It’s a beautiful day in Manhattan as excited tourists board the floating Air & Space Museum on the USS Intrepid—until a horrible explosion rips across the flight deck, showering the body parts of innocent people everywhere. The perpetrator is none other than Captain Ahmed Salehi, an Iranian mastermind whose last terrorism plot was foiled at the last minute by Op-Center. Back in Washington, the White House orders Op-Center disbanded—or so it seems. Unbeknownst to America’s enemies, director Chase Williams has been put in charge of a brand-new, top-secret covert attack team known only as BLACK WASP. Its members, each chosen for their unique set of specialized black-ops skills—martial arts expert Lieutenant Grace Lee, sharpshooter Lance Corporal Jaz Rivette, and JAG attorney and criminologist Major Hamilton Breen—have been assigned to seek out Salehi and finally bring him to justice. But Salehi is part of an even more frightening conspiracy, led by a renegade Iranian tycoon determined to establish a new Islamic State that will dwarf the horrors of ISIS.

| sleeping with the enemy tom clancy: AMERICA The Sleeping Giants MUST Awake John P. Hunter III, 2014-07-30 AMERICA “America is the land of the free and home of the brave”. At least this used to be how it was. Now, it is more like “America is the land of the corrupt and home of the ignorant”. Here we have an uncontrollable disease of corruption at its finest. “WE THE PEOPLE” are simply lacking knowledge or information of who we choose to elect for a government office. Who we think we are voting for just from the looks or what conspires out of their very mouths but do we really know who they are in essence of how they qualify in a particular role of office? In order to justify the means, the book you are about to read will enlighten you as to whom is corrupt and for how long it has been into existence. We will evaluate the circumstances to see why these events or things were corrupted out of revenge or sheer greed of money, to gain power. Some who are mentioned within this book are not so much corrupt but do hold a very thin line of being so. The Constitution pertains to ALL Americans and especially government officials who were elected to make sure our rights are not trampled on regardless of race, religion or place of origin. Whenever these rights are continuously being abused by the representatives of our government then it surely is time for the “Sleeping Giants MUST Awake Again.” (America) There has to be a big change within the entire government ‘system’. It has to take place from city mayors, governors, legislation, federal court system, all the way up to the United States President. Action speaks louder than words, therefore, what actions are taken by our congress people should be monitored closer by the people so our rights are upheld in an honorable fashion. When outsiders other than American citizens are given our constitutional rights, being illegal immigrates and then treason by fault of the U.S. government is in play. IMPEACHMENT is in order to follow through immediately. We can control the corruption if we discontinue the dynasties and take time to investigate whom we are going to vote for better. When any candidate try to change any of the ‘Constitution or ‘Bill of Rights,’ for their own personal needs, it threatens the people of any age groups. It dishonors our flag and country, dishonors other political or religious organizations, camouflaging, misconduct by prejudice, unexplainable expenses for diplomatic reasons while traveling, parties while there is a crisis going on which requires their immediate attention or gives aid to the undeserving before their own kind (Americans) should be impeached immediately with no benefits herewith. ALL must take drug test and have background checks. The law is for everybody no exemption because you happen to be a politician. Only you and I can hope to enforce these rules of conduct, to have a better tomorrow and of human decency for all Americans. IMPEACH OUR FRAUDULENT PRESIDENT ‘BARACK HUSSEIN OBAMA’ |

