Bobby,

I believe Mr. Clancy does a superior job of portraying reality. I just hope the good guys read it FIRST. Terrorists don't need new scenarios. </tinfoil off>

Dave Hunt in "Israel, Islam and Armageddon" (the video) quoted Tom Clancy as saying Islam is synonymous with "peace" ... Dave says this is an incredible statement in light of the unbroken record of terrorism in the last 30 years ... so I read this article with some skepticism ... I think Mr. Clancy makes statements for public consumption ... nonetheless, I was dismayed to see "Sum of All Fears" PC-smashed to become Russian Nationalists in the movie version ... somewhat different than that portrayed in the book ... no doubt, for PC purposes ...

regarding scenarious, yes, this is the danger when they are spoken of in public ... I am reminded that Patton read Rommel's book "The Tank in Battle" (approximately) before engaging Rommel ... and Rommel (or Rommel's men who had read the book as required reading) did exactly what he had stated as correct in the book ... (maybe this was Hollywood exaggerating?) ...
