Well this does in some twisted way make sense, since the FBI is looking into links between Islamic jihadists and Neo-Nazis. There ARE similarities. But it's not good drama. The fact is books get changed a great deal in the transition to screen. But this one is clearly being done so as not to 'offend'.

could have easily modified this one,,,,,,Islamic Jihadist main villains team with a few neos from Europe and a sprinkling of neos from America....maybe even some Mumia Jamal or Farrakhan Lts getting in.........nah, too much realism lol.

I'm sill confused why they changed the bad guys so as not to offend. Islamic jihadists setting off a nuclear bomb in the US would have been a huge draw for Arabs. As we've seen from 9-11, they tend to cheer and praise their god when Americans die.
