    Tom Clancy’s ‘Debt of Honor’ features nearly the entirety of the US government being wiped out:

    Supreme Court, House Representatives, Senators, President and most of his cabinet… are all present at a State of the Union Address.

    And then a 747 is flown by terrorists into the Capitol building.

    In the book, the main character Jack Ryan, the Vice President, is basically running late, and is the only senior officer of government to survive.

    Book came out in 94, before 9/11.
