and The Nut Job) which depicts the reality of terrorist sleeper cells operating out of Russian Orthodox churches in Dearborn.
A discerning viewer might notice that Russia essentially employs al-Qaeda tactics, of which would be ironic considering al-Qaeda’s affiliates have targeted Russia brutally in the past…
The desire for glory embodied in Cheverin’s evil machinations is colored with religious fervor. The entire operation is called “Lamentations,” and Cherevin asks for Divine favor for his impending plot in prayer during an Orthodox vesper.
The Midwest-based sleeper agents are activated of their tasks during a public reading of Lamentations 2:2 in the local Orthodox parish that the sleepers attend. It reads: “Without pity the Lord has swallowed up all the dwellings of Jacob; in his wrath he has torn down the strongholds of Daughter Judah. He has brought her kingdom and its princes down to the ground in dishonor.”
In the film, the Orthodox Church is a conduit to “bless” and commence Russia’s operations.
To do so, they awake “sleeper agents” in the U.S. by sending a cumbersome coded message through the Russian Orthodox Church… “Slava Bogu!” (thank god) one sleeper agent exclaims on catching the coded message.
So true to life.

Obama-asskisser Kevin Costner is starring in two new movies in which he plays a spy - Jack Ryan: Shadow Recruit and 3 Days to Kill. I’ll be avoiding both. Why put money in the pocket of a Democrat?
Maybe they should attack an embassy...
I heard somewhere that Mary Clancy got the rights to the early books in the divorce and soon thereafter Tom started working with leftists.
Maybe this movie, Sum of all Fears and many of his recent books match his views.
Maybe Mary wrote the more conservative early stories?
“The Russion Orthodox Church in the United States was predominantly ROCOR (absolutely anti-Moscow Patriarchate).
Wow, you’re completely wrong.
ROCOR has been in communion with the Moscow Patriarchate since May 2007.
Most Russian Orthodox in the USA are in the OCA, a group you didn’t mention. All 3 are in communion now.
Good explaination of why not. Thank you.
Oh, so NOW it’s okay to depict Russians as the bad guys.
No, the implication is right there, and obvious. They want it to be associated with Christians. PERIOD! Not Muslims, but Christians. This is another attempt by the movie industry to color the view of Americans, just like a recent article stated very clearly that movies do influence people to one political party. This is intentional and meant to forever eradicate conservative ideology, by making anything associated with Christianity look radical, wrong, selfish, immoral, debased, UnChristian. Even in some of the better movies and TV shows, the thread is still there and by making you feel for the aggrieved party, usually the ungodly person who is “mistreated by the so-called Christian, they are slowly moving people from trusting Christians ever again and starting to believe that everything Christians say is hypocritical or threatening. We don’t watch many movies at all. I feel like walking out of almost every single one of them. Even the better ones seem to think that in order to get a good critical review they have to bash Christians in some perceivable way. We should NOT be supporting them.
I know exactly where that is, on Merriman. They’re Chaldeans. And they’re persecuted in Iraq.
In ‘Gravity’ all the crap has started after ‘Russians’ fired missile at their defunct sattelite. In fact such an event took place in reality but it was ChiComs who destroyed that sattelite.
No I’m not. The post I was responding to was related to the Russian Church in the 1970s and 1980s.
Last I checked, 2007 is a tad later.