| sleeping with the enemy tom clancy: Charlie Wilson's War George Crile, 2007-12-01 The bestselling true story of a Texas congressman’s secret role in the Afghan defeat of Russian invaders is “a tour de force of reporting and writing” (Dan Rather). A New York Times, Washington Post, and Los Angeles Times bestseller. Charlie Wilson’s penchant for cocktails and beauty-contest winners was well known, but in the early 1980s, the dilettante congressman quietly conducted one of the most successful covert operations in US history. Using his seat on the House Appropriations Committee, Wilson channeled hundreds of millions of dollars to support a ragged band of Afghan “freedom fighters” in their resistance against Soviet invaders. Weapons were secretly procured and distributed with the help of an outcast CIA operative named Gust Avrakotos, who stretched the agency’s rules to the breaking point. Moving from the back rooms of Washington to secret chambers at Langley, and from arms-dealers’ conventions to the Khyber Pass, Wilson and Avrakotos helped the mujahideen win an unlikely victory against the Russians. Adapted into a film starring Tom Hanks, Julia Roberts, and Philip Seymour Hoffman, Charlie Wilson’s War chronicles an overlooked chapter in the collapse of the Soviet Union—and the emergence of a brand-new foe in the form of radical Islam. “Put the Tom Clancy clones back on the shelf; this covert-ops chronicle is practically impossible to put down. No thriller writer would dare invent Wilson.” —Publishers Weekly “An engaging, well-written, newsworthy study of practical politics and its sometimes unlikely players, and one with plenty of implications.” —Kirkus Reviews |

| sleeping with the enemy tom clancy: Shadow Warriors Tom Clancy, Carl Stiner, Tony Koltz, 2003-02-04 An unconventional war requires unconventional men—the Special Forces. Green Berets • Navy SEALS • Rangers • Air Force Special Operations • PsyOps • Civil Affairs • and other special-mission units The first two Commanders books, Every Man a Tiger and Into the Storm, provided masterly blends of history, biography, you-are-there narrative, insight into the practice of leadership, and plain old-fashioned storytelling. Shadow Warriors is all of that and more, a book of uncommon timeliness, for, in the words of Lieutenant General Bill Yarborough, “there are itches that only Special Forces can scratch.” Now, Carl Stiner—the second commander of SOCOM, the U.S. Special Operations Command—and Tom Clancy trace the transformation of the Special Forces from the small core of outsiders of the 1950s, through the cauldron of Vietnam, to the rebirth of the SF in the late 1980s and 1990s, and on into the new century as the bearer of the largest, most mixed, and most complex set of missions in the U.S. military. These are the first-hand accounts of soldiers fighting outside the lines: counterterrorism, raids, hostage rescues, reconnaissance, counterinsurgency, and psychological operations—from Vietnam and Laos to Lebanon to Panama, to Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, and Iraq, to the new wars of today… |

| sleeping with the enemy tom clancy: Enemy in Sight Nick Ryan, 2021-04-13 Nick Ryan knows his craft, and his topic. His World War 3 stories are tightly-written, fast-moving, with great characters. - LARRY BOND Co-author of Tom Clancy's 'Red Storm Rising' and New York Times bestselling author of 'Red Phoenix' . When the Russian Army invading northern Poland threatens to quickly overwhelm Warsaw, a lone Company of American Abrams tanks and a unit of Irish infantry are sent forward to the small village of Stare Lubiejewo and given an impossible mission; hold back the advancing Russian Army at all costs. Overwhelmed by enemy tanks and APC's, the American tankers and the Irish infantry heroically fight off one determined assault after another until it seems they must surely be over-run. But the American and Irish fighting in the bomb-ravaged village have one last desperate plan up their sleeve. If it works, it might just buy the time the Allies need to reinforce and save the threatened Polish capital... . From the book... The two tanks broke free of the rubble that sheltered them and dashed gamely out into the fields, firing from point-blank range at the enemy troop carriers. A handful of advancing Russian infantry were crushed under their surging steel tracks. Others were scythed down by the Abrams machine guns. Three BMP-3s exploded in quick succession before the first of the enemy APCs slewed round on its spinning steel tracks and began to edge backwards. With the Abrams so close to their own troop carriers, the T-90s on the ridge fell silent, fearful of hitting friendly targets. One of the BMP-3s fired its main gun at an Abrams as it rampaged towards the hedgerow. The round struck the American tank's turret and deflected away harmlessly. Two more APCs fired at the same tank but the Abrams emerged, its sloped steel armor scorched and dented, but intact. The Russian infantry in the fields around the village lost all cohesion; they became just a cluster of desperate men who realized salvation depended on them retreating to the shelter of their troop carriers before the vehicles reversed and fled the field. The soldiers edged backwards, still firing to cover their withdrawal, and glanced nervously over their shoulders, fearful they would be abandoned... |
