Yeah, Debt of Honor did foreshadow how planes could be used as a weapon.

Speaking of Clancy, it was kind of weird how the movie version of The Sum of all Fears replaced Muslim extremists with neo-nazis ... I'm assuming it was the studios decision so they wouldn't offend the Muslim population ... although I would argue getting your group replaced with neo-nazis may be a bigger insult.

But that movie sucked anyways ... I guess they just decided to offend everybody with a crappy movie to the point that Clancy's silver-screen success was killed off.

You're assuming folks actually read. (If you never read the book, you would not know that fact).

and the bomb shelters in people's home

had one

If i ever hit the lotto i'm building one, been designing it in my head ever since i seen,
"The Day After" starring John Lithgow 1983



Scared the Hell out of me, stayed up all night calculating how far from Manhattan i lived and where the blast zone was. I used a ruler, my dad's road map and multiplication, i was 9. Once i figured out i was safe i prayed the Russians were acurate and went to sleep.

You were quite the 9 year old I'm impressed!

I haven't thought of our bomb shelter since this movie ... which I love

"Why are we dropping Da Bomb on Iraq if it's only Saddam we're after?" Peter Strosser, 37, said. "If Da Bomb is dropped on Baghdad, the bootys of countless innocent Iraqi civilians will be tragically loosened. Is that what we want, to turn millions of decent, reserved Iraqis into free-spirited, dance-crazed party people? I think not."




i think so.

exactly!
hopefully we will get there one day.


the article says these things are for busting bunkers. really, what is kept in bunkers during war time besides supplies and the leaders of the country? to me this seems like an excessive way of assassinating a foreign leader with waaaay too much potential for extreme collateral damage and death....these things should be illegal.
