This game is pretty cool but the imperialist propaganda is grating. I looked up the original Rainbow 6 book and the protagonist is a CIA operative who forms a NATO counter-terrorism group, Rainbow (because they’re so diverse). The bad guys are a group of left wing eco terrorists. At the end, since there won’t be enough evidence to convict the terrorists, he strips them naked and leaves them in the middle of the Amazon to die (since they love nature so much). American culture is so cool, Tom Clancy is our hero.

    The best Tom Clancy book is either "Red Storm Rising" where the Soviets start WW3 because an oil refinery got destroyed, or "Executive Orders" where Jack Ryan becomes president and then immediately enacts a flat tax, and restricts abortion.
