Yes in the book it was, I haven't seen the movie yet, but from what I hear I may just wait till it comes on video , and then wait till my local library gets it. If you haven't already done so, read the book. I found it a little slow in the middle but it picks up at the end. Very close to what's going on today considering it came out in the early 90s.
It came out in the 1990s, yes- but *borrowed* rather heavily from one from way back in 1975. And in the aftermath of the Olympic Massacre at Munich in 1972, the terrorists' Quisling friends in Hollywood hadn't all gotten on their knees yet.
