In "Debt of Honour" an aeroplane is flown into the US Capital building - OK, not the WTC, but the Plane that crashed in PA may have been heading there.
In "Executive Orders", Clancy describes the shutdown of the Stock Exchange and much of Washington due to a suicide pilot hitting the capital city - see above.
In the same book, he talks of "an Islamic Coalition" threatening the United States.
Again, in "Executive Orders", Clancy talks of a President (Jack Ryan), who is both unwilling and unable to do the job, but ultimately succeeds - anyone see a parallel?
And in "Cardinal of the Kremlin", there is a lot of text devoted to the Mujaheddin in Afghanistan.
Is this just coincidence? Yes, but his next book "The Bear and the Dragon" talks of Nuclear war with the Chinese - presonally, I'm moving to Tristan Da Cuhna just to be sure!
