Quoting: Nexus News "In an interesting turn of events that will start to happen, ambitious Russian president who wants to restore former glory and size of USSR will choose Ukraine as next victim after his plan for violent annexation of the Baltic countries failed. Russian plan is to finance such an ambitious and expensive undertaking by the sale of oil and gas, which would again return Russia among key players on the world political scene." [link to www.amazon.com] and this quote And while time is slowly running out, and America doesn’t have much options to peacefully prevent the Russian operation that will disturb the balance of power, Always, always it is about a hand full of Power crazed people willing to do anything to keep their place of power. As in the beginning, as is still till this day. Power corrupts and absolute power absolutely corrupts. |

The terrorists were asian, and the attacks resulted in a war with China. Clancy was either a war prophet, or he was an illuminatist who knew what was coming and told us before hand. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 3747868 United States 03/04/2014 07:11 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Clancy was very well connected and his books are required reading in military academies. Clancy wrote from a pro-CIA perspective because he was fed the script by the CIA. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 3747868 Really! Required reading ... now that IS interesting I don't have it handy but there was a fairly detailed bio published for Clancy online when he was speaking at a high level consortium of some sort a few years ago that talked about his vast connections within the MIC, dinners with Generals and CIA, his books being used in the academies, etc. It was indeed interesting. Not sure if that bio is still available years later, seeing how the consortium details surely have been scrubbed by now, but worth a google or two based on keywords. To answer another poster's question, I don't have an opinion on his death. I didn't follow the details at the time. |
