Tom Clancy wrote in "Command Authority" EXACTLY what is happening in Crimea now!
Just look/read this image of a page from his last book. The novel "Command Authority" by Clancy & Mark Greaney was released after Clancy's death on December 3rd of last year.

I can't take credit for that pic. I found it on line and knew it needed to be seen here so I posted it. I also have not read the book yet but plan on picking it up the next time I go by a book store.

I have said it before - we are seeing DEBT OF HONOR and RED STORM RISING in play.

Obama is Kielty - a cowardly leftist that drones targets and hates the military.

Just who is going to be our Ryan that saves the day?

and where is John Clark? We need JC!

interesting...also this:

"I am announcing a new trade pact with our friends in the People’s Republic of China. Our two powerful nations will tighten our energy security relationship. We will double oil shipments to China, securing their energy needs for growth, and securing that our markets are made stronger"...“Now that Russia and China have created a new world order, the childish threats of the West will have even less of an effect on us.”

From the book "They will annex the Crimea. From there, if they meet no resistance from the West, they will take more of the country, all the way to the Dnieper River."

That's almost the entire eastern half of Ukraine.

If Russia wants any power or utilities in Crimea, they will have to annex more of Ukraine. As it is now, all the roads to Crimea go through Ukraine. Since nobody did anything against Crimea, they will most likely push forward within the year (sooner rather than later).

That's the thing. It's not. Just an undisclosed, brief illness. Google "clancy tom cause of death" and you won't find it. Just things like, no ones talking, unexpected, and a whole list of theories.

isn't he the guy that wrote splinter cell, where the hero works for some clandestine alphabet agency, going round killing 'the enemy' willy nilly? the same kind of alphabet agency that people on here hate on all day long?

yeah, propaganda hits the nail on the head. I'm glad you're all so awake.

Clancy was killed before the book was released. It hit GLP then as a major "they took him out". It is likely that the book had a major rewrite before it was published.

I got the book the day it was available, and it is playing out exactly as the book says.



End of book spoilers in my next post.

***COMMAND AUTHORITY SPOILERS****

In the book the president of Russia is a former KGB agent, essentially still on a mission, who took over Russia.

Jack Ryan, a former US spook is president of the US.

The US team digs up enough dirt on the criminal (assassin) background of the president of Russia that he is politically forced to back down.

***
Another spoiler -

A "Benghazi" scene takes place where the US embassy in Ukraine is overrun. It is worth buying the book to read this chapter. (spoiler in next line).

Two former US special forces guys are on a "delivery" nearby and hear gunfire. They charge, and turn the battle and rescue the ambassador... except hundreds of enemy solders advance. They are losing. The President gets his 3:00 am phone call for air support...

President Obama already said that he will get very tough with Russia if Putin decides to take more territory than Crimea. Obama is a strong protector for the world and will easily stop Russia using his greatness.
