为什么值得读
- 提前七年预见了类似九一一袭击的恐怖手法
- 描写客机被当作致命飞行武器袭击国会
故事始于东京后街一名美国女性的被杀，最终以战争收场……畅销书榜首作家 Tom Clancy 大胆而敏锐地审视了我国领导人所谓的“世界新秩序”。时间和地点：一个处于和平中的世界，昨日的宿敌成了明日的盟友。关键人物：作为新任美国总统国家安全顾问的 Jack Ryan，以及他的 CIA 同事 John Clark 和 Domingo Chavez。危机降临：一连串令人震惊的连锁事件表明，和平的代价与战争一样错综复杂——且具有毁灭性。

在我看来，汤姆·克兰西（Tom Clancy）是个有远见的人。他在 9/11 发生前七年就预言了它。他写了一部虚构小说（《Debt of Honor》），讲一个飞行员用自己的飞机作为武器袭击国会联席会议。这警示了我们客机被用作巨型导弹的风险。我们没放在心上，这可不是他的错。
To me, Tom Clancy was a visionary. He predicted 9/11 seven years before it happened. He did this by writing a fictional story (Debt of Honor) about a pilot that uses his plane as a weapon to attack a joint session of Congress. This warned us about the risk of passenger jets being used as giant missiles. It's not his fault we didn't pay attention.
如果他们忽视了一个在七年前的畅销小说《Debt of Honor》中就被生动描绘过的威胁，那可真是太让人震惊了。
It would be startling if they overlooked a threat vividly described in a best-selling novel seven years before, Debt of Honor.
有「连续性行动」程序来防止「斩首」打击杀死总统和副总统，从而防止美国无法报复 [0]。这是 Tom Clancy 的小说《Debt of Honor》[1] 中的一个情节（我清楚地记得是在 911 之前读的，因为我得坐公共交通通勤，通勤时间太长，我就读书）。0 - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Designated_survivor 因为……
There are "continuity of operations" procedures to prevent a "decapitation" strike killing the President & VP, thus preventing the US from retaliating [0]. This was a plot point in Tom Clancy's novel Debt of Honor [1] (which I distinctly remember reading right before 911, as I had to commute via public transit and commutes were so long I read books). 0 - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Designated_survivor Since…
……故意开飞机撞击目标以实施摧毁（神风特攻队），劫持民航客机撞击国家地标的具体设想（法国航空 8969 号班机，以及虚构作品中汤姆·克兰西的《Debt of Honor》等），以及通过摧毁世贸中心杀死数千人的具体设想（1993 年爆炸案）。我们能想出恐怖分子杀害数千人的各种手段，而人们……
…crashing airplanes into things on purpose to destroy them (kamikazes), the specific idea of hijacking a commercial airliner to crash it into a national landmark (Air France 8969, and in fiction, Tom Clancy's Debt of Honor among others), and the specific idea of killing thousands of people by destroying the World Trade Center (1993 bombing). We can come up with ways for terrorists to kill thousands of people, and people…
（剧透警告）汤姆·克兰西 1994 年的小说《Debt of Honor》结尾处，一架 747 客机撞向了国会大厦，这可以说是虚构作品与现实最接近的一次了。
(Spoilers) The end of Tom Clancy's 1994 book "Debt of Honor" featured a 747 being crashed into the Capital, which is about as close as fiction gets.
没错。书里描述的情况几乎一模一样。我敢打赌 Pianka 肯定读过《彩虹六号》。克兰西的《Debt of Honor》里，一名二战日本老飞行员劫持了一架 747，在总统发表国情咨文期间撞向国会大厦，摧毁了美国政府三权中的两权。让我不寒而栗的是……
Yep. Almost exactly the same situation was described in the book. I'd bet Pianka has read "Rainbow Six". Clancy's "Debt of Honor" had a former Japanese WWII pilot hijack a 747 and fly it into the Capitol during the President's State of the Union address, destroying 2 of the 3 branches of the U.S. government. It spooks me that…
