Well Done!

Seriously.

I am going to enlist in about 18 months. I just wanted to let you know that someone else is out there who supports the War on Terror.

that was pathetic if it was suppost to reresent even a slightly possable course of events, but as a total work of fiction-WOW awsome!

guy below me is right

This is everything that is wrong in America's view point of the world. You clearly have no knowledge of international politics: the reason why Israel has problems is because Ariel Sharron is a right-wing nutcase and because he goes in hard against the Palstinans they get pissed off and attack Israel, Sharron sends in F15 to blow up Palstinans homes and suicide bombers go in Israel and the violence cirule continues. Also killing Yasser Arafat would be the worst thing the Israeli could do because their main figure head is dead and most Palstinans would want reveage.

Second is Iran: no way any American government would determent every Iranian mosque to be destory and move like that could make Iranian and Muslims around the world become more radical. It also wried because doesn't America's constition protect freedoms? Another thing you need to read Excutive Orders to see what happens to Iran and Iraq in the Tom Clancy world.

Lastly you idea of basically invasing every Muslim country in the world would overstrect the American forces, divid alliances and make Muslim more radical, not less: just look whats happening in Iraq.

Basically become more sentenable and do some reseach into history, politics, sociology and psychology.

A note is that christain fundamentalism is any better then any other religion.

Great story and don't listen to people who tell you crazy things like americans should die and you are racist. I have had three relatives in Afganistan and two of them were shot by the Taliban "freedom" fighters. The other one still there as an Army Ranger, and people there on the streets thank him everyday for getting rid of there terrorist leaders.

Your note was a little off, pal. You underestimated the rest of us again, because plenty of patriotic songs have been written about fighting terrorists, and I’m sure more are coming.

An exceptionally written story, but downright Islamophobic. What the hell do you have against the Palestinians? If this were to take place in the real world I'd think that Arafat had a point.

something rather pointless to talk about now, but ding's last words were chilling even now. allah of islam is the same god of abraham and the bible and unless you don't believe in that god either, that's extremely sacrireligious and offensive, esp. when you're talking about bombing all the mosques in iran...geez, maybe this WAS written after september 11, but even that persepective it is extrememly racist/anti-muslim.

Great story, and well written. I wish all the stuff on read this way. Don't pay any attention to what that "GrainedPlanet" asshole said.

Too bad your talent had to be put to such shit, this war has to be fought? American bullshit, pure patriotic bullshit, what happend on september 11th was a glorious day to the enemies of America, I will smile at every innocent death, and laugh at every American who dies, it's a shame the worst of the fighting is over, never mind the Al Quaheda will kill off some more of you, sweet dreams America,

GrainedPlanet

Well written, good action

Don't listen to that moron. This story says exactly what so many are thinking. "Alluah Akhbar, Motherfucker.
Normally I'm a pretty mild-mannered person, almost a pacifist, but I ESPECIALLY liked the part in the middle where you said talked about 'Defining the term Holy War'

two words, you bigoted motherfucker: christian coalition. Nice propaganda piece though, I must admit, you motherfucking neonazi bitch faggot!

Clancy has always been one of my favorite authors since busting onto the scene with Red October. You have managed here to catch the professional, precise style present in most of his writings. And Ding's final words? Priceless. Wonderful catharsis for the events of 9/11.
Here's hoping you'll find inspiration for more!

The way we should've responded to the 9-11 attacks can be summarized in two words: Hydrogen Bomb. Honest to God I think we should've burned 25% of our stockpile on all those raghead terrorists, which would guarintee that they're dead. If anyone else shares these views I'm working on fics of my own that you might find interesting. Still, good fic. -QC
