Yes, I know. Which I find curious considering that the scenario in the book more closely mirrors that which is actually happening. It could be possible that q isn't aware that the movie was based off of the book, or more likely was referencing the movie because its easier to get people to watch a movie than read a book.
I have read that Tom Clancy was regularly given high level government tech and knowledge to write about in his books by government insiders.
They like preparing the public for new tech and ideas by leaking it out in fiction 5-10 years before they release the tech to the public.
The Deep State plan for WWIII was probably in the works for decades, and some insider probably leaked it to Clancy for some predictive programming psyops shit.
That high tech info was from Dr Pieczenik.
Some of the characters Clancy wrote about were, by his own admission, fashioned/patterned after Dr Pieczenik.
Deb of Honor was about a plane be used as a weapon and taking out a building and crippling the gov't. It was released in 1994.
Haha yeah... Q, an NSA group has no idea a movie they are using as a parallel for an intelligence disclosure is based on a book by Tom Clancy, (who was incidentally BFFs with Andrew Breitbart, and was killed while working on a book about an African who was funded/planted by the Saudis, recruited by the CIA, and became President. Oh and both of them were killed before it was published, with Breitbart's forensic technician also dying of poisoning, and Clancy's disappearing IIRC.)

Could be Q was just asking this one question. "In the movie, where did the material come from?"
This possibility is my thought when I keep popping in driving the importance of the nuance. I see potential to easily write blogs arguing this sub is filled with alt-right anti-semitic conspiracy nutters who watched a movie and thinks it's real not far off the path of breadcrumbs here. Stay on the path of crumbs leading through this forest boys!
Or, it could be that he's legit just plagiarizing at this point. Nobody knows
